Australia has the third largest number of international students in the English-speaking world, but in many countries Australia is a student’s first choice for international study. This is because the Australian Education System has a standardized system of qualifications which means that all institutions offering nationally recognized qualifications must be registered with the Australian Government and meet very strict registration conditions.
Together with the great lifestyle opportunities available in Australia, there is little wonder that over 200,000 international students choose to study in Australia.
