I don't agree that Value of Australian degrees are going down the toilet. Australian degrees (bachelor degrees awarded by universities) still have lot of value in Asian countries as well as other parts of the world.See the latest TIME rankings and you
will see 8 universities are in top 100 worldwide.

You hear the news because Australian government actually crackdown these colleges unlike our Asian colleges which actually does nothing so no one knows what actually is happening.Also please don't be mistaken about universities to the private colleges.And even colleges are not that bad as it looks .Some of the private colleges like billy blue, SAE, Carrick, Le Corden have worldwide reputation.

Thanks
