In general, Australian study visas require applicants to hold a valid and recognized qualification from an accredited institution. While distance education programs may be recognized and accredited in Australia, it ultimately depends on the specific program and institution.
If you have received an offer letter for a program in Australia, you should check with the institution to confirm whether your distance education degree certificate will be accepted for the purposes of obtaining a study visa. You should also review the visa requirements and guidelines carefully, as they may specify additional requirements for distance education qualifications.
It is important to note that the Australian government has recently made changes to its visa policies and procedures, including due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. It is recommended that you review the latest updates and guidelines from the Australian Department of Home Affairs to ensure you have the most up-to-date information on visa requirements and application procedures.

Getting an Australian study visa with a distance education degree is definitely possible. Here’s what you need to know if you're planning to study in Australia on such a visa:
Main Requirements: The key is to make sure you're enrolled in a course that’s registered in Australia (look for CRICOS registration). You’ve already got an offer letter, which is a great first step!
What You Need to Show: You must show that you can pay for your stay and studies in Australia, you can speak English well enough to study there, and that you have health insurance coverage for overseas students.
Validity of Your Degree: Some people worry whether their online degree will be accepted. In Australia, as long as your distance education program meets the educational standards and is properly accredited, you should be fine.
Advice: Double-check all your documents and make sure everything is clear and correct. It’s also a good idea to talk to someone who knows a lot about visas to help you make sure you’ve got everything ready.
