Some of Australia's most prestigious universities have offered 2025 places to international students that are now uncertain under new caps to be imposed by the federal government.
No more than 145,000 international students will be able to start their studies in Australian universities in 2025, under the government's proposed reform of the sector.Some of Australia's most prestigious universities have already sent out offers of enrolment to international students for next year, despite uncertainty over the number of commencements allowed under the government's proposed crackdown.
Under the federal government's proposed overhaul of the higher education sector, no more than 145,000 international students would be able to start their studies in Australian universities in 2025. Many smaller universities have said they're confident the places they have already offered to international students will not have to be cancelled.

"For several years we've been working to ensure our growth in international student enrolments has been slow, consistent and sustainable, including by putting in place our own caps on high-demand programs," the University of Sydney spokesperson said in a statement.
"This is about setting the system up in a better and a fairer way, so it's not just a lucky few universities that benefit from international education, but it's the whole sector," he said.
