Surry Hills, just south of Sydney's CBD, is one of the city's most popular suburbs, with cafés, restaurants and historic terrace houses. Its location within walking distance of the centre makes language schools easy to reach.
Some of the language schools NGGlobal offers in Surry Hills:
Students staying in Surry Hills can reach language schools in central Sydney on foot or with a short public transport ride.
How long you study depends on your goal: 2-4 weeks for a short summer course, 3-6 months for fluent communication and usually 6-12 months for a university pathway. Programs that require a student visa usually run for at least 12 weeks.
Fees vary from school to school, and university-based language programs and private language schools can sit in different price ranges. Planning your course, accommodation and airport transfer together lowers the total cost. Ask NGGlobal for a quote with current prices and discounts.
Language schools accept students all year round. For programs requiring a student visa, the CoE, health cover and visa processing take time, so plan several months ahead. December to February, the Australian summer, is the busiest period.
Your visa type depends on the length of your course: a visitor visa for up to 3 months, and a student visa for longer programs. Turkish citizens aged 18-30 may also apply for a Work and Holiday visa under certain conditions, which allows up to 4 months of study. NGGlobal helps you choose the right visa.
Students in Australia on a student visa may work up to 48 hours per fortnight during their course and unlimited hours during scheduled breaks. Working on a visitor visa is not allowed.

Living costs in Surry Hills are above the Australian average, with rent the biggest part of the budget. The right to work on a student visa helps cover part of the costs.
Sydney has a wide public transport network of trains, buses, light rail and ferries, all paid with an Opal card or a contactless bank card.
