New Cap on Australian Student Visas: What It Means for Indian Students in 2025

Australia has announced a cap of 270,000 on international student enrolments for 2025, aiming to manage record migration levels affecting housing and infrastructure. This decision could further reduce the number of Indian students, who have already been enrolling in fewer numbers due to rising costs, housing challenges, and increased competition from other countries. The cap could significantly impact India’s student migration trends, making it a critical issue ahead of Australia’s upcoming elections.
