Study in Australia: Group of Eight, costs, and 485 visa
Australia's top universities, tuition, GS requirements, and post-study work rights.
Earthlink Editorial • 10 June 2026 • 10 min read
The Group of Eight (Melbourne, ANU, Sydney, UNSW, Queensland, Monash, UWA, Adelaide) dominate global rankings. Tuition ranges from AUD 30,000 to AUD 55,000 per year.
The Genuine Student (GS) test replaced GTE in 2024. Answer clearly why this course, why Australia, and what you plan next — vague answers get refused.
Subclass 485 (Temporary Graduate) gives 2–4 years of work rights depending on qualification and location. Regional study earns extra time.
