1. Admission Process for International Students
Education agencies act as intermediaries between students and Australian educational institutions, guiding students from initial inquiry to the final stages of enrolment. The process generally involves several key steps:
a. Assessing Student Eligibility:
Academic qualifications: Agencies evaluate students’ previous academic performance to ensure they meet the minimum entry requirements for their chosen course and institution.
English proficiency: International students must meet specific English language requirements, often proven through tests like IELTS, TOEFL, or PTE. Agencies help students understand these requirements and prepare for tests if necessary.
Genuine Temporary Entrant (GTE) requirement: Students must demonstrate, as part of the visa process, that their primary purpose is to study and that they intend to return to their home country after their course.
b. Course and Institution Selection:
Agencies work with various universities, TAFEs (Technical and Further Education institutions), and private colleges. They provide students with tailored advice on course options, rankings, locations, and career outcomes to find the best fit for the student’s goals.
Agencies also help students choose institutions with courses that align with their previous qualifications and future career ambitions.
c. Document Preparation and Application Submission:
Application submission: Education agencies assist students with preparing the necessary documentation, which includes academic transcripts, English test scores, statements of purpose (SOP), and recommendation letters.
Application fees: Agencies ensure that students are aware of any associated costs and application fees that may apply.
d. Receiving the Offer Letter:
Once applications are submitted, agencies follow up with the institutions on behalf of the student. After the institution reviews the application, the student will receive an offer letter if successful.
e. Acceptance and Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE):
Agencies help students accept the offer and pay the required tuition deposit. Once the payment is made, the institution issues a Confirmation of Enrollment (CoE), which is a critical document needed for the student visa application.
2. Visa Assistance
Agencies guide students through the student visa (subclass 500) application process. This includes submitting the CoE, GTE statement, health insurance (OSHC), financial capacity, and other required documents.
Agencies often offer mock interviews to prepare students, if required, for the visa interview process.
3. Course Change Process
International students studying in Australia might want to change their course or institution after arrival due to academic reasons, personal preferences, or career goals. Education agencies assist students in managing this process while ensuring compliance with Australian immigration laws.
a. Understanding Visa Conditions:
Students on a student visa must comply with conditions that may restrict them from changing courses within the first six months of their principal course (usually the highest qualification for which they hold a visa). Agencies advise students on how to navigate these restrictions.
b. Assessing Transfer Eligibility:
Course and provider regulations: Agencies evaluate the student’s current situation, ensuring that they meet any prerequisites for a course transfer, such as meeting academic progression requirements.
Release letter requirement: If a student wishes to transfer before completing six months of their primary course, they will need a release letter from their current institution. Agencies help students apply for this letter.
c. Finding Alternative Course/Institution:
If a student is approved for a course change, the agency will assist in finding a more suitable program or institution that better aligns with their new goals or circumstances. This may involve re-submitting documents and restarting part of the application process.
d. New CoE and Visa Update:
Upon successful admission into the new course or institution, the agency helps the student obtain a new CoE and guides them through the process of updating their student visa with the Australian Department of Home Affairs if required.
4. Ongoing Support
Education agencies provide continuous support throughout the student’s journey in Australia, from pre-departure briefings to assistance with accommodation and helping students navigate any issues during their studies.
