The undergraduate program
International students
Apart from paying fees, international students are treated in the same
way as Australian students. There is a large range of support services
available at Monash to assist international students and details of these, plus
pre-departure information and information on studying at Monash and living in
Melbourne, are outlined in a comprehensive `Handbook for international
students' prepared and distributed by the Monash International Office. For
advice and assistance with queries relating to their studies or any personal
issues, students are encouraged to discuss the matter with an appropriate
member of the Law faculty staff who, depending on the nature of the concern,
may be a member of the academic staff, the subdean or an administrative
officer.
English language difficulties
International students who are experiencing difficulty with the English
language should consult the subdean or the administrative officer
(undergraduate studies) in the first instance who can refer them to a range of
language and learning assistance programs on campus (many of them free). For
example, the counselling service at Clayton offers an English conversation
group as well as other programs on topics such as time management, preparation
for exams, difficulties in returning to study after a prolonged time away,
essay writing and so on. Telephone 905 3156.
