“Universities strongly support the Government’s intent to provide more students with the transformative experience of a university education while also addressing our country’s immediate skills needs,” Universities Australia Chief Executive Catriona Jackson said.
“A university education is a mighty cause for good, setting people up for a fulfilling career and opening up opportunities they otherwise wouldn’t have.
“These additional places will ensure more Australians benefit from a world-class education.
“We congratulate the Government for following through on its election commitment and making university more accessible and inclusive for more Australians.”
