Study in Australia: Requirements Guide & FAQs

What you need to study in Australia: entry requirements, English, finances, a genuine study plan, health cover and the student visa. A clear guide with FAQs.

Published1 Jul 2027

To study in Australia as an international student you generally need five things: a place in a course with a registered provider (which gives you a Confirmation of Enrolment), enough English for your course, evidence you can cover your tuition and living costs, Overseas Student Health Cover for your whole stay, and a genuine plan to study that satisfies the Genuine Student requirement for the student visa. On top of that you must meet health and character requirements. The exact English score, funds and entry marks vary by course and provider, but that five-part structure is the same for almost everyone. Get a real offer, prove your English and money, arrange your health cover, and show your study plan makes sense.
