What are the new policies for studying in Australia in 2020?

Australia has the highest education in the world and the largest number of overseas students in China. And has been adjusting the study abroad policy. Then let's take you to learn about the new policy of studying in Australia from all aspects.

I. Visa

1. If the materials are not fully prepared, the visa will be directly refused:

From now on, if the visa materials are not uniform, there is a risk of being refused. Students should check them again when handing them in.

2. Key points:

GTE is a statement made by international students when they enter this country. This statement is only for those international students who need to apply for a visa, and the Immigration Bureau will evaluate the purpose of studying abroad and the risk of detention according to this GTE. Now Australia has updated GTE, which clearly requires foreign students to have several points in GTE: First, the plot of past study or work needs to be written if there are gaps. ; Second, if the major chosen by international students in Australia is different from their previous major, you need to explain; Third, a study abroad plan, in which you should write how you plan to study in Australia.

3. Refuse to record:

In the past, when applying for a visa, students only needed to provide their visa history in Australia. But now Australia has expanded the scope of this record, and the applicant has to be examined not only which country he has been to, but also which countries his family has been to, regardless of whether he has plans to go to Australia.

Second, the cost

1, rising living expenses:

In February, the Immigration Bureau gave the latest minimum living standard for students' reference. The current situation is that a student's living expenses in Australia have risen from the initial 19830 Australian dollars to 20290 Australian dollars. In fact, it increased by 4500 RMB a year.

2. Tuition:

The exchange rate of Australian dollar has been falling from 20 18 to 4.7-4.8. Although the lower exchange rate is beneficial for international students to study abroad, Australia has also started to raise university tuition fees, which will be adjusted once a year. If you are smart enough, you should know that applying for a school earlier and applying for a visa earlier can save some expenses.

Three. Life and learning

1. Working hours:

After the introduction of these new policies, the weekly working hours for international students have changed from the previous 20 hours to the current 40 hours. Although the total length of time has not changed, it allows students to arrange when to work more flexibly than before.

2. cancel NATTI:

Students who used to study in Australia had to take a unified exam to get NATTI certification. Moreover, part of this exam is given by the school, so it is called internal test, which is easier to pass. But now this internal exam has been cancelled, leaving only an external exam that is more difficult to pass, which is another challenge for the students.
