Abstract
Historically, graduate students from overseas countries have figured prominently in the life of the ANU. For example, overseas PhD students have contributed substantially to the research output of some Research Schools right from their inception. In 1990 there were 426 overseas graduate students enrolled at the ANU, approximately equal to the number of overseas undergraduates (435). Prior to 1986 almost all overseas students who came to Australia were either fully or partly subsidised by the Government. From 1986, Universities were permitted to offer places to overseas students at full cost, with the Government setting minimum course fees for full-fee paying overseas students. Nationally, total student arrivals doubled between 1986 and 1989. The subsidised-student scheme was formally discontinued after the 1989 intake. All commencing overseas students are now full-fee paying, the fees being paid either privately, by an Australian Government scholarship, or by some other sponsoring agency.
