All the School's facilities are for the use of graduate students only. Students enjoy access 24/7 to student meeting rooms, a student lounge, a postgraduate study area equipped with modern computers, printers, and unlimited internet access.

Teaching rooms and lecture theatres are modern and well equipped.

Services: A wide range of facilities and support services cater for students' study, cultural, sporting and social needs.

Adelaide is a cosmopolitan city, easy to get around and inexpensive. The cost of living in Adelaide, particularly the cost of accommodation, is significantly lower than in Melbourne or Sydney.

Services include a Bridging Program to help international students assimilate to their new environment, this Program focuses on academic writing, oral presentation and includes an introduction to the teaching and learning methods used in class. It will help you to progress from a high level of general English proficiency to specific competence for business study.

Student Learning Support
Beyond the Bridging Program, ongoing support is available from the School's Student Learning Support Co-ordinator. This takes many forms and includes links to relevant web resources, individual intense coaching in critical thinking and effective reading and advice on referencing, linguistic expression, grammar and report writing. You may submit assignments electronically to the Student Learning Support Co-ordinator for constructive advice and editing recommendations.

Support is also available from the University's Learning and Teaching Development Unit. They offer free academic skills workshops and conversation tutorials for students. A conversation tutorial provides opportunities for speaking practice by discussing issues in tertiary study. Other workshop topics include: writing essays; writing in an academic style; planning and revising for exams; learning styles and strategies; and meeting academic expectations.

Orientation
At the beginning of each trimester an Orientation session is led by the Dean of the School. It includes a tour of the School and familiarisation with available resources such as timetables, program handbooks, library and computing resources. It deals with language, social customs and cultural issues and provides relevant advice about student enquiry arrangements. These sessions create an opportunity for you learn about the School and to meet staff and fellow students.

Other support is available, for example help to find suitable accommodation, advice on banking, shopping, library use and advice on Health Cover. For more information, check the {{University website}} for prospective international students.

You may join the University's Overseas Students Association and the Sports Association.
