IDP Hotcourses is an online higher education information platform, focused on international students. Part of IDP Education, it provides course details from universities around the world, and advice on studying abroad.
History
IDP Hotcourses has its roots in the Hotcourses Group, founded by Mike Elms and Jeremy Hunt in 1990.[1] Under its Hotcourses brand, the company provided information about higher education and recreational courses, with a website launching in 2000.[2]
Subsequently, Hotcourses expanded into international education. Its flagship study abroad research website, Hotcourses Abroad, launched in 2008.[3] This was followed by several other sites, each serving audiences in different parts of the world.
In 2017, the Hotcourses Group was sold to IDP Education.[4][5] The company changed its name to IDP Connect in 2019,[6] before coming under the IDP Education brand in 2024.[7] At the same time, the Hotcourses websites were renamed IDP Hotcourses.

Students can contact institutions through the platform for more details, with a view to applying for a course.
In addition, IDP Hotcourses features details of scholarships offered by institutions, and articles with advice and information on various aspects of studying abroad.
