What is the international student community like at the university?
BASc in Occupational Therapy (Honours)
The international student community at Western is diverse and close-knit. Most of the international students I know are very interested in each other’s culture and open to experiencing it through events and celebrations, foods, and learning some words in the language. The international student community is huge, especially at our Parramatta campuses - you will never not see an international student in a day at campus during semester! Western Sydney University has a range of student clubs for these communities - if you cannot find a club of your country/ethnicity you can always start one! In fact, my friends and I did ☺️ The events held by these clubs are also open to all Western Sydney University students. For instance, you can still join any events held by the Indonesian Students Society even if you’re not Indonesian. Meet Indonesian students, learn the culture, taste their food, pick up one or two Indonesian words, or attend simply to have a wonderful time! Most, if not all, of the international students at Western will be happy to give you a hand if they can - be it giving you directions when you’re navigating our spacious campuses, leading you to the Student Services Hub or classes, recommending good coffee and sushi - you are in good hands 😊 Can’t wait to see you on campus so you can experience all this yourself!
