University students
University student groups can study English in a closed special class or join in general classes based on their English abilities at the University of Wollongong College (UOW College). UOW College is located at the University of Wollongong and shares the facilities of the university (library, sports centre, cafeteria, bar etc).

Junior high school and senior high school students
Recommended option: Local high schools - 7th to 12th grade

- At a local high school, students can study English separately in a closed class with highly-trained ESL teachers. To add to their exciting learning experience, students have the opportunity to take part in activities and cultural classes with local students.

- We arrange host families from the local schools, so the students can have more time to get to know their host brothers/sisters.

Homestay Accommodation
- Our local households love to introduce Wollongong and Australian living to overseas visitors. The families spend time interacting with students, feeding them delicious meals, and looking after them.

- All members of the families who are over 18 years old have been checked. The host families agree with ARET's terms and conditions where the students become part of the household participating in everyday Australian life.

- The students are usually individually placed with families for maximum English practice but can be paired if requested.

"I have been hosting exchange students for 19 years. ARET make it a stress free and pleasurable experience for both students and families involved. My family has maintained many friendships which are still ongoing and have plans to make many more."
Terri Scott (Homestay Mother, Horsley NSW)

"Hello everyone! I had a wonderful time in Australia for one month. Before leaving Japan, I was a little nervous because this was the first time to go abroad. I spent a great time with host family for 4 weeks. They were very kind to me and I was happy to stay with them. On the weekend, I swam in the sea, did BBQ at the beach, went shopping, making meal, and so on. I enjoyed not only studying at Wollongong University but also sightseeing- Blue Mountain, Kiama, and throwing boomerang, visiting the elementary school to introduce Japanese culture. I want to thank Pam. She helped me to enjoy Australia. I love Wollongong!! Thank you."
