Study in Australia

Australia is a popular destination for international students from every corner of the globe. It offers a high standard of education in a safe and friendly environment, and has recently moved ahead of the US and UK as the preferred study destination of students from Asia. There are more than 200,000 international students studying in Australia, with 69,000 students from China alone.

Australia offers international students high quality education at great value. Current exchange rates mean that both the cost of education and the cost of living are much lower than the other main English-speaking country destinations.

Australia is a big country and a unique travel destination. It is a land of contrasts and extremes, offering an enormous range of adventure and experience.

Australians are great travellers, with a well-developed interest in the people and culture of other countries. Our population of 25 million people is itself made up of immigrants and refugees from many different countries, different religious backgrounds and different cultures. This is but one reason why international students find Australia such a friendly and welcoming place to live, to study and to learn.
