129 foreign Students, mostly Indians Displaced from Australian College
Australia: Due to the prevailing Australian government’s rapid audit programme to identify and close “high risk” colleges at least 129 students have been displaced. Most of the students are from India. Closure of St George Institute of Professionals, which is fourth in last three months, has lead to such displacements.
The displaced students are expected to be offered a placement in suitable alternative course at no extra fees. The audit is checking everything, from college’s marketing and pre-enrollment materials to qualification of its teaching staff and its training and assessment materials.
Our view: Last few years have seen an upsurge in the number of Indian Students going to Australia for professional studies, closures of such kinds have put a question mark on the authenticity of such colleges.
Indian students — please be careful before applying and joining any such colleges in Australia.
