Australia: The New Study Destination for Nigerian Students

When Nigerian students consider an international study destination, they often think of the UK, USA, or in more recent times Canada as their preferred choice. These countries offer world class, globally recognised University education, but there is a new destination of choice that is quickly gaining popularity. Australia!

Did you know?

1.       Of the world’s top 100 Universities, 7 are located in Australia.

2.       When you complete your degree you can stay and work for 2 years and apply for permanent residency. (Starting Salaries $50,000).

3.       Australia has warm summers and mild winters

4.       Is one of the most multicultural countries in the world, with students from every continent

5.       Australia is one of the world’s most technologically advanced countries - Wifi internet was invented in Australia!

 

If you are interested in studying in Australia, there are some key points you should know:

1.       Students with WAEC and/or NECO can apply for year 1 entry at University, no need for foundation

2.       Students with lower second class or 3rd class can study a “Postgraduate Qualifying Programme”, this 1 semester course gives you guaranteed entry to Master’s Degree

3.       Flexible start dates, 3 times per year (Jan, May & Sept)

4.       Tuition fees per year for Undergraduate study are approx. $21,000 AUD (£3 Million Naira), much cheaper than the UK (3.5 Million) or USA (5 Million).

  4. Wrong information!!!!! There are more to it than what was written. Everything regarding Australian visa application is self explanatory on their website. We should stop deceiving others with fake info.
