Australia to cap foreign student enrollments in migration crackdown

Australia said on Tuesday (August 27) it would limit the enrolment number of international students at 270,000 for 2025, as the government looks to rein in record migration that has contributed to a spike in home rental prices. "There's about 10% more international students in our universities today than before the pandemic and about 50% more in our private vocational and training providers," Education Minister Jason Clare told a news conference.
