About Us

Study abroad with someone who knows the way

IDP is a global leader in international education services. We help international students study in English speaking countries. Our success comes from connecting students with the right course in the right university or institution and the right country.

We partner with more than 800 leading universities, schools and colleges across Australia, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the United States, Canada and New Zealand. Last year, we helped students gain entry into more than 39,000 quality courses – so we are sure to find your best fit.

We have over 120 offices and 1,300 education counsellors based around the globe. Around the world, an IDP student enters a quality course every 14 minutes. In fact, more than 8 in 10 students recommend us to their family and friends.

Acquisition of the Hotcourses Group

In 2017, we acquired the Hotcourses Group, a leading course search database and student engagement company.
