Guidelines For Students
The choice of what, where and when to study can be confusing. We
provide you with up to date information on quality schools, colleges
and Universities to suit your goals and budget. Accredited courses
available for overseas students range from English to Business to
Naturopathy, from Music to Tourism to Computers.
We advise you and will promptly answer questions on tuition fees,
entrance requirements, starting dates, facilities, class sizes,
etc. And if you need help with your student visa application we
can help there too. Students and their families are allowed to work,
so to help you get a job you can also have your qualifications and
references translated by our accredited translators. Many overseas
people recognise that Australia has a well developed and high quality
education system, many support services, a cosmopolitan population,
and a safe and pleasant environment.
A student visa is for full-time study, usually 25 hrs per week.
Courses less than 12 weeks and for study not leading to formal
awards can be undertaken on a tourist or working holiday visa.
It is now possible for people from gazetted countries to transfer
from a tourist visa or working holiday visa to a student visa
in Australia. Students have to remain with the institution for
the first 12 months of the course or the length of the course
if it is shorter than a year unless they get permission from DIMA
to transfer. This is possible only under exceptional circumstances.
To guarantee quality courses must be approved by the government
before they can be included on the Commonwealth Register of Institutions
and Courses for Overseas Students (CRICOS). Tuition fees must
be placed in a trust account and can only be drawn down according
to government guidelines.
The student first enrols in the school and then takes their
acceptance letter to the nearest Australian Embassy to apply for
the visa. The student visa application fee is currently $290 and
registration fees for schools range from $100 to around $300.
These fees are non-refundable in the case that the application
is unsuccessful. An application may be rejected if the Immigration
officer does not believe that the applicant is a genuine student
or if the student does not have enough money to support themselves
during their stay. Prospective students from non-gazetted countries
must do a Pre-visa Assessment before enrolling and applying for
a visa.
