International Education for Overseas Muslim Students

Western Australia has a long tradition of welcoming international Muslim students from around the globe. Whether studying at university, college, secondary or primary school, all Western Australian institutions provide a strong and supportive environment to those with Islamic values.

There are several Islamic primary and secondary schools which provide high quality education with a strong focus on Islamic studies. Tertiary institutions have multi-faith chaplaincy services and Muslim prayer rooms, as well as friendly counsellors who can link students with members of the Islamic faith.

Teachers and lecturers are dedicated, culturally aware and sometimes multi-lingual, allowing international students to feel comfortable and accepted in their classrooms.

Homestay families and student hostels are experienced in catering to international students and can ensure that religious practices and dietary requirements are respected. Parents can be confident that their child will receive the encouragement, patience and understanding needed when they are away from their own family and country.

Western Australia’s educational institutions are world-class and world-renowned. Each campus teaches fully accredited, quality assured courses that have been assessed and approved under Australian and Western Australian Government legislation.

The State has five universities and a wide variety of English language colleges, vocational colleges, and secondary schools that host over 42,000 international student enrolments per annum from over 140 countries.

Muslim students will find everything they need in Western Australia to achieve both their personal and professional goals.
