replies: text: I say merge into List of universities in Australia, as it is the clearer and cleaner of the two, and conforms with titles like Transportation in Australia, List of cities in Australia, List of mountains in Australia, etc. TPK 11:20, 15 Jun 2004 (UTC)

message: I hardly think any of these qualify as "universities" and should be removed from this list. A "degree" from most of these would more than likely not be recognised by other, "real" universities, perhaps with the exception of the minority. I strongly recommend deletion. If they warrant an entry at all, perhaps something to the order of "Christian education institutions in Australia" or something to that effect. Definitely not this page.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.171.191.59 (talk) 12:13, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

message: TAFEs (especially in Victoria) are moving into the position once held by CAEs. They're starting to issue degrees and other higher ed awards under the auspices of state governments. In Victoria, there are many government owned insitutions that teach both higher ed and VET courses of their own design - some are called "universities" and some are called "TAFEs". The difference is becoming more and more blurred.
Once the federal education department finishes it's present review of the sector, things could get even more confusing. matturn 07:35, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

message: These two areas are best merged as half of the unis in the ACT operate in NSW. Additionally, is the ANU an ACT university, or is it national as it's name suggests? While it only has campuses in the ACT, it does operate further afield. matturn 08:15, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, but no Australian universities are national in the sense of being 'nationwide' (except insofar as they offer distance education, but to that extent they're generally 'worldwide'). Indeed, I've never heard of any university anywhere which operates on a nationally-distributed basis. mgekelly 08:09, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

text: The closest we have to a university operating on a national basis is the Australian Catholic University with campuses in NSW, QLD, Vic and the ACT. In fact the university's marketing department has branded the uni as ACU National Soundabuser 09:59, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

message: Given the changed composition of Lists A and B, I believe all the institutions in this list should be included as universities. Is there any current regulation that treats Batchelor, MCD and the soon-to-be-defunct AMC differently from "universities"? 203.33.3.2 (talk) 00:51, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

message: The external link "Australian University Directory" has totally fictitious information on it. For example it states that The University of Queensland offers courses in "Acupuncture". This is nonsense as are many of its other claims. It appears to be a site that has simply added as many links as possible (including wikipedia)to increase its Search Ranking and improve chances for clicks on its Ad Words advertising. The information on this site is unsubstantiated, unreliable and at times simply wrong.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.102.0.171 (talk) 01:38, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
