Student Consultancy
We have been involved in assisting student migration in different categories around Australia. Academic standards in Australia are high, particularly in the universities. Australian universities have an international reputation for excellence in lots of different fields and are known for their innovative and research-intensive culture.
In the World University Rankings 2007, published by The Times Higher Education Supplement, six Australian universities appeared in the top 50 and only eight UK institutions made to that level. Qualifications awarded by the Australian universities are internationally recognized and highly regarded by employers and overseas universities alike.
Student visas are divided into subclasses based on the principal course of study. The Department of Immigration associates a certain risk to the issue of student visas and to this effect base the different student visas on assessment factors - examples include: the sector of study and the applicant's nationality.
Students who have obtained certain Australian qualifications are potentially able to apply for new categories of permanent skilled visas in Australia on completion of their studies.
The different student visa subclasses (based on the intended studies) : -
· 570 - English Language Intensive Courses for Overseas Students (ELICOS) - Applies to stand-alone English language courses that lead to a certificate I, II, III or IV, or that result in no formal Australian award.
· 571 - Primary or Secondary school course - Applies to primary, junior secondary or senior secondary school courses, and approved secondary school exchange programs.
· 572 - Vocational education and training sector - Applies to Certificates I, II, III or IV (except ELICOS), diploma, advanced diploma, vocational graduate certificate or vocational graduate diploma courses.
· 573 - Higher education - Applies to a Bachelor degree, associate degree, graduate certificate, graduate diploma, or Masters by coursework.
· 574 - Postgraduate research - Applies to Masters by research or a doctoral degree.
· 575 - Non-award - Applies to non-award foundation studies, or other full-time courses or components of courses not leading to an Australian award.
· 576 - AusAID or Defence - Applies to students sponsored by AusAID or the Australian Department of Defence undertaking full-time courses of any type.
· 580 - Student Guardians - Parents or relatives can apply for a visa to stay in Australia as the guardian of a student who is studying in Australia.
Students must provide evidence that they have sufficient funds to fund accommodation, pay for airfares, course tuition fees, overseas student health cover (OSHC) and all general expenses during their stay in Australia. The assessment factors will review the student's financial resources in this regard.
Strict conditions are imposed on student visa holders (see examples below) - a breach of any of these conditions may lead to the cancellation of the visa.
The student must satisfy attendance and/or course requirements and maintain a valid enrolment for the chosen course of study. Students are required to attend a minimum of 80% of all classes which is closely monitored by DIAC, and have to achieve satisfactory academic results.
Students are allowed to work only after they have received their work permission from the immigration. Work hour is limited to 20 hours per week.
The student must remain with the education provider with whom the student enrolled for the first 12 months of the course (or for the duration of the course if the course lasts for less than 12 months). Other circumstances are exceptional based on the institutes ‘policies and obligations.
