Study in Regional Australia

A second Graduate visa (485) is available that will allow for an additional year of post-study work rights for those who:

• Graduate from a regional campus with a Bachelor degree or higher qualification; and
• Maintained ongoing residence in a regional area, for a period of at least 2 years, while holding their first Graduate visa (485).

The definition of regional Australia for this purpose will include all of Australia except metropolitan Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane (Perth and the Gold Coast are included).
