FAQ

Studying in Australia: your questions

Do British citizens need a visa to study in Australia?

Yes. To study a full-time course you need a Student visa (subclass 500). You apply online from outside Australia after your school issues your Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE).

Do I need IELTS to study in Australia with a UK passport?

For the visa, UK and Irish passport holders don't need to show an English test. Your school may still ask for one for some vocational or university courses.

Can I work while I study in Australia?

Yes. Student visa holders can work up to 48 hours per fortnight while their course is in session, and without that limit during scheduled course breaks.

How much money do I need?

The Australian government uses AUD 29,710 a year for living costs, on top of your course fees and travel. Depending on your passport and school, you may not need to show bank statements when you apply.

Can my partner come with me?

From 2 October 2026, family members can only be included in a student visa in limited cases. Tell us your situation and we will check what applies to you.

When can I start?

English courses start almost every week. Vocational courses have several intakes a year, and universities usually start in February and July.
