The Center for International Studies has a strong reputation for helping students to study abroad. Founded in Europe in 1991, CIS has sent more than 3,000 students abroad since its inception. Because our U.S. office is part of a larger, international organization, we understand the importance of the study and living abroad experience. Since our establishment, our philosophy has remained the same: give students exceptional, personalized service, at an affordable price, and ensure a memorable study abroad experience in all respects. Whether your goal is to study for one semester, an entire year, or for the duration of your degree, CIS can help you to become a more educated, global citizen.
Study Abroad Programs
The Australian university you select for your study abroad experience is a very important decision and one that we want to help you with. The staff at CIS has extensive knowledge of all of the participating universities and is available to answer any questions or concerns you have during the selection process. Among our partners you will find a mix of institutions and course offering that can fit your academic and social needs. While the range of institutions and locations is varied, all of the institutions we work with do have certain criteria in common: high quality, excellent customer service, and a safe, friendly environment in which to live and learn.

Courses of Study
As we work with a wide range of university partners in Australia, you will be able to choose from hundreds of different subjects and will certainly be able to find classes that will transfer back to fulfill your major, minor and elective requirements. From unique offerings such as Aboriginal Studies and Marine Sciences, to core classes in Business, Liberal Arts and Sciences, you will be able to find the unique and individual offerings that meet your educational goals.
Full Degree Programs
Additionally, if you are interested in seeking a degree we can assist you at all levels (Bachelor, Master and Doctoral). The same services that we offer our study abroad students will be given to degree seeking students and our services are free of charge for this support.
Serving Your Individual Needs
From the moment you contact CIS, an experienced staff member will begin working with you to ensure that you are well prepared for your Australian experience. We will play an integral role by becoming the liaison between you, your home institution, and the Australian university. Here is what we will do for you:
- Assist in processing your application and student visa
- Advise you about course selection, credit transfer, financial aid and work entitlements while you're abroad
- Counsel you regarding pre-departure issues ensuring that you are well prepared
- Provide options for inexpensive travel arrangements and health/travel insurance
- Arrange accommodation that fits your needs and budget
Additionally, as part of any program you select, we will give you a personal pre-departure orientation, meet you and take you to your accommodation upon arrival in Australia, provide you with an orientation at your host university, and give you an International Student Identity Card (ISIC) which gives you discounts on air travel, road travel, concerts, movies and much more. So, if you're thinking of studying abroad, take the first step of your 'journey' by contacting us at CIS. We look forward to working with you.
