Australia is currently experiencing a downturn in applications. A number of commentators in the media have suggested that one of the main reasons behind the current downturn in interest in studying in Australia is differences between Australia's student visa program and visa programs of Australia's main English speaking competitors, in particular differences around visa costs, processing times and financial requirements. As part of the Department's input to the Knight review of Australia's student visa program in 2011, Australian Education International conducted a survey of more than 1,800 respondents encompassing prospective students, in some cases their parents and a number of alumni who had previously studied in Australia. More than 500 major education agents involved in recruiting students for Australian and other countries also responded to the same survey questions. The survey sought to examine perceptions of studying in Australia, including aspects of education quality, cost of studying and living and the student visa application process. Respondents were asked to compare their perceptions of Australia with its major competitor countries, including the United States of America (US) and the United Kingdom (UK). The survey was conducted in collaboration with AEI education counsellors at post in China, India, Indonesia, Korea, Thailand and Vietnam with the survey made available in Chinese, English, Indonesian, Korean and Vietnamese languages as appropriate. The main findings of the survey were that quality of education, tuition and living costs were the most important factors influencing where potential students choose to study. For most groups of students and agents across the six countries, the cost of a student visa was among the least important factors influencing decision making. A majority of students in most countries thought that Australia's student visa costs, tuition costs, living expenses and demonstrated minimum level of funds needed to apply for a visa were the same or lower than comparable costs in Canada, New Zealand, the UK or the US. Education agents were more likely to perceive costs in Australia as being greater than relevant costs in competitor countries. Students ranked Australia as taking the shortest time to process student visas, and ranked the UK and the US as taking the longest. Students also ranked Australia as having the fastest application and processing times (looking at the time from applying to an education institution through to receiving a final response from the relevant immigration office), and ranked the UK and the US as having the slowest application and processing times. For education agents, the results varied by country, with some groups of agents ranking Australia as the fastest, while others ranked Australia as slowest (in terms of time taken to process a student visa) or second slowest (in terms of total time taken). The total time taken to apply for an enrolment and receive a visa to study in Australia was seen as a positive for more than half of Chinese and Indonesian education agents, and more than half of Chinese, Indian and Vietnamese students thought this made prospective students more likely to choose to study in Australia. Less than half of students or agents from any country thought that the total time taken to apply for an enrolment and receive a visa to study in Australia made students less likely to choose Australia as an education destination. Australia's visa process was seen as most likely to positively influence student choice, with more than half of education agents in China, India and Indonesia and more than half of students in China, India, Thailand and Vietnam thinking that Australia's clarity and transparency made students more likely to choose Australia. The results of the survey suggest that the cost of Australia's student visa may not have a major impact on students' choice of study destination. The survey also shows that when the total length of time taken from starting to apply to an education institution through to having a visa application approved is taken into account, Australia is considered by the sample surveyed to have one of the fastest systems in place. The three most important factors in deciding where to study are the quality of education, the cost of tuition and the cost of living. Australia is perceived to be a provider of quality education, but the current high value of the Australian dollar impacts on both the cost of tuition and the cost of living in Australia relative to competitor countries.

Understanding Australia is an invaluable daily guide for the large and ever increasing number of students who must survive the foreign study experience in Australia. It looks at all things an international student needs to know to succeed both academically and socially on campus. It includes advice about Australia's social, cultural and family life, the academic environment and what is expected, and the culture of Australian educational institutions. Practical advice is given about using public transport, finding accommodation, paying bills, using services and many other things to assist with daily life. This 2004 book speaks directly to foreign students as they struggle with the anxieties, fear, confusion and sheer culture shock of adapting to study in a strange land. Rather than just highlighting potential problems, this book provides strategies for survival.
