Australia has fallen from the top spot in university rankings, with international students facing high cost of living.

High cost of living and tuition fees in Australia has knocked the country off the top spot in university rankings it shared with Canada, as uncertainty around government migration policy contributed to the fall. A report from IDP Education has revealed a significant shift in the perceptions international students carry towards different countries, particularly the US, Australia, and Canada.

Education quality, employment prospects and value for money were the main driving factors for students determining where to study, IDP found. Visa and policy disruptions impacting students had contributed to the shake up, IDP Education managing director Tennealle O'Shannessy said.
