Why Perth?
Perth offers one of the highest standards of living in the world, and yet is more affordable than the UK and the USA. As a full time student, you will receive a 40% discount on all public transport, and buses within the central business districts of Perth, Joondalup and Fremantle are free for everyone!
The city enjoys a Mediterranean climate with blue skies and excellent unspoilt beaches. The climate encourages a range of outdoor activities. Perth also has a relatively low crime rate compared to other major cities, making its campuses, transport and city streets safe and secure.
Perth is ideally located in the same time zone as Beijing, Hong Kong, Shenzhen, Singapore and Chongqing which makes it convenient for travelling and keeping connected with family and friends.
