Why choose Studyaway as your education agent in 2026?

Studyaway is a family-run Australian education agency that charges a clear service fee instead of relying only on college commissions. That fee is what lets us recommend the course that suits you, not just the one that pays us most.

How is Studyaway different from a “free” agent?

Many education agents charge students nothing upfront. Colleges pay those agents a commission instead, out of your course fees. Studyaway charges a service fee of AUD $2,500, or AUD $1,800 for Pacific Engagement Visa ballot countries. We also receive commissions from some education providers, and we say so plainly. Charging a fee means our advice does not depend only on which college pays the highest commission.

Why does paying a fee actually matter?

A fee changes who the advice serves. When an agent earns money only from commissions, advice can quietly tilt toward colleges that pay more. When you also pay a service fee, we can recommend the course and college that suit your goals, not just the one that pays us best. We are not afraid to say no, because time is more important than money.

What does Studyaway actually do for you?

We help you choose a course based on your goals, your budget, and your background. We handle your application and enrolment with the college directly. We support your student visa application, with the immigration assistance itself provided through Registered Migration Agent access. We help you compare health insurance options for your visa. We help with accommodation, from homestay to shared housing. We stay in touch after you land in Australia, not only before you leave home. Studyaway provides all students with access to a Registered Migration Agent for visa advice.

What happens after you arrive in Australia?

Our support does not stop at the airport. We help new students with practical first steps, like setting up a bank account and a mobile number. We stay available if your course, college, or city needs to change later. Ongoing support is part of the same fee, not an extra cost later on.

What proof is there that Studyaway delivers?

Studyaway holds a 5.0 star rating on Google. Over 21,000 people follow Studyaway on Facebook. Studyaway is a family business, established in 2018. We have placed more than 450 Fijian students into Australian courses. Studyaway’s ABN is 71 666 183 866.

What happens if something changes during your course?

Study plans change over time. Students switch cities, change courses, or hit a problem with a college partway through. Studyaway supports you through these changes as part of the same relationship, not as a new sale each time. We’ll never ghost you.

Who is Studyaway actually built for?

Studyaway works with students from the Pacific, India, and other regions, including many who are the first in their family to study abroad. We write in plain English and explain each step clearly as it comes up. Our goal is one long relationship, from your first enquiry through your studies, and toward a pathway to permanent residency (PR) if that fits your goals.
