This year, we proudly hosted three Agent Familiarisation Trips, welcoming agents from China, Vietnam, Indonesia, Singapore, and Malaysia to Perth and UWA. These visits provided a firsthand experience of our vibrant campus and the city of Perth, giving our partners the chance to experience UWA’s unique offerings and build stronger connections with us. We look forward to seeing more of you in Perth soon and sharing everything that makes UWA and our city an exceptional destination for students.Another highlight of 2024 has been the success of our UWA Academic Roadshows, held across Bangladesh, Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand, India, and China. Like our Open Days in Indonesia, these roadshows have allowed UWA academics to engage directly with students, parents, and agents in key regions, showcasing the academic excellence and innovative opportunities that define UWA. Furthermore the UWA team has remained engaged across Europe, Latin America, USA, Canada, Africa and the Middle East to ensure UWA attracts and maintains diversity in its international student cohort. On behalf of the entire Future Students team, I extend my heartfelt gratitude for your ongoing dedication and support in representing UWA. May you and your loved ones enjoy a safe and joyful festive season, and I look forward to continuing our partnership to inspire and achieve even greater success in 2025.Thank you again for your continued support in 2024.
