Study in Perth
The largest city on the Australian west coast and the fourth largest in the country. It is in full expansion and offers a great quality of life that students appreciate.
It is known for being smaller and more isolated than Australia’s other cities. But its liveability makes up for what it lacks in accessibility and size. The friendly people and unbeatable value make it a coast gem for those who want the beach lifestyle.
Located on the banks of Swan River, which through city life goes by and it is just a step away from hundreds of natural paradises of unique nature and virgin beaches of crystal clear water perfect for surfing.
Western Australia is also home to the quokka, a short-tailed scrub wallaby that loves selfies and pictures. In addition, you can also get on the ferry to visit Rottnest Island and enjoy the views of King´s Park and the Botanical Gardens.
