The StudyVillage revolution…
The support-and-success system international students deserve.
- StudyVillage gives the parents of international students peace of mind by assigning each student a dedicated, specially qualified Student Supporter who works with them throughout their studies. Through structured mentoring, regular wellbeing checkins, and professional progress reporting, parents gain clear insight into how their child is really doing—academically, socially, and emotionally.
- About us
Helping international
student succeed
StudyVillage exists to guide and safeguard your student throughout their international study journey—while keeping you meaningfully informed at every stage. Each student is paired with a dedicated, specially qualified Student Supporter, backed by a research-led framework and a secure, cloud-based platform that ensures consistency, visibility, and continuity of care.
Operating across Australia, the UK, Canada and other key destinations, StudyVillage supports students in major university cities through a network of 60+ trained mentors. Together, our people and platform deliver structured, scalable support that responds to real student needs and gives parents confidence that someone capable, independent, and on the ground is paying attention.
- How it works
Step-by-step support from day one
StudyVillage supports students through the Happy, Healthy & Wise process—a structured, research-informed framework that guides and supports international students from pre-departure through to graduation. From the outset, each student is paired with a dedicated, specially qualified Student Supporter who remains their consistent point of contact across the entire journey.
The process begins before the student departs, with an early one-on-one conversation to establish rapport, set expectations, and prepare the student emotionally and practically for the transition ahead.
A defining feature of the Happy, Healthy & Wise process is the active involvement of parents. At key points each semester, parents are invited—with the student’s consent—to meet together with their child and the Student Supporter to review progress, discuss wellbeing and study engagement, and understand how the student is being supported. These structured conversations close the information loop for families, providing reassurance while respecting the student’s independence.

Our mentoring system evolves into a proven method for student success.
StudyVillage begins by supporting students through transition and adjustment—but as students find their feet, the Happy, Healthy & Wise methodology shifts focus toward goalsetting, accountability, and long-term direction.
Through structured goal definition, regular progress tracking, and guided reflection, students learn how to translate effort into outcomes—academically, personally, and professionally. In the later stages of study, our framework becomes a methodical transition system, helping students plan, test, and refine their post-study pathway into work, further study, or return home.
Throughout the journey, students remain supported by a dedicated mentor, while parents—where appropriate—stay informed through clear, structured feedback. What begins as support becomes capability: a repeatable way of thinking, planning, and moving forward with confidence.

Personalised guidance for parents and students
throughout the study journey.
As a parent, it’s natural to feel anxious when your child studies overseas. At StudyVillage, we keep you in the loop every step of the way. Each semester you’ll receive a concise written report on your child’s transition, wellbeing and academic progress. We also schedule a video conference with you, your student, and their mentor to review this report and answer any questions. This way, even thousands of miles apart you’ll see exactly how your child is faring – far beyond the grade transcripts from universities.
Studying abroad is exciting but challenging. You want independence – but you don’t have to go it alone. StudyVillage gives you a dedicated mentor so you can focus on achieving your dreams. Our philosophy is simple: with the right support, every international student can thrive and reach their full potential. Your Student Supporter has been in your shoes – they’re a degree-qualified social worker who knows the local culture and university system.
