ADELAIDE CITYWhy Adelaide?Students can truly immerse themselves in Australian culture by studying and socialising with local and other international students, while still earning valuable academic credit from a prestigious Australian university and exploring some of South Australia’s best cultural landmarks. Students will be surprised at how quickly they can ‘feel at home’ in the beautiful compact city of Adelaide.
Students will be amazed by the beauty and variety of nature found in South Australia, all within short reach of Adelaide. Lush hills to the east, white sandy beaches to the west, dusty outback to the north, and rugged coastline to the south mean that they will never tire of exploring their Australian home, even in the cooler winter months.
Outstanding locationThe University of Adelaide is located in the cultural heart of Adelaide, the capital city of South Australia. The University’s attractive main campus is situated in the centre of Adelaide’s thriving retail, dining, and cultural district, bordered by the Art Gallery, Museum, State Library, Festival Centre, Botanic Gardens, Central Business District, and the River Torrens - an ideal location for local and international students alike.
Known for its pleasant Mediterranean climate, thriving economy, dynamic cultural scene, and affordable cost of living, Adelaide offers an enviable lifestyle in an environment that is ideal for study and recreation. Adelaide has a high standard of living at a relatively low cost, 20% less than its east coast counterparts like Sydney or Melbourne. It is an attractive, friendly, safe, and well-planned city of wide streets and boulevards, squares, parklands, and a mixture of historic and modern buildings. With a population of 1.3 million people, Adelaide is Australia’s fifth largest city.
OrientationStudents will be provided with a comprehensive Orientation Program, including a tour of the University of Adelaide campus and also the city and surrounds of Adelaide. Student cards will be issued to students after arrival. This will allow access to all University facilities including computer labs, the University library, and the many clubs on campus. Student cards also provide discounts for students on public transport, at some restaurants, cinemas, and other popular student activities.

ACCOMMODATIONHomestayDuring their time at the English Language Centre, students may choose to stay in homestay accommodation in an Australian family home, allowing them to experience Australian family life and culture. Like most modern societies, Australian households vary.
A homestay family does not necessarily mean a two-parent family with children. Hosts may be single individuals, married couples, single parents with children, couples or partners with or without children. Backgrounds vary greatly. Typically host families have an interest in sharing their own culture with others and are eager to learn about other cultures.
The University will endeavour to match students with like-minded families (i.e. pets/no pets, like music, like sport, smoking/nonsmoking, etc.). Homestay accommodation will be located near public transport which students can catch to and from the University. Students will have their own bedroom and will be provided with breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day.
Urbanest at the University of AdelaideLiving with Urbanest at the University of Adelaide offers Waseda University students the opportunity to base themselves in the heart of Adelaide’s shopping precinct and across the road from the University’s main campus.
Purpose-built with students in mind, the property offers studios and shared apartment options, shared exclusively with University of Adelaide students from all over the world, in a building managed by the University’s preferred student accommodation provider. With all-inclusive rents that include electricity, water, unlimited internet, and contents insurance, Urbanest offers a convenient, safe, and great value option for a perfect study experience in Adelaide.
The building features a fully equipped gym, study rooms, a rooftop terrace with BBQs, a cinema room and games room, secure bike storage, 24/7 dedicated onsite team, swipe card access, and more. Urbanest rooms are designed specifically with the student lifestyle in mind and to suit a range of budgets. Rooms include unlimited wireless internet and reverse-cycle air conditioning.

SUPPORT, FACILITIES, AND CONTACTSSupport ServicesFrom the moment students arrive, the University of Adelaide has a range of high quality support services designed to help international students settle in quickly and succeed in their studies.
Students who have chosen homestay will be met at the airport by their host families when they arrive. All other students can take a taxi from the airport. If they are staying at University accommodation, they can be met at the airport by a University of Adelaide representative and taken to their chosen accommodation.
International Student SupportThe International Student Support area is responsible for ongoing support of international students. Their services include general counselling, assistance with student issues, and welfare support.
Additional Support ServicesIn addition to the International Student Support’s Student Advisors, the University also operates the Counselling Centre on campus, which is staffed by professional counsellors. Located next to the Counselling Centre is the University Health Service, which provides standard medical practice and advice. These services are available to all students.
Student FacilitiesThe University of Adelaide has a state-of-the art, 24-hour student facility known as Hub Central. The Hub offers food and retail outlets, student services, study and relaxation areas, and bookable group study rooms. This flexible space is well-utilised by both local and international students.
LibraryWith over 2.2 million print and electronic resources, the Library is well placed to support learning, teaching, and research at the University of Adelaide. Students can take advantage of a number of services including wireless internet access, individual or group study areas, 24 hour computer suites, photocopiers, and an inter-library loan service.
Student ClubsIn addition to those facilities offered by Hub Central, the Adelaide University Union provides a variety of on-campus eating places, a bar, a bookstore, and theatre facilities.
