Coming to Australia
Moving overseas to study is a life-changing and exciting decision and there are many important factors to consider. James Cook University (JCU) gives you the advice you need to prepare well in advance of your arrival to set yourself up for success as a student in Australia.

The JCU International Student Guide (PDF, 1930 KB) contains all the information you will need to make sure that you are well-prepared for your arrival overseas.
