USA

Coming from the United States, I was unsure what the “Australian college experience” would be like. However, after my first day at International House (during which all us IHers engaged in an epic dodgeball tournament), I knew I had made the right decision.

Since being at IH, I have been able to engage with people both from countries I have visited and places I have never even heard of. Being at IH helps you develop a new kind of intercultural communication and understanding.

Non Residential Programs

International House non-residential program

Our non-residential program will offer places to twenty students enrolled in their first year of an undergraduate course at the University of Melbourne. Local students studying Asian languages, international studies and or inter-cultural communication; or who are interested in internationalism and working globally should find the program particularly attractive.

The program will offer participants the opportunity to


  • socialise with members of a culturally diverse and vibrant community
  • participate in the college's academic tutorial program (per semester - two weekly tutorials during the teaching period, one examination prep tutorial and up to three hours of consultation time)
  • receive support for the study of a wide range of languages other than English (this would be of particular benefit for local students studying Asian languages)
  • use the facilities of the college such as its social areas, library, gym and tennis court
  • dine in the college up to forty times each semester
  • participate in the College's co-curricular activities including drama and music

Fee $600 per semester
