Why study abroad?

Every year hundreds of thousands of students choose to study in English-speaking countries. Here is why.

Globally recognised degrees

Qualifications from Australia, New Zealand, the UK, the USA and Canada are respected by employers and universities everywhere.

Flexible study options

Thousands of courses at every level — English, vocational, bachelor’s, master’s and PhD — with multiple intakes through the year.

Work while you study

Student visas in all five destinations let you work part-time during term and full-time in the holidays, and most offer a post-study work visa.

Safe, welcoming communities

Multicultural cities, reliable transport, excellent healthcare and a quality of life that is consistently ranked among the best in the world.

Common questions

Does AMET charge for its counselling and application service?

No. Course counselling, institution matching and lodging your applications are free. Some optional services such as visa lodgement, migration advice and English test preparation carry a fee, which we will always quote before you commit.

Which country is the cheapest to study in?

It depends on the course and the city. Tuition is generally lowest in New Zealand and Canada, the UK’s one-year master’s degrees keep total costs down, and Australia offers strong scholarships and work rights. A counsellor can compare the true total cost — tuition, living expenses and what you can earn while studying — for your shortlist.

Can I work while I study?

Yes in all five destinations, with limits set by each country’s student visa — for example up to 25 hours a week in New Zealand and 24 hours a week in Canada during term, and more during scheduled breaks. Most destinations also offer a post-study work visa.

When should I start?

Ideally six to twelve months before your intended intake. That leaves time for English tests, university offers, scholarships and the student visa. If your start date is closer than that, contact us anyway — many institutions accept late applications.
