    ArabStudyAustralia.com

    (Higher Education industry)

    March 2009Present (9 months)

    Established March 2009, in Ballarat, Victoria, Australia, the Arab Study Australia website consists of Mamoun (from Jordan) and Penny (from Australia) who wish to help International students get acceptance into Australian Universities.

    We will apply for your Bachelors, Masters, or PHD Degrees on your behalf and get you accepted into any Major in Australian Universities.

    We can also arrange for you to study English in Australia.

    We specialize in Middle Eastern (Arabic-Speaking) countries because Arabic and English are our first languages, however, we can easily also offer the same service to anyone from any country if you can communicate in English or Arabic.
