Rethinking student health, wellbeing and success in a high-cost world

International student success is no longer defined by academics alone. The latest 2025 State of Student Healthcare Report reveals a complex, interconnected reality where financial pressure, healthcare access, mental wellbeing, and social integration collectively shape outcomes.

Drawing on insights from students across 88 nationalities, this webinar explores the widening gap between expectations and lived experience - from the 85% facing higher-than-expected living costs to the 82% concerned about healthcare affordability, and the persistent challenges in navigating unfamiliar systems.

But the story is not just one of challenges. With 60% of students expressing optimism for the future, the data highlights resilience - and a clear opportunity for institutions, policymakers, and partners to act.

In this session, QS and Allianz Partners will unpack:

• The global relevance of Australia’s student experience trends
• How financial stress, health literacy, and social belonging intersect
• Why pre-arrival and ongoing support models need rethinking
• Practical strategies for institutions, insurers, and sector partners to enhance student outcomes at scale

Join us to move beyond isolated interventions and toward a more integrated, student-centric approach - one that supports not just student survival, but long-term success in international education.
