G'day,
It is best that you speak to the nearest Australian High Comm/Embassy in regards to your situation.
If you have to come to Australia using a student visa, then you are not eligible for those mentioned above.
If you got permanent residence (PR), then you may or may not able to get it, since there are some restrictions on what a PR can get in regards to benefits (even medicare).
If you got Aust Citizenship... great! Altho have to be careful just in case the current country you are in have objection towards dual-citizenship.
Have you decided on which uni you wanna study? E-mail me on mikegun@studentfirst.com.au if you have queries abt the unis.
Hope this helps. Below is the link to Dept. of Immigration. Good luck for your study and welcome to Australia :)
