Universal English College(UEC) was established in 1988, making it the longest established private ELICOS college in Australia! That's nearly 35 years of helping students from around the globe achieve their English, study, travel and career dreams,

in 2019, UEC merged wuth a quality-focused business college, Amridge institute. Today, Ambridge is nown as UEC Business and offers a range of business qualifications in leadership and management disciplines. Together, we are known as Universal or UEC for those in a hurry.

Every year, students from more than 50 countries choose to study at UEC. they choose UEC because they get direct entry to more than 30 Australian universities and colleges and because of the  further study success UEC graduates achieve. Stidents tell us that, as well as the great teachinng and courses, what they love most about UEC the sense of community. A community of learners striving to achieve their goals. A community of teachers and staff who love what we do and we have fun doing it. Day or night, the campus is always full of energy and fun.
