Australian private colleges slash diploma fees amid visa crackdown

Private colleges across Australia are offering last-minute discounts on a diploma in management that has been deregistered amid an immigration crackdown, with the qualification allegedly 'misused by shonks'. The discounts follow government action against providers suspected of exploiting the diploma to help people obtain student visas. Critics say the scheme highlights ongoing loopholes in Australia's international education and visa system.
Why now: A government visa and provider crackdown has drawn attention to colleges still discounting the affected diploma.
