Australia is taking steps to stop people from cheating the student visa system. They are doing this by:
- Banning private colleges from paying commissions to education agents to bring students over from other colleges. This will stop agents from trying to move students from good universities to cheaper colleges.
- Tracking the attendance of international students to make sure they are actually studying. This will stop people from using student visas to work in Australia.
The Australian government is doing this because they want to protect the integrity of their international education sector. This sector is worth billions of dollars to the Australian economy and helps to attract students from all over the world.
