An International Welcome program is held for all Undergraduate and Postgraduate students before the start of each semester.

All students are required to attend. You will be advised of the commencement date of your Welcome Program in your offer letter and in subsequent information sent to you.

Enrolment

Enrolment is one of the most important parts of the Welcome Program. It is a good idea to start planning your study program by visiting our faculty websites and reading the UWA Handbook for course and unit information.
