            Birrell of Melbourne's Monash University, said almost all the 12,000 graduates tested for the survey were from Asia because these students are the most likely to apply for permanent residency on completing their studies.
However, he said that he believed the study to be representative of all foreign students, partly because Asia was a major source of fee-paying overseas students for Australian universities. “It does raise questions about university standards,” Birrell told AFP. Tertiary institutions are reliant on international students because they provide 15 percent of funding, leading to suggestions that academic standards are sacrificed in favor of financial rewards.
            Education Minister Julie Bishop described the survey as "an extraordinary attack by Professor Birrell on our universities." “International students must meet international benchmarks in language in order to get a place in a university in Australia,” she said. The study found all graduates tested had enough command of the language to cope in most situations. “But people who have reached this standard are still not capable of conducting a sophisticated discourse at the professional level,” it said.
            In his report, Birrell said there was a "mountain of anecdotal material" that many overseas students struggle to meet their course requirements and that universities cope by lowering the English demands of the courses. “There is widening recognition of the English duduk perkara,” he said. “But universities were hesitant to make students take ekstralanguage courses because this would make them more expensive and therefore less attractive than rival institutions,” he said. However, Professor Gerard Sutton, the president of the Australian Vice-Chancellors Committee, said most foreign students would be proficient in reading, writing and listening to English. “What I think has been highlighted is a deficiency in spoken language,” he told AFP, adding that a deficiency in this area would not prevent them from completing a university course.
