Overview
Australia offers globally respected qualifications at undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral level, set to the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF). Almost half of the population was born overseas or has a parent who was, so international students find a welcoming, multicultural community.
Why study in Australia
- Qualifications that follow one national standard, the AQF
- Strong fields include business, engineering, health and medicine, IT, law and hospitality
- Tuition and living costs are often lower than in the UK and USA
- Post-study work options for eligible graduates
Intakes
Main intakes are February and July; some institutions admit at other times of year.
Working while you study
Student visa holders can usually work a limited number of hours per fortnight during study and full time in scheduled breaks. The limit is set by the Department of Home Affairs and changes from time to time, so we confirm the current rule at counselling.
After your studies
Eligible graduates can apply for a post-study work visa; its length depends on the qualification and where you studied.
Good to plan for
- Most students must hold Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) for the whole visa.
- Students under 18 need an approved guardianship arrangement, which we can help set up.
- A Genuine Temporary Entrant (GTE) statement is assessed, so we prepare you for it.

Australia: common questions
Can I work while studying in Australia?
Students can usually work a limited number of hours per fortnight during term and full time in scheduled breaks, unless their visa says otherwise. We confirm the current limit when you apply.
What is OSHC?
Overseas Student Health Cover is health insurance that most student visa holders in Australia must buy for the length of their visa.
Visa and study rules change often. We confirm the current requirements for your case at counselling; always check the official embassy or immigration website too.
