Why Study in Australia?

1. Australia ranks as the 3rd most popular destination for international students globally.

As a country with a population of just 24.5 million, we take pride in our leadership in education. While the USA remains the top study destination and the UK closely follows, Australia is rapidly gaining ground (Centre for Higher Education).

2. In 2020, Australia hosted nearly 700,000 international students.

Although this number decreased in 2020-2021 due to border closures, we anticipate a return to and surpassing of these figures once the pandemic is under control and borders reopen.

3. Australia boasts six universities among the world’s top 100.

Despite being relatively young compared to institutions like Oxford or Harvard, Australian universities such as The University of Melbourne, Australian National University, University of Sydney, University of Queensland, University of New South Wales, and Monash University ranked in the top 100 of the Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2020.

4. Australia features seven of the world’s best student cities.

Known for their quality of life and favorable climate, almost all major Australian cities—Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Canberra, Adelaide, Perth, and the Gold Coast—rank among the top 100 best student cities according to the QS Best Student Cities 2019.
