Education agents
Students can apply directly to the institutions through online application forms available on the institution’s website or through their appointed education agents in India.
Australian education institutions have authorised agents to represent them in India. These agents can provide you with information about the education institutions that they represent and help students to apply for enrolment and facilitate the application for an Australian Student Visa. Make sure that the agent is an authorised representative of the institution that you wish to apply to and understand any fees that may be levied for using their services.
The Australian High Commission does not authorise any agents but supports an agents’ association AAERI (the Association of Australian Education Representatives in India). AAERI members have to abide by code of ethical practices which requires that they provide services to prospective students in a manner which reflects the established practices of the Australian education and training sector on the one hand and safeguards the genuine interest of prospective students on the other. A list of AAERI members can be found at its website at: www.aaeri.org
