Frequently Asked Questions

• How many hours can international students work in Australia?

  As an international student, you are allowed to work in Australia part-time as soon as your Student Visa is granted and your course has commenced. When your course is in session, you can work up to 40 hours/fortnight. During the holidays you are allowed to work unrestricted hours. Most of our courses offer 16 weeks of holidays per year and some courses (especially in hospitality) also offer work placement as part of the studies which allows their students to work more.

  Update due to the Covid19 pandemic:

  Students can now work for more than 40 hours a fortnight if they are employed:

  • by an aged care Approved Provider or Commonwealth-funded aged care service provider with a RACS ID or a NAPS ID, before 8 September 2020
  • by a registered National Disability Insurance Scheme provider
  • enrolled in a health care related course and you are supporting the health effort against COVID-19, as directed by health officials
  • in the agriculture sector
  • in the tourism and hospitality sector

  For more information on work limitations for international students, please refer to the website of the Department of Home Affairs.
