About IDP Education Makassar
IDP Education Makassar is one of the few international-calibre education consultancies serving Eastern Indonesia. Located in Makassar — the largest city in Eastern Indonesia and the capital of South Sulawesi — the office acts as the primary hub for students from Sulawesi, Maluku, and Papua who aspire to study abroad. As part of the global IDP network co-owned by 38 Australian universities, IDP Makassar provides authoritative guidance on Australian, UK, and Canadian universities, along with official IELTS testing — a critical credential for overseas study applications.
Our research
ConsultancyCheck's own assessment, from public records and the company's own materials. This is our judgement — not a summary of student reviews.
How IDP Education Makassar get paid
IDP Education Makassar does not charge students a placement fee. Like most education agents, it is paid a commission by the universities it places students into. That does not make its advice bad — but the agent is paid by the institution, not by you, so it has more financial reason to recommend a partner university than a non-partner one. Ask which universities it represents, and whether your shortlist is on that list.

The bottom line
IDP Education Makassar serves a genuinely underserved market — Eastern Indonesia's students previously had very limited access to quality overseas education advice. IDP's presence here is hugely valuable, and its combination of IELTS testing and global placement expertise makes it the top choice for the region.
