This Act has been repealed and is no longer in force. It is retained for historical reference.
This instrument names Australian education providers and their partner institutions (identified by CRICOS codes) approved to enrol international students for certain student visa streams. It applies to visa subclasses 572, 573, 574 and 575 for applications made on or after 21 November 2015.
It matters because international students must hold an offer from a listed provider (or its partners) to be eligible for these visas; partner arrangements allow preparatory courses (e.g. English) before a main program.
