What stands out for me as an international student at Flinders is you will be supported.

Flinders has given me a lot of chances for my development – it’s true. I have made a lot of friends here. When I return to my country and organisation, all the learnings, knowledge, and experience – everything – I want to give back. That’s my aim here, why I study in Australia. Because I am a student with a purpose and a heart. So, for me, I could not ask for more from Flinders University.
