It’s time to plan and prepare for your move to Sydney. Here’s some things to sort out before you arrive.
We are running informational webinars for international students to help you prepare for your first semester at the University of Sydney. Current students and staff will share advice on what to expect from academic study, how to settle into student life, and the services and support available to help you succeed.
Whether you’re coming from school, work, family life or another university, these webinars are a great opportunity to learn more about starting your studies and ask questions before semester begins.
Register to attend one of the webinars on the following dates. All sessions cover the same content, so you can choose the session that best suits your schedule.

You can make a reservation for the airport shuttle through 2Airport’s online booking portal. A booking confirmation will be sent to your nominated email address.
If your arrival in Sydney is delayed due to visa processing and falls outside the scheduled timeframes, please contact us as soon as possible. Once we receive your request, we will coordinate with the Airport Shuttle team to update your booking and arrange your airport pickup for your new arrival date.
The service area covers several suburbs in the Greater Sydney region. To check if your address is within the service area, open the booking form and select the "i" symbol next to the destination address field. Once you type your destination address, the green button at the bottom of the booking form will display 'Book - Free' if your address is valid and within the free service area.
If you need help completing the booking form, or your destination is not listed or supported, use the live chat option on the 2airport website.
Each passenger is allowed 2 carry-on items and 2 baggage items. If you bring more than this, you'll need to pay for the extra bags yourself.
You'll be able to make changes to your booking using the link that will be in your confirmation email.
If you have any questions about the free airport shuttle service, please contact the University online by completing the Living in Sydney enquiry form.
Have you thought about where you'd like to live once you get to Sydney and how much it will cost? Before you leave home, explore all the housing options available so you can find the right one for you, know how to protect yourself when renting, and work out how much money you'll need while you study.
