What about studying in Australia?

First, the visa process for studying in Australia

1, first select the visa category and the corresponding evaluation level. There are many kinds of visas in Australia, which are related to the schools and courses of studying abroad.

2, according to the visa category and evaluation level to prepare the corresponding information, which is also the most prone to problems. Proof of deposit or loan for studying abroad, proof of parents' income, household registration book, ID card, birth notarization and other personal information documents; After the information is complete, you should also buy OSHC for overseas students. For OSHC, please refer to Xuedao. com's WeChat Xuedao Selection. Details are as follows:

① Personal information (passport, passport photo (taken within 6 months), birth notarization)

② Family information (family ID card+household registration book (original+English translation)

③ Academic aspects (notarized transcripts, attendance/graduation certificates, notarized degree certificates, COE).

④ Language (IELTS score report is at least 5 points)

⑤ Fund preparation: deposit (proof of parents' income (original+translation), original proof of deposit (which can be frozen until the beginning of school), and corresponding certificate of fixed deposit or copy of passbook (with a deposit period of more than 3 months).

⑥ Visa application fee

3. Submit a visa application. After you get the COE(Certificate of Enrollment, translated into Chinese, which means to confirm the admission notice) and prepare all the visa materials, you can submit the application in two ways:

(1) e-visa:

Australia has developed an online application operating system, E-Visa, which charges a large amount of fees to China students, making the application convenient and quick.

(2) Paper visa:

When China citizens living in People's Republic of China (PRC) apply for a student visa outside Australia, they need to send the visa application materials directly to the overseas student visa processing center in Adelaide, the Department of Immigration.

The time for a paper visa is about 3-4 months, and that for an electronic visa is 1-2 months.

4. Physical examination. A very watery process, as long as there is no Ebola and the like, basically no problem. However, pay attention to shopping around, different hospitals have different prices, but pay attention to Australian official certification, which can be found online.

5. Prepare for the telephone survey. Attention, you'd better leave your mobile phone. If the consulate can't contact you, the visa may be refused. There is no way to have power and willfulness.

6. Receive the visa results. On April 12, the new measures for student visa holders to go to Australia were implemented: with the consent of the people of China and the Ministry of Public Security, the Australian Immigration Department allowed citizens of China and other countries with student visas to go to Australia without going through the visa application procedure (that is, to go to Australia with a visa) from June 12.

Second, matters needing attention

1. Select the correct visa category.

[570 visa] Only apply for language courses in Australia, and IELTS needs more than 5 points, but at present, this visa is basically impossible to handle.

[57 1 visa] Middle school students can study in Australia in three grades: 10,1,12. Students who must attend ordinary senior high schools (except vocational high schools, technical secondary schools and technical schools) can enjoy the right of IELTS exemption, and there are strict requirements on the age and curriculum of entering Australia.

[572 Visa] To apply for TAFE, diploma, certificate and other highly specialized courses in Australia, IELTS 5.5 requires more than 5 points. According to the requirements of the Australian Immigration Bureau, the minimum requirement for not continuing to study language courses in the local area is 5.5 points, and the actual situation needs to be determined according to the specific requirements of various majors in the school.

【 573 Visa 】 Apply for Australian undergraduate courses, teach postgraduate degree courses, postgraduate diploma courses and postgraduate diploma courses, and the IELTS score is above 5. According to the requirements of the Australian Immigration Bureau, the minimum requirement for not continuing to study language courses in the local area is IELTS 6, depending on the specific requirements of each major in the school. At the same time, to apply for this kind of visa, you must have a high school diploma.

[Visa 574] To apply for the research-oriented postgraduate degree program in Australia, IELTS score of 6 should be above 5. According to the requirements of the Australian Immigration Bureau, the minimum requirement for not continuing to study language courses in the local area is 6, and the actual situation needs to be determined according to the specific requirements of each major in the school.

[Visa 575] IELTS needs more than 5 points to apply for preparatory courses, preparatory courses or other non-academic courses in Australia. However, at present, it is unlikely that the Australian Immigration Bureau will approve such visas alone. Generally, domestic students don't just apply for this kind of visa alone, but usually submit it together with the undergraduate degree courses behind the preparatory course and apply for the 573 visa directly.

Time is very important when you submit your visa.

As mentioned above, there are two visa processing methods in Australia: electronic visa and ordinary paper visa. E-visa only takes about 1 month on average, but it is not open to students, while ordinary paper visa may take 3 months or even longer. Therefore, DIY children's shoes should actively prepare for visas, such as applying for schools, taking IELTS, and preparing deposit certificates. Otherwise, think about it. You are eating hot pot, holding a plane ticket and an admission notice, and your visa won't come down yet. What kind of bike do you need?

3. The amount of the deposit should be sufficient.

Whether you are a local tyrant or not, please don't be willful. Australia needs to make sure that you have enough funds to meet the needs of university and daily life. If you apply for a master's degree in undergraduate teaching or a TAFE visa to study abroad, you need to deposit in the bank for half a year. If it is less than six months, you need to apply for a study abroad loan. 570 language, 574, 575 visa deposits, bank deposits need to be kept for 3 months. Telephone survey will also stab in the back, and the amount of guarantee will be a question about your guarantor's financial situation.

4. The materials should be authentic.

Australia is a very honest country. If the applicant is found to have submitted false materials, 100% will refuse the visa.

5. Learning purpose

Choosing a major is a technical job. Many students will choose a major that is very different from their original major or work experience considering immigration or employment. The large span will not only increase the difficulty of their study, but also become a potential reason for refusing visas.

6. Pay attention to auxiliary materials

Some parents of students run companies or do business, so it is better to provide relevant information. When preparing visa materials, we must consider all matters in detail, and don't provide incomplete or false visa materials for temporary convenience.

7. Ways to pay tuition fees

Schools in Australia are not easy to handle, and the requirements for remittance methods are different, such as money orders and wire transfers. Be sure to read carefully when paying money to avoid losing your visa and folding your money. The safer way is to communicate with the relevant teachers by email or telephone before paying the money.

Third, the common reasons for refusal

Although it is unlikely to refuse the visa, learn the Tao. Bian Xiao collected three most common reasons for visa refusal here to warn all students to take preventive measures.

1. Wrong visa category. As the saying goes, many applicants don't understand the specific requirements of the Immigration Bureau for visa types, which leads to the failure to meet the basic requirements for submitting applications and are refused visas at the PVA (Visa Pre-assessment) stage. There are many kinds of student visas, ranging from 570 to 574, and each type has different requirements for students' age, English, education and funds.

2. I don't know the calculation requirements of the immigration bureau for the guarantee funds, and I was refused the visa because of insufficient funds. Because of different categories, the Immigration Bureau has different specific requirements on the funds for student visas (including accompanying student visas and guardian visas). You can't copy others or other categories to calculate your own financial security. A slight negligence will lead to insufficient funds, and sometimes the visa will be ruthlessly refused because of the wrong credit certificate. For example, the visa officer clearly pointed out in a letter to a student that "after calculation, your funds are insufficient and the difference is A $5,673, so your visa application is rejected".

3. The submitted economic guarantee certificate is inconsistent with the income. Inaccurate or untrue materials are the main reasons for refusing visas. Even some applicants with good conditions make the materials that fully meet the requirements look like fake materials. There is also this situation. Generally, PVA passes the customs clearance. After the students pay the tuition fees, the Immigration Bureau investigates the source of income of the fund guarantor and refuses to issue a visa after confirming that the materials are untrue. Most of these situations occur because the investigation procedures and methods of the Immigration Bureau are not clear, which leads to misunderstanding and refusal of visas.

Fourth, summary.

Because Australian universities want to recruit talents (children) and talents (gold), they are open to international students as a whole, and visas are not difficult to obtain, so students don't have to worry. However, it is precisely because many people despise Australians' requirements for honesty and rigor that they are too negligent, so that visa applications are not smooth and even refused. Therefore, while studying Taoism, Xiao would like to remind you that an Australian visa is not that simple. Based on my own situation, I studied the relevant policies and compiled the relevant materials in a true and comprehensive way. Countries located in the Pacific Rim in the southern hemisphere warmly welcome you.
