system has a great variety international students. You can select your choice of
University, it is essential that you get an overview of the Australian education

GRADING SYSTEM
In Australia your academic performance is measured in terms of “grades” and “grade
point average” (GPA). The educational programs are first graded in percentages and
then converted into grades.
The grading system and GPA have variations that must be understood by non-Australian
students. Even if two students submit same GPA but are from different Universities,
then their target University may mark their scores differently due to the difference
in academic excellence of their previous schools.
ACADEMIC YEAR
In almost all the Australian Universities, the academic calendar begins in January/
July / September, and the programs are drafted accordingly in this sequence.
