Australia is one of the world’s leading destinations for international education, offering globally recognised qualifications, career-focused learning, multicultural communities and a wide range of courses for international students.

Whether you are planning to study for a Bachelor’s degree, Master’s degree, diploma, vocational qualification or another eligible program, Bangladesh Student Consultancy (BSC) can help you identify suitable Australian institutions and guide you through the admission process.

Study In Australia

Why Study in Australia?

Australia combines high-quality education with practical learning and an international student environment. Students can choose from universities, vocational education and training institutions, English-language colleges and other registered education providers.

Globally Recognised Qualifications

Australian qualifications are recognised by employers, educational institutions and professional organisations around the world, giving graduates opportunities to build careers in Australia, Bangladesh and internationally.

Wide Range of Courses

International students can choose from thousands of programs covering areas such as:
  • Business and Management
  • Information Technology
  • Computer Science
  • Engineering
  • Accounting and Finance
  • Health and Nursing
  • Public Health
  • Data Science
  • Cyber Security
  • Hospitality and Tourism
  • Education
  • Construction and Project Management
  • Supply Chain and Logistics
  • Social Sciences
  • Design and Creative Industries

Course availability and admission requirements vary by institution.

Work While You Study

Eligible Student visa holders can generally work up to 48 hours per fortnight while their course is in session. Unlimited work hours may apply during scheduled course breaks, subject to the conditions attached to the individual visa. Research Master’s and doctoral students have different work-hour provisions.

This allows students to gain workplace experience, develop professional skills and build networks alongside their studies.

Scholarship Opportunities

Australian universities and education providers regularly offer scholarships to eligible international students. Scholarships may be based on academic merit, program, nationality or other criteria.

Our counsellors can help you explore available scholarship opportunities when selecting your course and institution.

Bring Eligible Family Members

The Student visa (subclass 500) allows eligible applicants to include family members such as a partner, child or partner’s child in an application, subject to Australian immigration requirements.

Eligibility, financial requirements and visa conditions should always be checked for each individual case.

Post-Study Opportunities

Eligible graduates may be able to apply for a Temporary Graduate visa (subclass 485) after completing an eligible Australian qualification.

For eligible degree-level graduates, the Post-Higher Education Work stream usually allows a temporary stay of between two and three years, depending on the qualification. Certain eligible graduates who studied and live in designated regional areas may qualify for an additional period under the Second Post-Higher Education Work stream.

Post-study visa eligibility is not automatic and depends on the immigration requirements that apply at the time of application.

  • Engineering
  • Accounting

Australia Study Intakes

The Australian academic year commonly begins in February or March, while many universities also offer a second major intake around July. Some institutions and programs may offer additional start dates.

Main Intake

February / March

Offers the widest selection of courses at many Australian institutions.

Mid-Year Intake

July

A popular alternative for students who are unable to start at the beginning of the academic year.

Other Intakes

Selected institutions may offer programs beginning at other times of the year.

Because application dates differ by university and course, students should begin preparing well before their preferred intake.

Australia Admission Requirements for Bangladeshi Students

Admission requirements depend on the university, qualification level and chosen program.

Applicants will commonly need to provide:

  • Academic certificates and transcripts
  • Valid passport
  • English-language test results where required
  • Statement of Purpose or supporting statement where required
  • CV or résumé for selected postgraduate programs
  • Work-experience documents where relevant
  • Recommendation letters for selected programs
  • Other course-specific documents

For Australian student visa applications, students may also need to satisfy English-language, financial, health, character and Genuine Student requirements.

BSC can assess your academic background before recommending suitable courses and institutions.

English Language Requirements

English requirements vary significantly between institutions and programs.

Australian institutions may require evidence through an accepted English-language test. The exact test type and minimum score depend on the institution, course and applicable visa requirements. Australian Government guidance confirms that students may need to provide results from an approved English test as part of the Student visa process.

Instead of choosing a course only by an advertised IELTS or PTE requirement, students should check the complete admission criteria for their selected institution.

Have a low English score or no current test result?

Speak with a BSC counsellor to explore what study pathways may currently be available for your profile.

Tuition Fees and Cost of Studying in Australia

There is no single tuition fee for international students in Australia.

Your total education cost depends on:

  • Your education provider
  • Level of study
  • Chosen course
  • Course duration
  • Study location
  • Additional course materials or equipment

Australian Government guidance also notes that actual living expenses can differ significantly between Australian cities and may be higher than the minimum amount used for visa financial requirements.

Before applying, BSC can help you compare suitable institutions based on your academic profile and available education budget.
