Australia has a subsidized higher education for students pursuing the undergraduate degrees. They also give loan and grants for the post graduate students. Higher learning starts at undergraduate degree level to a doctoral degree offered in any field of study.

Students wishing to pursue advanced legal studies may benefit from a Master of Science in Legal Studies, or MLS. Because this degree is not necessarily required for many careers, it may stand out on a resume and give a graduate an advantage over other applicants.

Part time learning allows one to obtain part-time degrees even if one cannot attend school on a full-time basis. One can learn at his or own pace, gradually accumulating credits which count towards final qualification.
