Let us take a look at a few more reasons why Australia can be a great choice as your study destination.

Quality Education: Australia has the distinction of being the third largest provider of education to international students after the United States and the United Kingdom. The Group of Eight (Go8) comprises Australia's leading research- intensive universities – the University of Melbourne, the Australian National University, the University of Sydney, the University of Queensland, the University of Western Australia, the University of Adelaide, Monash University, and UNSW Sydney. They offer a multitude of study options for students going abroad for higher studies at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels.

CRICOS Registered Universities: All universities in Australia offering international programs are CRICOS registered. CRICOS stands for Commonwealth Register of Institutions and Courses. This ensures the delivery of high-quality education and training experience throughout the duration of the course.

Acceptance of 3-year Bachelor’s degree: While countries like USA, Germany, and Canada prefer a 4-year Bachelor’s degree for a majority of its programs, Australian universities accept students with a 3-year Bachelor’s degree for their Master’s programs.

Generous scholarships: Apart from scholarships awarded by universities, the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade have instituted the Australia Awards Scholarships. These are offered for the minimum period necessary for the individual to complete the academic program specified by the Australian higher education institution, including any preparatory training.

Part-time work: International students going overseas for higher studies can work for up to 40 hours every two weeks (outside of holiday breaks).

Post-study work visa: International students get a stay-back option after their studies for a period of 3-5 years. Students in Regional areas get an additional year of post-study work visa.Combine leisure with learning and unravel the wonders of Australia.
