Admission is not the same as the visa
Australian universities increasingly accept the DET for admission, but the student-visa English requirement is nationality- and category-dependent: some applicants must provide a test taken at a physical centre, others are exempt. The DET is not a guaranteed standalone for the visa — check your visa category and nationality-specific rules.
Applying from Saint Lucia
At about $70 the DET is taken online from Saint Lucia — no test-centre travel, and far cheaper than IELTS. Saint Lucia is English-medium; Duolingo English Test often waived where prior study was in English — confirm per university.
