CANBERRA, Oct 06 (Xinhua): International students will return to Australia in October after Charles Darwin University (CDU) received approval to conduct a pilot program.

The university in Northern Territory (NT) announced on Monday that it has received government approval to fly up to 70 students into Darwin from Singapore in late October.

According to information from the university's official website, the students, who are likely to come from a range of countries including China, will become the first international students since the federal government closed borders to international travellers in March in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Upon arrival in the NT they will spend 14 days in quarantine before beginning classes at CDU on Nov. 9.
