The full-fee degree system that was introduced in 1996 by the Howard Government, allowed students entry to an Australian university ignoring a lack of a few marks here and there. A less grade could not prevent them from taking the course that they prefered.
Such a system added considerably to university coffers in terms of revenue while making it easy on the student who wanted to pursue an education in Australia. The Australian labor party recently announced its support for this system for the government’s first two terms. It also voiced its permission to allow students to voluntarily organise social services like childcare and welfare services on university grounds.
This news comes on the heels of the results of the annual reader survey conducted by The Scientist which commended Australia as the fifth best country for academic research by scientists.
The survey also brought to light the immense number of students who come in from international shores to pursue education in australia. The number was collated to be 55.6 percent, with Indian students making up the largest chunk of this section.
