The number of students studying in Australia between Jan-March 2022 is self-explanatory of the popularity of the Australian education system among Nepalese students.

Australia is known for its excellence in educational institutions. Australian universities and colleges are practical and career-oriented.
Australia offers a wide variety of programs for students from all over the world, with more than 1,200 educational institutions and over 22,000 courses available. However, there is no formal ranking of universities, so you can’t compare them.
No matter what a student is studying or how long they are studying for, Australia’s laws promote quality education and protection for international students.
Universities and colleges in Australia offer facilities for teaching, training, and research to be on par with the rest of the world. As a result, they prepare graduates with the skills businesses require to help them compete in the global workplace.
Universities in Australia require students to have a CRICOS code given by the Australian government as proof of the student’s qualification and ensure the quality of education.
There are three-tiered levels of education in Australia, where the university is the highest level of education in Australia.
University students can attend on-campus bachelor’s degrees or postgraduate courses (including certificate, postgraduate diploma, master and doctoral programs).
But Australia is also home to vocational education and training courses that offer everyone plenty of choices and opportunities.
Vocational training courses are available at government-funded institutions, including TAFE (Technical and Further Education) and private institutions. VET courses focus on practical skills and industry training.
For admissions into Australian education institutions there are two main requirements to fulfil. The first is Academic requirement, as well as English language requirement.
Admissions requirements vary from program to program and university to university in Australia.
If a university or college offers a particular course, it is usually up to the university or college to decide which specific qualifications they require for an applicant to be eligible to enrol in that course.
