About Australian Courses

A plain, fast index of every course registered for international students in Australia.

Where the data comes from

All listings are drawn from the Commonwealth Register of Institutions and Courses for Overseas Students (CRICOS), published as open data by the Australian Government Department of Education on data.gov.au under a Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 Australia licence. The register is refreshed monthly; this site is rebuilt from each new export.

What the fees mean

Tuition is the amount the provider has registered for the whole course, not per year. The per-year figure on this site is a simple division by course length to help you compare a 26-week certificate against a three-year degree. Non-tuition fees cover things like materials and enrolment. Providers can change fees at any time — always confirm with them before you commit.

What this site does not do

It doesn't take applications, recommend agents or rank providers. It shows what is registered and lets you sort by cost, length and level. The rest is between you and the provider.

Who runs it

Australian Courses is an independent project published by Syncorp Consulting, Sydney. It is not affiliated with the Department of Education or any provider listed.
