How to apply

  1. Apply as a non-JUPAS applicant

    Students with international qualifications apply directly to each university through its own portal.

  2. Apply early

    Applications open in the autumn, and many universities review them in rounds. Early rounds have the best chances and scholarship consideration.

  3. Prepare for an interview

    Competitive programmes interview shortlisted applicants, often online.

  4. Get a student visa

    The university sponsors your visa application to the Immigration Department after you accept.

Cost

Non-local students pay fees set by each university, higher than local fees. Entrance scholarships for strong applicants are common.

Language

English for almost all degrees. Applicants from non-English systems need IELTS or TOEFL.

Good to know

University halls guarantee a place for non-local students for at least the first year at most institutions.
