Student Numbers at Australian Universities

How many students are there studying at Australian Universities? How many international students are there studying in Australian Universities? These are two of the commonly asked questions about the number of students in Australia.

It is important to note in this that there are many domestic and international students who are not studying in a university and instead are studying in one of the many colleges or TAFEs at various levels including vocational education, english, or other diploma or degree level studies.

The following table shows the student population at the Australian universities both in total and in proportional numbers.
