01 Sep 2010

As per a recent report by CNBC-TV18, Australia fears a reversal of the tremendous growth of Australian since the time Australian student visa applications from India dipped by 40 percent this year. The dip resulted due to a series of attack on Indian students in Australia. Considering that Australian does not allure Indians any more, they don’t want to put their lives at risk by immigrating to Australia.

Australian immigration is trying to provide all sorts of reassurances to the Indian students to reconsider their decision and opt for Australia to study adding that the nation is safe to live and study.

Peter N Varghese, Australian High Commissioner mentioned that all efforts are being made to put away the fears of prospective Indian students. To invite more students, Australian immigration rules are being relaxed and special seminars are being conducted in various nations of the world. Also, a special Australian immigration policy is being initiated by the Australian government for Indian students.

A number of institutes in Australia are also coming up with offers of sponsorships and several incentives for Indian students. Indian students make a significant contribution towards the Australian higher education sector and the economy of the nation.

Australian High commission reiterated that efforts by Australia will bring desired results by winning Indian students confidence and a significant increase in the number of Australian student visa seekers from India.
