“Australian government has banned Indian students from Gujarat, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, and Bihar from enrolling in Australian universities due to concerns over visa fraud and document forgery.”
What FACTLY found
The Australian government has not imposed any such ban. Some universities temporarily paused admissions from certain Indian states in 2023 due to high visa rejection and dropout rates, but these were independent decisions and were later lifted. However, recent data shows Indian students face higher visa rejection rates, with approval rates dropping from nearly 90% to around 65%.
