I'm New:
International Students
Welcome!
Hey there! We’re so excited you’ve come to study in Australia.
University is a great time to meet new people and ask deep questions. ‘Why am I here?’ ‘Why is there suffering in the world?’ You don’t have to ask these questions alone.
Whether you are Hindu, Sikh, Muslim, Buddhist, Catholic, Orthodox, Christian, EOC will give you a place to connect with others and explore the meaning of life together.
Whatever your country, culture, religion or language, all are welcome, and we’d love to meet you.
Get Connected
Heading to uni?
New doors open when you start uni – new experiences, new challenges, new friends, and even a new country! Whether you’re a committed Christian or just curious, Evangelicals on Campus is a community where you will be known, supported, and invited to belong. You don’t have to do uni, or faith, alone.
What are Christian uni groups like?
Wondering what to expect if you visit Evangelicals on Campus? Weekly Bible studies, mid-semester camps, and plenty of time to hang out together.
Some students choose just to attend occasionally. Others join several events per week, and some serve in leadership positions. Whatever your capacity, you’re welcome to come along.
Here are
some Qs we get
asked a lot.
You’re very welcome to come – regardless of your experience of church (or if you have no experience of church!). EOC is a place to make friends and discover more about Jesus.
AFES stands for the Australian Fellowship of Evangelical Students. We’re a movement of student groups from across the country, associated with IFES (the International Fellowship of Evangelical Students).
That’s okay! We understand the pressures on uni students – exams, assignments, work, and more – but making time to invest in your faith is also important. Most groups run several events a week, on different days and times – some in the day, some in the evening.
There are also opportunities to connect outside of semesters, including NTE (our National Training Event), and local mid-year camps and conferences.
Totally valid question. There’s an increased awareness of questionable sects operating on university campuses. At EOC, we’re never okay with manipulating or coercing people. We strive for transparency: we openly name our beliefs, affiliations and leaders, and are affiliated with the Student Union.
