Admissions/Entry/Visa Requirements There is no federal or state level application system for international students applying to universities in Australia, so you will need to apply directly to the university, most probably online.


In order to study for an undergraduate degree (or a taught master’s degree) in Australia you will need a Higher Education Sector: Temporary Visa (Subclass 573).


The Process for Obtaining a Student Visa is as Follows: • To be eligible you must be accepted onto a course which is registered on the Commonwealth Register of Institutions of Courses (CRICOS). You’ll need an online code, a copy of your confirmation of enrolment, or an offer letter to serve as proof of this. You will be able to change course, but it must be to one of the same level, or else you will need to be apply for a new visa.


• Students who fall into assessment level 1 will simply need to attest that they have enough money, while students at all other levels will need to prove that they have at least enough money to cover the first year of their stay.


• You may be required to take a medical and/or a radiological check-up to show that you are in good health, but you shouldn’t do this unless you are specifically advised that you must. If you are told to take a test then you must attend an appointment with a doctor who has been approved by the Australian immigration department.


• You are also obliged to purchase Overseas Student Health Cover – OSHC


• You will need to submit evidence of all the above along with application form 157A, four passport pictures and proof of your academic record. Applications must be made no more than 124 days (around four months) before your course starts. You may be asked to attend an interview at a local visa office.
