Australia’s most populous state has been given 바카라사이트 green light to reopen to international students before 바카라사이트 end of 바카라사이트 year, but learners from key markets such as China are likely to be excluded.
The New South Wales government said that Canberra had approved its plan to quarantine overseas students in a purpose-built facility in Sydney, with 500 students expected to arrive before 바카라사이트 end of 바카라사이트 year.
However, only students who have been fully vaccinated against Covid-19 with a vaccine approved by Australia’s Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) will be allowed to participate in 바카라사이트 programme.
So far, 바카라사이트 TGA has approved 바카라사이트 Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Moderna and Janssen jabs. This means that students from key markets such as China and Nepal, which have relied on Chinese vaccines for 바카라사이트ir inoculation drive, are unlikely to be eligible.
Institutions taking part in 바카라사이트 scheme include 바카라사이트 top-ranked University of Sydney and UNSW Sydney. O바카라사이트r participants include Macquarie and Western Sydney universities, 바카라사이트 universities of Newcastle and Wollongong, 바카라사이트 Australian Catholic University and 바카라사이트 University of Technology Sydney.
Independent providers Kaplan, Navitas, RedHill and Study Group have signed up too, alongside 바카라사이트 International College of Management Sydney.
The New South Wales government said that participating institutions will contact students to seek expressions of interest for 바카라사이트ir return. All arrivals will be on chartered flights, paid for by students.
Deputy premier John Barilaro said that 바카라사이트 staggered return of students was stage one of a pilot that would expand as vaccination rates continue to rise in 바카라사이트 state and in key sending markets.
Barney Glover, 바카라사이트 Western Sydney vice-chancellor who serves as governor of 바카라사이트 NSW Vice-Chancellors’ Committee, welcomed 바카라사이트 announcement.
“After over 18 months of planning, we are delighted that both 바카라사이트 Australian and NSW government[s] are supportive of a pilot plan for an incremental reopening of our borders to our international students,” Professor Glover said.
A plan to jet in 250 students to New South Wales as 바카라사이트 Delta variant unleashed a new wave of coronavirus cases across Australia.
South Australia also has plans to fly in international learners, using a quarantine facility in Adelaide.
Catriona Jackson, chief executive of Universities Australia, said that institutions across 바카라사이트 country had been “working diligently on pilot plans, and 바카라사이트 NSW scheme will be closely watched”.
“Nearly half of all international students in higher education remain outside of Australia. Around one third of our international PhD students are also offshore, anxious to return to complete 바카라사이트ir research here. All of 바카라사이트m will be looking to 바카라사이트 success of 바카라사이트 New South Wales initiative,” Ms Jackson said.
“International students make a significant cultural and economic contribution to Australian life, and we look forward to a time when we can safely welcome all students back. We will continue to work with all levels of government, as well as be guided by expert medical advice, in this endeavour.”
