Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from international students applying to Australian universities.

How many Australian universities should I apply to?▼
Most advisors recommend applying to 3–5 universities: 1–2 aspirational (Go8), 2–3 realistic targets, and 1 safe option. This spread maximises your chance of receiving at least one strong offer while keeping application costs manageable.
What is the difference between UAC, VTAC, QTAC and SATAC?▼
These are state-based tertiary admissions centres. UAC covers NSW/ACT, VTAC covers Victoria, QTAC covers Queensland, and SATAC covers South Australia/Northern Territory. International students typically apply directly to universities rather than through these centres, which mainly handle domestic Year 12 applications.
How do I write a strong personal statement for Australian universities?▼
A strong statement should: clearly explain why you chose this specific course and university, highlight relevant academic achievements and any research or work experience, demonstrate your understanding of the field, and outline your long-term career goals. Aim for 500–800 words and tailor each statement to the specific program — admissions staff can spot generic statements.
How long does the Subclass 500 student visa take?▼
The median processing time for a Subclass 500 Student Visa is currently around 4–8 weeks, though it can take up to 12 weeks or more in peak periods (October–December). Apply as soon as you receive your CoE and pay for OSHC. Check the current processing times on the Home Affairs website before you lodge.
Can I work while studying on a student visa in Australia?▼
Yes. Under the Student Visa (Subclass 500), international students are generally allowed to work up to 48 hours per fortnight during term and unlimited hours during scheduled course breaks. Rules may change — always verify the current conditions on the Department of Home Affairs website.
