About

Who are we?

UMSU International is the official representative body for all international students at the University of Melbourne. Whether you are an undergraduate or graduate, whether you study abroad or are an exchange student, we are your voice on campus! 🌏💙

We provide representation, peer support and events such as International Brekkie, Night Market, and PR/Visa Workshop. We also advocate for international students, primarily through our International Student Survey (find the 2022 and 2023 ISS Reports here).
