What is a Student Visa?
The Student Visa (subclass 500) allows international students to live and study in Australia for the duration of their course. This visa grants you the opportunity to study full-time in a recognized institution, and in some cases, allows you to work part-time while completing your studies.
If you’re a parent or legal guardian of a student under 18, the Student Guardian Visa (subclass 590) permits you to stay in Australia to care for the student.
Why Study in Australia?
- Access to globally recognized qualifications and cutting-edge research opportunities.
- A multicultural environment that fosters global networking and career development.
- Opportunities to work part-time (up to 48 hours per fortnight) while studying.
- Post-study work opportunities for eligible graduates.
