Undergraduate and Other Courses (Bachelor’s, Master’s, PhD)

Australia education visa

Before applying for the education visa, the student must have been accepted at a registered Australian institution for an accredited course of study. Multiple courses may also be combined within the same visa. The minimum duration of an education visa for Australia is 12 weeks, and 50 weeks is the maximum. This visa does not have any age limit and it can be required a number of times. It is also a good way for people to live, study and work in Australia without having the need to apply for a Working Holiday Visa (which can only be availed by a person once in their lifetime).

Work Opportunities

With the education visa, a student is legally allowed to work part time for up to 20 hours per week while completing their course. For course pauses, like vacations, students may work full time as well.

To be able to work in Australia during your course, you must have a Tax File Number.
