The Ultimate Guide to Study in Australia for Indian Students.
We get it—deciding to study abroad is a massive life move, and it comes with a mountain of questions. Is Australia right for me? How do I handle the visa? What about my career after graduation? At Fidelite Group, we’ve simplified the journey for hundreds of students, and we’re here to do the same for you.
Australia isn’t just a destination; it’s an experience. Imagine balancing world-class lectures with a lifestyle that’s second to none. Whether you’re aiming for a high-tech engineering degree, a creative arts career, or a cutting-edge business program, Australia offers a "real-world" approach to learning. Here, you don’t just study theory; you build a career through internships, networking, and hands-on research.
Why Study in Australia?
Globally Ranked Universities: Australia punches way above its weight in education. Iconic institutions like the University of Melbourne, UNSW Sydney, and Monash University consistently rank in the QS World University Rankings 2025. When you graduate from here, your degree carries weight in every corner of the globe.
- Post-Study Work Rights: One of the biggest wins for international students is the post-study work visa. Depending on your degree and location, you can stay and work in Australia for up to 6 years after graduation, giving you the perfect platform to launch a global career.
- Dedicated Support Systems: You’re never alone. Australian universities, supported by the Fidelite Group’s expert guidance, offer everything from orientation and academic workshops to legal advice and career coaching to help you settle in seamlessly.
- The World’s Best Student Cities: According to the QS Best Student Cities 2025, locations like Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane are in the top 30 globally. They aren’t just beautiful; they are hubs of diversity, safety, and employer activity.
A “Work-Life” Balance That Actually Works: Australia is famous for its high standard of living. From the vibrant city life to the iconic beaches, you’ll find a supportive environment that values your mental well-being as much as your grades.
- Generative Scholarship Programs & Financial Support: Australia is incredibly invested in attracting global talent. Through the Australia Awards and various university-specific merit scholarships, the government and institutions provide millions of dollars in financial aid every year. Additionally, international students have flexible part-time work rights, allowing you to gain local work experience and help manage your living expenses while you study.

Cost of Studying in Australia
Planning your finances is just as important as choosing the right course. We know that "how much will it cost?" is usually the first question on every student’s mind.
While Australia offers a premium education experience, the costs can vary significantly based on the city you choose and the level of degree you pursue. At Fidelite Group, we specialize in helping you find high-quality, affordable universities and navigating the latest financial requirements for your student visa.
Navigating the Australian Student Visa
Securing your student visa is the final, most crucial bridge between you and your dream of studying in Australia. While the process is streamlined, the Australian Government has introduced stricter “Genuine Student” assessments in 2026 to ensure only high-quality, committed students enter the country.
At Fidelite Group, we take the guesswork out of your application. Whether you are applying for a Bachelor’s, Master’s, or a Vocational (VET) course, we ensure your paperwork is 100% compliant with the latest Department of Home Affairs regulations.
Key Visa Requirements for 2026
To be eligible for the Subclass 500 visa, you must meet several core criteria. Our team will guide you through each of these:
- Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE): You must first be accepted into a full-time course registered with CRICOS. This certificate is the "golden ticket" for your visa application.
The Genuine Student (GS) Requirement: Replacing the old GTE system, the GS requirement involves answering specific questions about your choice of course, your ties to your home country, and how this degree will advance your career. We help you draft authentic, evidence-based responses.
- Mandatory Health and Character Clearances: To secure your visa, you must meet Australia's strict health and character requirements. This involves undergoing a medical check-up with an approved physician and providing police clearance certificates to prove you have a clean legal record.
Updated English Proficiency: For 2026, the standard English benchmark has increased. Most students now require an IELTS score of 6.0 (or equivalent in PTE/TOEFL) for direct entry into a degree, though this can vary by course.
Financial Capacity: You must demonstrate that you have enough funds to cover your tuition and living expenses. For 2026, the minimum living cost requirement is approximately AUD 29,710 per year for a single student.
Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC): Australia requires you to have health insurance for the entire duration of your stay. We assist you in selecting the best OSHC provider to ensure you are covered from day one.
Scholarships to Study in Australia
Studying in Australia is more affordable than you think. In 2026, the Australian Government and top-tier universities are offering millions in financial aid to help international students cover tuition and living expenses. At Fidelite Group, we specialize in matching your academic profile with the right funding opportunities.
Key Opportunities for You:
Government Grants: Prestigious awards like the Australia Awards can cover 100% of your costs.
Regional Scholarships: Get up to $15,000/year via the Destination Australia program.
University Bursaries: Many institutions offer 20%–50% tuition fee waivers based on your grades.
Research Stipends: Dedicated funding for PhD and Master’s by Research students.
Don’t leave money on the table. Our team ensures your application and Statement of Purpose (SOP) are perfected to give you the best chance of securing a scholarship.
Intakes in Australia
The February Intake (Semester 1) is Australia’s primary academic window, offering the most comprehensive selection of courses and the largest pool of scholarship funds. For 2026, applications generally open in August 2025 and close by November 2025, making it the ideal choice for students who want the full “university experience” and alignment with global graduate hiring cycles. At Fidelite Group, we recommend this intake if you are aiming for competitive fields like Medicine, Engineering, or Research at top-tier Group of Eight (Go8) universities.
The July Intake (Semester 2) serves as a popular mid-year alternative for students who need extra time to finalize their English proficiency tests (IELTS/PTE) or miss the February deadline. While the course variety is slightly more focused compared to Semester 1, it remains a powerhouse for Business, IT, and Science programs with applications typically due between February and May 2026. This intake is perfect for a smoother transition, often featuring smaller class sizes and a less competitive application environment, providing a strategic window for faster Genuine Student (GS) requirement processing.
The November Intake (Trimester 3) is a strategic, fast-track option offered by select universities and vocational institutions for specific programs. Application deadlines usually fall between July and September 2026, making it an excellent “backup” or acceleration route for pathway and postgraduate students looking to complete their degrees sooner. Regardless of the season you choose, Fidelite Group ensures your paperwork and visa lodgment are timed perfectly to avoid delays and secure your spot in your dream Australian classroom, whether in Sydney, Melbourne, or Perth.
