Managing the transition to life in Australia and New Zealand

Much of our early support involves carefully and actively helping you to adapt to life in a new country. We have helped thousands of students through their initial excitement, confusion with transport or money, learning of new social customs and possible homesickness. We know what to expect and how to help. We will ensure that you, like the thousands we have already helped, will come to love and embrace life in Australia or New Zealand.

Caregiver services for under 18 year olds

If you are under the age of 18, you are required to have a Caregiver. Taylors Caregivers are contracted to provide a list of services to you and your parents, including an initial contact visit followed by regular contact by telephone.

Care & support

We have a well-established network of people and a range of programs in place to advise and assist students with problems associated with study, health issues, career and personal matters. Each campus has a Student Welfare Coordinator who is available to assist with a variety of academic and personal problems. These counsellors monitor academic progress and assist wherever necessary.

Health & Insurance

Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) - Australia If you choose to study in Australia, you must have OSHC. OSHC ensures you have adequate health care arrangements whilst you are studying in Australia. Taylors College will arrange your OSHC with your enrolment.
