Australia / Admissions
Use the official Study Australia course search and read the provider’s entry requirements. Confirm the qualification, English evidence, application steps and offer conditions directly with the institution.
Australia / Programmes
Review course content, campus, duration and the provider’s international-student registration. A study offer and eligibility for later graduate immigration routes are separate questions.
Australia / Costs
Study Australia states a minimum AUD$29,710 financial-capacity figure. The application also requires evidence covering course fees, travel and other applicable costs. Real living expenses can exceed the visa minimum.
Australia / Scholarships
Study Australia lists scholarships and funding resources. Check nationality, study level, application conditions, coverage and the provider’s closing date before relying on an award.
Australia / Visa
APPLIES · Fee from 1 July 2026
From 1 July 2026, Student visa application fees start at AUD$2,500 unless exempt. Follow the Genuine Student assessment and the required confirmation-of-enrolment process. Overseas Student Health Cover is required for applicable international students.
Australia / Work & graduation
The usual Student visa work limit is 48 hours per fortnight while study is in session, with exceptions and different treatment of study breaks. Temporary Graduate visa eligibility depends on factors such as qualification and age; do not assume a fixed entitlement.
Australia / After graduation
Subclass 485 normally requires an applicant aged 35 or under, with exceptions, an eligible visa history and a recent qualifying CRICOS course. Select the correct stream and confirm nationality-specific exceptions and stay duration.
Australia / Arrival & housing
Confirm housing through a trusted provider, read the tenancy and cancellation terms, and check deposits before payment. Prepare insurance, enrolment, immigration arrival formalities, emergency contacts and a first-month budget with your institution’s international office.
