The concept

Bring your degree. We'll provide the campus.

You might be studying Business in Europe, Computer Science in Australia or Psychology in the UK — online, on campus, or somewhere in between. VOYO turns a semester in Phuket into part of your education instead of a break from it.

If your programme is already online or remote-friendly, simply continue it from here. If you're at a campus university and want a genuine semester abroad, take one of our partner courses — University of London modules, Yenza courses and other accredited options that can be credited back at your own university. We give you the syllabus and accreditation documents your exchange office needs before you travel.

Semester abroad, with credits

Courses you can have credited at your own university

Not every student arrives with an online degree in progress. Through our academic partners you can take accredited modules during your semester in Phuket and transfer the credits home.

What's included

Everything except the studying

One package price covers your room, the co-study space, your Thai Education Visa and your choice of 60 Thai or Mandarin language lessons or 36 Muay Thai lessons. Flights, meals and your online degree or partner-course tuition are separate — and that tuition is often covered by your home university, an exchange budget or a grant.

  • Dorm or private room & housekeeping
  • 24/7 coworking & study space
  • Credit-transferable partner courses
  • 60 language lessons or 36 Muay Thai lessons
  • Thai Education Visa, arranged for you
  • Gym, yoga & wellness
  • Weekly community programme

Legal, long-stay, sorted

Stay legally for a full semester on a Thai Education Visa

Every VOYO student chooses one included in-person course — 60 Thai or Mandarin language lessons, or 36 Muay Thai lessons — alongside their online degree. Every option costs the same and unlocks a long-stay Education Visa, with paperwork handled from day one.

Questions

The things students and parents ask first

Still unsure? Our full FAQ covers visas, insurance, safety, payments and what happens if your exam schedule changes.

Do I need to already be enrolled at a university?+

Not necessarily. Most students bring their own online or remote-friendly programme, but if you're at a campus university taking a semester abroad — or not enrolled yet — we can place you on an accredited partner course such as University of London or Yenza that can be credited at your home university.

How long can I stay?+

Most students stay for a full semester, but stays run from one month up to a year. Every student studies on a Thai Education Visa, which we help to arrange.

Is it safe, and is it academically serious?+

Rawai is a quiet, family-friendly part of Phuket. The programme is structured around study hours, a dedicated workspace and check-ins — travel happens around your degree, not instead of it.
