Country guide
Sun, world-ranked universities, and generous post-study work rights.
The guide
Australia offers a rare mix of globally ranked universities, a high quality of life, and some of the most generous post-study work rights available. Its strong economy and demand for skilled graduates make it a compelling destination for career-focused students.
Australian student life is famously relaxed and outdoors-oriented, from beach cities like Sydney and the Gold Coast to cultural Melbourne. Strong part-time work rights help students offset living costs while they study.
Most students apply for the Student visa (subclass 500), which requires enrolment in a registered course and evidence of funds. The Temporary Graduate visa (subclass 485) then supports post-study work.
