Everything you need to know about studying in Australia

Do I need GRE/GMAT or any other requirements for Australia?

GRE or GMAT isn’t usually required for admission in Australia. However, English proficiency tests like IELTS, TOEFL, or PTE are mandatory for both admission and student visa applications for Indian students.

How much can I work and earn in Australia for part-time?

International students can work up to 48 hours per fortnight during semesters. The average part-time pay is around AUD 23/hour (~INR 1,280). Higher wages are possible in hospitality, retail, and admin jobs.

Are there any specific visa requirements for Australia?

Yes, you need a Subclass 500 student visa. This requires a CoE, proof of funds (~INR 13.8 Lac/year), English proficiency, health insurance (OSHC), and a Genuine Student (GS) statement showing your intent to study.

What is the Genuine Student (GS) requirement in Australia?

The GS requirement ensures you're coming to Australia mainly to study. You must show course relevance, academic background, financial capacity, and intent to comply with visa rules. Vague or inconsistent plans can lead to rejection.

Is health insurance mandatory for visa in Australia?

Yes, Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) is compulsory for all student visa holders. It must be arranged before arriving in Australia and cover the full visa duration. Without the OSHC, your visa application may get refused.
