Arrival Reception and Accommodation
Arrival Reception Service
If you are relocating to Perth to study at ECU, you can register for our Arrival Reception Service. We will arrange a representative of ECU to meet you at the airport and take you to your chosen accommodation. The arrival reception service is provided free of charge to ECU students. If your partner or family members are accompanying you to Perth, they can also be collected, however this will incur a cost of $30-$50 for each additional person (costs will be clarified at the time of booking).
For those requesting this service, we can also assist you in arranging temporary accommodation at a budget hostel (Perth YHA) on your behalf; however any accommodation costs must be paid by you direct to the hostel upon check-in.
Register here for the Arrival Reception Service.
Airport pick-up will be available the following week, commencing Monday 18 January, until 22 March 2010.
