INFORMATION GUIDE ON HOW TO ENROL AND GET A STUDENT VISA

Please read this BEFORE completing the application form.

We welcome you and thank you for choosing to study in Australia. All students applying to study in Australia (or New Zealand) are advised to follow these easy steps for a speedy enrolment and visa.

1. Please print out and answer all the questions in the general application form in English (you will need Acrobat Reader to view the file). You need to send two recent passport size photographs of yourself, photocopies of your latest education certificates including a list of subjects and grades (these must be translated into English). If you are applying for a Master (by research) or a Ph.D. you will also need to include a one-page research proposal.

2. Please include all the required documents with the application form together with the enrolment-processing fee. This one off fee includes enrolment, recognition of qualifications, ongoing support, and if applicable, student visa application form (eCOE / CEOS), airport pick up, accommodation placement and part time work assistance. You may pay this fee in a number of ways. Please see the application form under 'Methods of Payment'.

3. When we receive your fully completed application we will register you and send you a certified letter from the institution (Primary Acceptance Letter of Offer - PAL) confirming your enrolment in a suitable course of your choice. This Primary Acceptance Letter is the first confirmation stating that you have a place reserved for you in that institution in the time specified. (In most countries you can use this Primary Acceptance Letter to apply for a passport if you do not already have one.) We guarantee speedy acceptance in a course, but this process may take up to 2 months.

4. If you are applying as an applicant from countries in Assessment Level 3 or 4 (we will inform you of your country's Assessment Level) you should NOT obtain an eCEO or pay the first semester's tuition fee until AFTER you have lodged your pre-visa assessment application with the nearest Australian embassy or consulate. If the assessment of your application is favourable the embassy will issue you with a letter of genuineness, which means you have been assessed as a bona fide student.

5 (a). After receiving the letter of genuineness from the Australian Embassy please send it to us together with the first semester's tuition fee, the Overseas Students Health Cover and payment for four weeks' accommodation (if required).

5 (b). Students from countries in Assessment Level 1 or 2 (we will inform you of your country's Assessment Level) are required to send the first semester's tuition fee once they receive the Primary Acceptance Letter of Offer from us. A pre-visa assessment is NOT required.

6. Once your tuition fees have been received we will send you an eCOE (visa application form), which you need to present to the nearest Australian embassy for your medical examination. Our office will send students the details of who to contact in the Australian embassy nearest you and also a free video on education and lifestyle in Australia.

7. When you purchase your airline ticket please notify us as soon as possible of your arrival details so we can meet you at the airport and take you to your accommodation.

Please note:
1 - Most of our students receive a discount of up to 20% on their tuition fee.
2 - Australian student visa allows students to work up to 20 hours a week while studying, and full time during the holidays.

We wish you every success and thank you for choosing us to help you achieve your goals.
