Study in Australia
Australia offers a diverse range of study options for international students, with more than 1,100 institutions and over 22,000 courses.
You can study at all levels of education from primary and secondary school, to vocational education and training (VET), from English language courses to higher education (including universities).

Regardless of what you are studying or how long you are studying for, Australia’s laws promote quality education and protection for international students.
The Australian education system is distinguished from many other countries by the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF).

The AQF has 10 levels and links school, vocational and university education qualifications into one national system. This allows to move easily from one level of study to the next, and from one institution to another, as long as you satisfy student visa requirements. It allows for choice and flexibility in career planning. All qualifications in the AQF help prepare you for both further study and your working life.

If you are studying an AQF qualification, you can be sure that your institution is Government-authorised and nationally accredited, and that your degree or other AQF qualification will be genuine.
