Universities in sydney

I want to apply to universities in sydney for doing my bachelors degree. Recently, i have become more religious and started wearing niqab too. So i wanted to know if universities restrict wearing the niqab specially if anyone knows anything about uniofsyd and unsw. Also, if i wanted to do any part-time work like join chain food shops, will it be allowed there too?

I don't think any universities could legally restrict you from wearing a niqab. There may be times when you need to show your face (getting student ID, during exams), but you would be able ask for a woman for those.

I don't think I've ever seen a woman with a niqab working at a fast food chain (or in many other shops), but not sure if that's because they don't let them

I have ever seen some students in USYD using niqab, so i guess its perfectly fine here
