Student Migration

Australia has a comprehensive Student Visa regime that allows you to enter Australia and study within the school system at almost any level from primary school to University.

To be eligible for a visa you must be fully enrolled in an Australian institution and receive a “Confirmation of Enrollment (COE)”. COE’s are issued by the Australian education institution you will be attending. The forms are usually issued after the tuition fees have been received.

Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) is compulsory and you will not be able to apply for your student visa until you have purchased a policy.

What do I need to apply?

• The correct Application form.
• Visa Application fee.
• Confirmation of Enrolment Form (COE).
• Acceptance letter from your education institution, including the proposed study plan.
• Letter (from your current institution confirming status as a Study Abroad Student).
• Overseas health insurance receipt (issued when OSHC has been paid).
• Passport.
• 2 passport sized photographs.

Can I work?

You will need to apply for a visa with 'permission to work’ after you commence study. If you are given permission, there will be restrictions on the number of hours you will be allowed to work in a week. As an international student, you can work a maximum of 20 hours per week during the term, and unlimited hours during recognised periods of vacation.
