New South Wales (NSW) will begin welcoming back international students from the second half of the year under a pilot program to help revitalise the academic industry.

The Australian Consumer and Competition Commission (ACCC) approved the state’s plan to bring back international students with priority to be given to students who need to complete practical or on-site components to progress or graduate from their degree.
