Please click here if you want PrincipalVisas to find you a course or institution.
To be granted a Student Visa you will be assessed against two main factors:
- Your Passport Nationality;
- Type of Student Visa you wish to apply for.
These factors are used to determine your Assessment Level. The Assessment Levels range between 1 and 5. The lower your Assessment Level number, the less documental evidence is required.
A Student Visa is a Temporary Visa that is valid for the duration of your course. When you have completed your studies, you will be required to leave Australia by the date indicated on your visa. Please note you may be entitled to apply for another Temporary Visa or even Permanent Residence before your visa expires.
Student Visa Conditions
As the holder of a Temporary Student Visa you will be required to obtain Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) for the duration of your stay. This private health insurance fee must be paid before your visa can be issued, and is renewable every year.
In most cases, your Australian Education Institution can organise your health cover on your behalf.
