Studying in Australia as an international student

Australia is one of the world's largest destinations for international students, and the path runs through a few fixed gates: a CRICOS-registered course, an electronic Confirmation of Enrolment, health cover, proof of funds, and the Genuine Student requirement that replaced the old GTE test in 2024. The money matters too — tuition plus a living-cost benchmark of around AUD 29,710 a year — and so does what happens after you graduate, where the 485 post-study work visa can keep you in Australia to build experience. This hub indexes Migratio's guides on choosing a course and university, the student visa, the financial requirements, education agents (and how they're paid), scholarships, the real cost, and post-study work. Rules and figures change, so each guide points to the official source. General information only, not migration or financial advice.
