I Want To Apply For A Student Visa, What Do I Need To Know?
If you are applying for student visa, there are certain conditions and criteria that you need to meet. Before you can even apply to the Department of Home Affairs for a student visa, you need to be able to provide evidence of a confirmation of enrolment at a college, University or Educational Institution. This means that you need to apply for a placement and be accepted for that placement before you can actually apply for a student visa.
In most circumstances, you will need to have been accepted as a full-time student to be eligible for a visa.
In a nutshell...
Lydia wants to obtain an Australian student visa so that she can study in Australia. She has been accepted to Monash University in Melbourne to study geology and can provide the confirmation of enrollment (COE). Lydia is 19 years of age and has never been away from her home country in Zambia. All of Lydia’s family members have saved money for 10 years so that she could have this opportunity and are able to assist her with her basic living costs and first year’s tuition until she can obtain some employment and cover these costs herself. Lydia has saved money over the past year to be able to afford overseas student health cover as per the requirements for obtaining her visa. Lydia satisfies all of the requirements to be able to apply for her visa and she is likely to be a successful candidate.
What Eligibility Criteria Do I Need To Consider?
If you are considering your eligibility for a student visa then you will need to consider the following:
- Be enrolled in a course of study in Australia
- Hold Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC), or fall in one of the exemption categories
- Must be 6 years or older
- Prove you have a welfare arrangement, if you are under 18
We have already discussed the first point above, but it is essential you are enrolled in a course of study within Australia prior to being able to obtain a student visa. You also need to have organised overseas student health cover unless you fall within the exemption category. OSHC is a form of travel insurance that assists in the case of illness or emergency. International travelers have to pay significant costs for education and medical as they cannot easily access government benefits or other financial aid. OSHC acts as both travel insurance and health insurance to ensure that you can be appropriately cared for without incurring a significant medical bill.
There is an age requirement for a student visa which requires that the applicant be at least 6 years old. This criterion exists because any child younger than 6 years old is likely not to be in full-time schooling yet and therefore would not satisfy the first criteria on being enrolled in a course of study.
If you are under the age of 18 then you need to be able to prove that there is an appropriate welfare arrangement in place for you. This is similar to the above criteria as international travelers are unable to access financial assistance or government benefits and the Australian government needs to be satisfied that the individual will be financially taken care of whilst in Australia. Your living costs need to be appropriately covered along with all of your tuition fees. In most circumstances, tuition fees are required upfront and cannot be paid off over time.
If you are over the age of 18 then your visa may allow for some form of employment where you can earn money. This is something to consider when you apply for your visa. In any event, you will need to have sufficient funds available to you in the event that your study does not allow time for employment.
L1 I Want To Apply For A Student Visa, What Do I Need To Know?
If you are applying for student visa, there are certain conditions and criteria that you need to meet. Before you can even apply to the Department of Home Affairs for a student visa, you need to be able to provide evidence of a confirmation of enrolment at a college, University or Educational Institution. This means that you need to apply for a placement and be accepted for that placement before you can actually apply for a student visa.
In most circumstances, you will need to have been accepted as a full-time student to be eligible for a visa.
What Visa Conditions Or Visa Requirements Might I Be Under?
It is always important to know what conditions are under any visa before you apply for one because a breach of conditions or a failure to comply with any of the conditions under your visa may mean that you are prevented from making further visa applications and could face deportation. Under a student visa, the first and foremost requirement is that you can provide confirmation of enrolment at a school or educational institution. Furthermore, you need to remain enrolled at that school or institution or provide confirmation that you have been accepted to or transferred to another institution. It is important that you are enrolled at all times to avoid any issues. You will need to be able to provide the letter of offer to the Department of Home Affairs upon request. Your Visa will also provide which type of study load you are required to undertake, i.e. full-time or part-time. A part-time student engages in between 1-3 classes per semester and a full-time student engages in 4 classes per semester. Usually, a full-time load is required. There are also conditions attached to your visa which dictate whether you can gain employment, how many hours you can work, and how much money you can earn. This is usually quite minimal because it is expected that you will apply most of your time to your study. Usually, if you fail a class or course you can risk having your visa revoked. Obviously, individual circumstances are taken into account in these matters.In a nutshell...
Andrea wants to complete her higher education in Australia. Andrea has completed a bachelor’s degree in economics in her home country of England but wants to complete her postgraduate study in Australia at Deakin University. Andrea is unsure whether she should apply for a subclass 485 visa or a subclass 500 visa. Andrea wants to be able to take her partner Quade, to Australia with her along with her mother and sister. Andrea has had a look at the Department of Home Affairs website and has learned that she can live in Australia for up to 5 years while completing full-time study under a subclass 500 visa and it will allow her to bring her family and partner with her. Andrea just needs to ensure she and her family can financially support themselves while they are in Australia as they will be unable to obtain government assistance.
What Is The Genuine Temporary Entrant Requirement (GTE)?
The GTE is a means of clarifying that an applicant is applying for a student visa for its intended purpose and not as a means of continuing to reside within Australia. There are other visas for that purpose. Applicants are required to submit a statement addressing the GTE requirement Your statement should optimally be written in English (or translated into English prior to submitting) and should be backed up by evidence of what you are saying. This evidence may be in the form of educational achievements, recommendation and character letters, etc. If you do not have any evidence to help support your personal statement then it will not be as strong or convincing as it should be.What Is A Temporary Graduate Visa?
A Temporary Graduate Visa or as it is also known, a subclass 485 visa and is intended for those who have completed a CRICOS (explained below) approved course and who have held a student visa within the last 6 months. This type of visa allows the applicant to remain in Australia to either live, work, or study.In a nutshell...
George wants to apply for a new student visa so that he can continue his study in Australia and complete his postgraduate research. George has obtained his medical degree and wants to complete his research in the field of oncology treatments. George is worried that he will not be able to obtain a visa due to the pandemic as he is aware that processing times for applicants have become long and difficult. The department of foreign affairs has told George that he will need to wait until the international borders have opened before his application can be processed. George has registered for an immiaccount so that he can keep up to date with travel restrictions as they develop. George is also keeping an eye on the Department of Home Affairs website in case there are any changes.
What Is A Subclass 500 Visa?
A subclass 500 visa is a visa that allows an applicant to remain in Australia for a period of up to 5 years for the purpose of full-time study. This type of application will allow you to include your partner and your family within the application and obtain visitor visas for them. As a student visa holder, however, you will still be subject to strict criteria and eligibility requirements as well as compliance obligations
Can I Enroll In Any Course Of Study?
Under a student visa, the main requirement is that you are enrolled in a course of study at an educational institution. A student visa application must include the name of the educational institution, the course of study you intend to take along with a copy of the letter of offer. Your course of study must comply with the Commonwealth Register Of Institutions And Courses For Overseas Students (CRICOS), which provides a list of approved courses for international students to undertake.Will I Need To Be Proficient in English to Obtain A Visa?
English proficiency is a strict requirement for obtaining a student visa and an applicant must obtain a certain level to satisfy the criteria. The English proficiency required is specific to the individual visa you are applying for. You will most likely need to engage in an English Language Intensive Courses for Overseas Students (ELICOS). Each different state or education provider will provide different English language tests and English language intensive courses which range from individual tests to weeks-long courses. All international students are required to complete some level of testing to ensure that they can comply with their course and assignment requirements upon beginning education in Australia. In Australia, one of the most common and quickest testing you can complete for English proficiency is the IELTS test. This test is administered regularly and best of all, it only takes 2-5 days to receive your results.Where Can I Go For More Information?
There are two ways in which you can gain further information about student visas. The easiest way to get preliminary information is to have a look at the Department of Home Affairs Website. The website will provide you with an overview of everything you need to know about the eligibility and criteria for a student visa or other type of visa. If you feel you need more in-depth information about whether you are eligible for a visa then you should consult an immigration lawyer for more specialized advice. Immigration lawyers are experts in this area and can help you with the process to ensure your compliance with the criteria. If you are seeking information regarding the types of approved courses you can enrol in then you need to consult the Commonwealth Register Of Institutions And Courses For Overseas Students (CRICOS). If you have already registered for an immiaccount, this will give you live, up-to-date information currently regarding the global pandemic and the travel restrictions currently in place.In a nutshell...
Clyde wants to apply for a student visa so he can study in Australia. He has already completed a bachelor’s degree in psychology in India and considers that he meets the character requirements to obtain a visa to study in Australia.
