Australia Tightens Student Visa Requirements. Should Indians Worry? | Vantage with Palki Sharma
Australia has announced that it would raise the amount of savings international students require to obtain a visa and cautioned colleges about fraudulent recruitment practices amid record immigration. This decision will likely impact foreign students with many Indian students bearing the brunt of this latest move. Reports say colleges are now refusing to accept Indian students. Indians make up for the second-largest group of foreign students in the country so this recent visa crackdown has raised questions. Will it affect relations between New Delhi and Canberra? Palki Sharma tells you.

The average house price in Australia is now 10 times the average salary, this is because of mass immigration (ie international students coming to Australia and flooding the housing market, driving down wages and driving up real estate prices).

It’s a typical opportunistic relationship. Australia opened its doors to international students to bridge skill gaps within its economy. Several Indian students saw this as an opportunity to get permanent residency. Education is Australia has always been about securing permanent residency status for most international students. This does very little to the actual skill bridging but puts a lot of pressure on other aspects of the economy. Universities and their agents have also used the practice of luring students into Australia on the basis of PR pathways as opposed to career opportunities and future growth like what we typically see in the USA. This attempt by the govt is just to show the people of Australia that they are doing something. But in reality it will have no impact in the medium to long run.

[@Dawj743]

Not only Australia, but every Western country should limit access to opportunities for international students and work permit holders from countries with a massive influx. This is a wise decision. Just because India has the highest population doesn't mean that Western countries should allow all of them to enter and potentially dilute their cultural values. I believe Canada should take note of this. While Canada has capped the number of international students, they haven't limited the number of LMIA (Labour Market Impact Assessment) holders from India and the Philippines. It's time for them to open their eyes.

Didnt canada kicked u guys out also? Think u should get moodi to self invite to these countries and do some bear huggings and groppings to improve relationship even if its a fake gesture. U should follow too

And... ? It was increased in 2024 merely to catch up after lock downs, now it is returning to the norm.

[@Strait222]

The problem in Australian housing market is the ridiculously high interest rates, international students are hit extremely hard with course prices. Australian immigration is now a revenue raising business, you apply for a visa, they reject it and keep your money, don't even try to a visitor visa, instantly rejected, go visit a country that welcomes tourists, Australia is a no go zone for the entire world. Could say more about how bad Australia is but you get the point already. DON'T APPLY FOR ANY VISA, you just support Australia immigration with funds.

[@Truthfully2k]

UK had already started this from 2010 foreseeing the immigration impact. Other countries are just following the suit now.

[@mandarp9472]

UK welcomes thousands of immigrants from Africa and Middle east. So UK is facing problems now.

A lot of dodgy colleges are running in Australia with collaboration with those immigration agents. They exploit all possible loopholes in government policies to bring young students from subcontinent on this hope that all their problems will be resolved just by reaching Australia. Unfortunately, this is not case anymore in Australia due to high inflation, fewer jobs and extreme housing crises. These students generally take loans to arrive here and don’t want to leave immediately. This is the worst phase where they are exploited to work on low wages, and longer hours. Depression, anxiety, stress go up and up while they have no support from anyone. It’s neither Australian government or Indian govt fault. I don’t believe this visa policy change will impact bilateral relationships.

[@thoeer913]

I think it's okish. Indian students make the most immigrants in Australia. And most of these Indian students are Punjabi. So, they might be trying to diversify the population with other international students.

[@ishaanikhanna-xy3ok]

For those looking to study, in Australia. I would say do your own research. Your university choice is not only dependent on ranking but also on how well a subject is taught at that university. Take it from someone who is planning to study there in a few months. And after that you have some doubt you can connect with my team we will help you out

[@libatalklieb5793]

Another Indian taking advantage of Indian students?

[@sammohis]

If I may, it's better not to come to Australia now specially those who need to take a loan to study, as its not worth it.Living and renting is super expensive and Job options not so great.Not to discourage but a student is better off going to other countries in Europe that offer free education if they really want an International experience.Or work for 2 years and then come as students here.Right now not a good time.

Why does Indians want to travel to Australia and study? Cost so much Money. Have they ever heard of "Distance Learning"? It is possible now and you just need a computer and reliable internet. You can apply for Universities you like and study via distance. You can even study at American Universities too via distance. I have studied via distance before and you can study without attending lectures. Earn a reputable qualification and study at your own pace.

Australia also knows that people come there to get PR. Their universities are not that great that people will pay their life savings to just get degrees from their average universities compared to US or Europe or even Singapore ! Indians should also work on their self respect and work hard to make it big in India. there are plenty of opportunities for those that want to work hard in India too. but most would just criticise the government and never really explore the opportunities presented by favorable policies in India

[@MelaniaRose]

Disagree. Australia has the highest ranking universities in the world. It’s probably average students who can’t speak English properly who are wasting their time “studying”.

[@trozan2355]

@@MelaniaRosehigh grade universities are high grade universities any where in world. I studied in one of the most reputed universities in Australia and it was not so much better than NIT in india where i did my bachelors. The only reason 99% of Indian students are flying here is to just earn money doing odd jobs as they can earn in dollars. If someone is really here to study and boost there career its very good but on the contrary countries like Australia doesn’t even offer campus placements like India and the job market completely runs on references irrespective of the talent. So, ultimately the students are trapped in a vicious debt trap and careers are also ruined. With my experience I have realised that with same amount of hard work, we Indian students can land a good job and stay close to family in India

[@Prince077Aussie]

Australia has 4-5 universities in best top 50 universities in the world and around 10 in top 100. University of Melbourne at 14, University of Sydney at 19 and University of NSW at 19,Australia National University at 34, Monash at 42, UQ at 43 as per QS world university rankings 2024. Show me one Indian university in even top 100. First university in top 200 is IIT bombay at 149 and IIT delhi 197 . Rest of the universities from India are like 700, 1000-1200 in ranking. I don’t what best universities you are saying are better than universities in Australia.

What about the students already studying in Australia, and then now the Australian Government has proposed the age limit for 485 visa from 50 to 35. There should be a subclause or grandfather clause so tht people like me who were already successful in India as HR Manager, changed the career from HR to Accounting and did Masters in Accounting with a plan to stay in future for a better education future for my 2 kids will not be eligible for 485 visa. Being international students we have school kids fully for our kids and pay all the taxes....and then too the Aus Government is propsing the age limit for 485 visa. Even generally speaking human being get serious about their carrer after 30, after they have explored running and earning drom their passion. And also if the Aus Govt. Is changing the age dor TR , the PR age is still 50. They need to implement the propsed for new student application, not for the ones who are already here.
