STUDENT SUPPORT SERVICES

KIMT supports the students with services that make their life in Australia comfortable. Some of the significant services rendered are:

Accommodation and Airport Pickup Service

Students can prefer to make their own accommodation arrangement.  In case the student needs accommodation to be arranged, KIMT recommends Global Experience and Homestay. A minimum booking of four weeks at a Homestay will guarantee you somewhere to stay upon arrival, while you make more definite arrangements. Airport pickup can be arranged with accommodation.  Two Homestay Providers:

  • Brisbane Educational Consultants & Brokers (BECAB) and
  • Homestay Brisbane

Further information regarding the services provided by these two agencies and the associated costs, can be obtained by contacting these respective providers directly and visiting their respective websites for further information.
