Australian higher education institutions have no restrictions on the admission of older students, on the contrary, they will take work experience as a plus condition for admission. 465,438+0% of the students are between the ages of 25 and 64, especially after undergraduate courses, such as master's and doctoral programs. There are many elderly students, so it is nothing new to see them in college classes.

According to statistics, the most popular majors for Australian college students are business administration and education (the number of registered students accounts for 10% of the total number of registered students), and nursing, accounting and law rank second (the number of registered students accounts for 5% of the total number of registered students). From the perspective of gender, men prefer to take exams in business administration, banking and finance, while women will choose nursing and finance more. The education export industry started in Australia. Among overseas students, China students account for 19%, Britain 7%, India 6%, Malaysia 5% and New Zealand 4%.

According to the data of Australian Federal Ministry of Education, about one fifth of local students will give up their original majors, switch to other majors or drop out at the end of their first year of university. Experts point out that there are many reasons for students to drop out of school, among which inappropriate courses, inadaptability to college life and family economic conditions are the main reasons.
