If you wish to study in Australia for more than 3 months you will need an Australia Student Visa.

To apply for an Australia Student Visa you will need:

• Notification of your acceptance into a full-time course at an Australian education institution;
• The Australian education provider must be registered with the Australian Government to offer courses to overseas students;
• Evidence of your financial capacity to pay for your course fees, living expenses, air tickets and other general expenses during your time in Australia;

A student visa for Australia is usually only valid for the duration of your course of study in Australia and will expire soon after the course finishes.

Visa First can organise your Australia Student Visa in 2-3 weeks once you have been accepted into a course.
