Study in Australia

 

The Australian Embassy does not have an on-site Education Officer who can assist you personally with information about studying in Australia.  However, you can have all your questions answered by logging on to the Australian Government's official website for international students - www.studyinaustralia.gov.au.

The site is interactive - simply create a personal profile and you can search for institutions, courses, costs, visa requirements etc tailored to your specifications.
If you wish to liaise further with a Government Education officer, you can email your queries to the Australian Education International regional office on enquiry@aei.edu.my or use the toll free line at call 800 186 0019.

Is Australian qualification of International standard?

Australian qualifications are internationally recognised when seeking employment or further study at leading international universities.
Most courses and training undertaken by international students in Australia on a student visa are covered by the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF). The AQF is a national system of learning pathways which is endorsed by the Australian Government and recognised throughout Australia and by other countries.

Do I need a visa to study in Australia?

Yes. To be granted a student visa you must complete a visa application form, lodge it with the evidence required, pay the application charges and satisfy the student visa requirements. For more information please log on to http://www.immi.gov.au

Can I work in Australia while I study?

Yes.  People granted student visas on or after 26 April 2008 will receive permission to work with their visa grant. They can work up to 20 hours a week while their course is in session and they can work unlimited hours during scheduled course breaks.
