Are you planning to study in Australia? Understanding the visa landscape is the first step toward your international education journey. Based on recent data for the first half of the 2025-26 financial year (July 2025 to December 2025), the Higher Education sector remains a strong pathway for Nepalese students, though success rates vary significantly by state and month.
In this blog, we break down the latest visa grant rates for Nepal and explain why partnering with a high-success consultancy like Right and Associates is vital for your application.
State-by-State Visa Success Analysis (Nepal)
The data reveals a trend of exceptionally high success rates during the start of the financial year (July–September), with some fluctuations as the year progressed into December.
1. The Top Performers: ACT, NT, and TAS
Regional territories and the capital showed remarkable stability for Nepalese applicants:
- Australian Capital Territory (ACT): Maintained a 100% success rate from July all the way through November, with a slight dip to 75% in December.
- Northern Territory (NT): Achieved a perfect 100% grant rate for four consecutive months (July–Oct), ending the year strong at 66.7% in December.
- Tasmania (TAS): Boasted a 100% success rate for the first four months, proving to be one of the most reliable destinations for visa approvals.
2. Consistent Mainland Success: WA, QLD, and SA
- Western Australia (WA): Stayed highly competitive with rates between 94% and 100% from July to October.
- Queensland (QLD): Started very strong at 99.4% (July) and 98.7% (August), maintaining over 90% through October.
- South Australia (SA): A favorite for many, SA saw a 100% success rate in August and remained above 90% until November.
3. The Competitive Hubs: NSW and VIC
As the most popular destinations, New South Wales and Victoria saw the highest volume of applications, which led to more rigorous screening toward the end of the year:
- New South Wales (NSW): Maintained a solid 93.8% in July, peaking at 95% in August. However, December saw a significant tightening to 52.3%.
- Victoria (VIC): Started strong at 96.2% (July) and 97.7% (August), before tapering off to 43.5% in December.
Key Takeaway: Timing and Accuracy Matter
The data shows a clear trend: Applications submitted in the first quarter of the financial year (July–September) enjoyed the highest success rates. As quotas fill and Department of Home Affairs scrutiny increases toward the end of the calendar year, the "margin for error" on your application disappears.
This is where your choice of consultancy becomes the deciding factor between a grant and a refusal.
