WHAT MAKES US AN EDUCATION CONSULTANT?

We offer a wide range of services that facilitate the student through the exchange process.
Our services include:

• Short, medium and long term study planning, according to the students goals and their financial capacity.

• Advice and sale of English language courses, technical courses and university courses that best meet the student's objectives.

• Enrolment in schools, arranging the compulsory health insurance.

• Guidance in preparing the documents required in the process of obtaining the student visa.

• Accommodation booking for your first month in Australia.

• Providing useful information and travel recommendations before travelling to Australia such as: what documents to bring, how much money to bring to support you while you’re not working, the types of clothes you will need here as well as guidance on Australian culture.

• Special assistance for students who bring family, including children.

SO WHAT SETS US APART?

We offer a very special ‘Local Support’ service to both our students and their families. This service is a phone number they can call 24/7 asking for anything they may need help with during their stay in Australia

We understand how comforting it is for students and family to know that in times of need, no matter the day or time, help is available with just one phone call.

WHAT WE DO AS IMMIGRATION CONSULTANTS

We work with the ongoing support of three immigration agents to provide personal advice and assistance to our students helping them to prepare documents, make applications and manage the process for obtaining a Student visa, Graduate, Business, Investor, Training, Permanent Residence, Defacto, Working Holiday and many other types of visas.

We also investigate the options for students wishing to stay permanently in Australia and prepare a strategic plan for obtaining permanent residence.

We are also able to provide special assistance to families with children, whose parents want to come to Australia either to study or for permanent residence.

To accommodate our single students when they arrive in Australia, we work with some large local accommodation companies who manage home shares (accommodation) and rooms in a family home (home stay).

For students who come with family we work with a group of budget hotels who can provide accommodation while you’re looking for a flat or a house according to your taste and convenience. The search for housing families can be done by the family themselves or, if they prefer, they can hire the services of a professional who is experienced in accompanying newcomer families. In our database we have the details for several of these professionals experienced in assisting students and their families. Let us know if you would like to speak them.

Superstudent pioneered in Australia the system to give formal support to students to help them gain entry into the workforce. This system has successfully been in operation for 12 years already and it is with great pride and joy that we have today, among our former students, business leaders and successful professionals whose first job was accomplished by our agency. This success is the end result of good planning, focus, and determination to achieve what you came to Australia for.

Our support services to find jobs include:

• Preparation of resume
• Referral for training courses
• Guidance on how to seek employment and establish contacts
• Contact with employers
• Interview scheduling
• Coaching and interview techniques
• And many more

We cannot guarantee that you will be provided with a job as we are not the employers, however, we can promise that we will help our students to the best of our ability to get work in Australia, according to their competence and experience.

Australian universities offer three types of higher education: bachelor’s degree, master’s degree and doctorate. The double bachelor degree programs are very common, especially in the areas of Humanities, Business, Law and Sciences, the end of which students get two diplomas.
