Australia
:
Australia attracts the
third largest number of international students in the
English-speaking world after the U.S. and U.K. Its
institutions offer world-class courses and
qualifications, and the costs of living and studying are
considerably lower than those of many other
English-speaking countries. Australia is a popular
choice for study because of its friendly, safe and
relaxed environment, diverse landscapes, unique flora
and fauna and good weather. Its people are culturally
and racially diverse: one in four Australians was
either born in |
 |
|
a non-English speaking
country or has one parent born overseas, and at least
15% of Australians speak a second language at home.
Aboriginal culture and history make a valuable
contribution to Australia’s societal mix. |
|
|
|
Australians are famous for being
friendly, relaxed and tolerant, and enjoy sports and
casual socializing with barbecues and informal
get-togethers. |
