Transferring to college in australia

<p>Hi :) Bit of a long post, so bear with me please.
I am a US citizen, who wants to transfer to a university in Australia, as I would like to move there as a student and eventually go down the path to citizenship.
I am currently a sophomore at a private college in New York, though I'll be at a SUNY school in the spring 2013 term.
I graduated high school in 2009, completed my freshman year, didn't do so well my original sophomore year, and left college until this past fall of 2012, where I went back to the same school and restarted sophomore year. I still have a low GPA due to my past transgressions, but I have ~30 completed credits, and my SAT and ACT scores are high.
Is it too late so get accepted to an Australia University, get a student visa, and get loans in time for the 2013-2014 school year?
Thanks :)</p>
