FAQs for Bhutanese students

How much does it cost for a Bhutanese student to study in Australia?▾

Tuition fees vary by course and provider. The cheapest CRICOS-registered courses start from around $100 per year, while bachelor and masters degrees generally cost more. Living costs (around AUD 24,000–30,000 per year) and the student visa financial requirement are additional. Use the table above to compare actual course fees.

What is the cheapest course in Australia for Bhutanese students?▾

The most affordable options are typically short vocational (VET) courses and certificates, starting from around $100. For a recognised qualification, diplomas and undergraduate certificates are usually the cheapest pathways.

Can Bhutanese students get permanent residency after studying in Australia?▾

Studying in Australia can be part of a permanent residency pathway, but eligibility depends on your occupation, skills assessment, state nomination and visa stream — not the course cost alone. Courses in regional areas may offer extra post-study work visa benefits. Always check the Department of Home Affairs and consider a registered migration agent.
