Australian education system is a dynamic and fast growing service market. Australia was ranked as the third largest educational destination to international students after the United States (US) and the United Kingdom (UK), in 2016. Currently around five million undergraduate students study outside their own country. The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) estimates this number will increase to eight million by 2025. The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) estimates international education to be worth a record $34.8 billion by the end of 2022.

In the QS University ranking, there are 36 Australian Universities in the top 1000 universities and out of these seven universities are ranked among the top 100 world universities. The Educational Services for Overseas Students (ESOS) Act protect rights of international students studying in Australia. Australian government invests around 300 million Australian Dollars in international student scholarships. In the year 2019, around 300 Australian awards were granted to international students from over 55 countries.
