Many international students traveling and studying in Australia will want to have a private health insurance plan in place for the full duration of their time abroad. It’s important to think about what type of coverage you’ll need and if you plan to do any international traveling. Many students apply for a travel medical insurance coverage for Australia so that they will be covered in case the unexpected happens. Whether you get sick, need emergency care, or need evacuation coverage, international travel medical insurance can help you.
Australia has a special health insurance coverage for international students called Overseas Student Health Cover (OSCH). This insurance is required while on your student visa in Australia – however what happens if you travel to another country? Or, if you need more comprehensive coverage?

Australia offers international students a unique experience filled with high quality universities (or "unis"), natural habitat, and friendly, charismatic people. This continent is known as being one of the wealthiest and highly developed countries in the world. As the 12th-largest economy, over 400,000 students from around the globe chose to study in Australia. And who can blame them when there is so much to do and see? From the Sydney Opera House to Ayers Rock to the Great Barrier Reef – international students will find that there isn’t enough time to see it all.
If you are an international student interested in learning more about what it is like to live in Australia, check out our Living in Australia resource section. Here you will learn about the climate, people, places, culture, visa requirements and more.
One of the benefits of being an international student in Australia is that you have permission to work part-time while completing your degree. Australia, unlike other countries, gives those with a student visa automatic permission to work. International students must find a job on their own, but once hired, they will gain hands-on experience in a number of fields including retail, administration, and hospitality. Not only is this a unique opportunity for students to gain real work-experience in Australia, but it also helps students cover their living and college expenses as well as improves their business English fluency.
If you are interested in Working in Australia, we can help provide you with information on visa requirements, working permissions, landing a job and more.

With our discount student airfare deals, we make sure that you purchase the best flight saving you hundreds – or even thousands – of dollars.
