Baba I disagree with you on this, the truth is that these schools know that we are using the school as a medium to cross over and that’s why they charge such huge amount for international students and this is applicable to all schools in other countries all over the world , once you are an international student and you are not a citizen or PR holder, the school will make money from you as well generate revenue for their government.

Nothing like high risk because you left the school or change to much cheaper school there or even change course, even the schools know that this is the normal format nah, how you wan pay 97.000 AUD for a 2 year program or even 47,000 AUD for a year Tuition ? Nobody go pay that except folks from a rich home.

Tertiary institutions is not suppose to be too expensive as international student but if the country must favor you in future, then you must bring something to the table as you dey enter.

Do you know how cheap the citizens or those with PR pays for a Tuition for same course we international students pay heavily for ?

So nothing like flagging us cos we dey do the needful. If there is any such thing as flagging from school then nobody will enter Australia again.

If you know how cheap you can pay for a year tuition while in Australia already, you go marvel. But try use such schools to apply from here, your chances of getting a grant is slim or even rejection.

If the school decided to flag you or reject you, they judged your case as an individual not as a country.

Yes Nigeria is a high risk country based on other factors but not cos we dey change course or school, other immigrants/ students from other countries does same.

In addition, ensure you listed or mention all your siblings (family members) plus your parents who are like ties to home country for you as you travel.
Having this two can strengthen your ties to home country you know.


Yes definitely listing that. Also listing that I’m coming back for nysc as I’m a fresh graduate. While my husband has his family here and also we are going to list properties and gift deed. Plus his business. We also plan on listing his fathers business although it hasn’t been active but we plan on saying we are coming back to keep it moving. It is a registered consulting engineering firm and my husbands name is listed in the business memorandum of management. I hope this are strong ties

Thank you very much for your help �

Please is there anyone that has applied to Kaplan business school
Do you think applying to schools that are like colleges reduces one’s chance of getting visa

Good evening everyone. Good job you guys are doing.

I secured an admission to study MPH at the Federation University for July.

The issue is that their refund policy if one is refused a study visa states that FedUni only does partial refund!!!

That's scary.

NOTE: My sponsors are quite stable financially but I have a poor immigration history (Refused UK, Canada and US visas. Lol.)

Please help.

Is there anyone who has received a visa grant with a bridging English course? My agent told me that since my PTE is not up to the required score for the school, I can apply for the bridging course for 10 weeks before moving to my chosen master's. The first payment I will make will be for the bridging course which is about AUD 5000. I will only need to pay for the master's upon completion of the bridging course. Anyone with prior experience or advice?

Vincentosa:
Sorry about your refusals. But have you taken time to review the causes of the refusals from these countries you mentioned? It will be another high risk putting in application for study visa without having to rectify the risk those visa officers has seen in your previous applications. I would strongly advice you look into that. Otherwise the Australia Immi will see you as been desperate to leave your country. That is just my personal views. I am not an immigration lawyer.

I don’t think you need to generate another. We got our biometrics and medical request mid November, but due to some challenges we were able to do it first week in January (dependent and spouse). Three weeks after approvals came in.

Please note that after lodging your application if biometrics is not done, your application won’t be looked at. Try do it as soon as you can.

My personal experience

Malcolmsweet:
Please which school in Australia can apply for my masters without the help of any agent? Thanks for your suggestions

seyifrenzy:
Thank you for your input.

But if I prepare a very good application, will I still be refused?

Unlike Canada which has a low approval rate even if one ticks all the box, what is the approval rate for an Australian Study Visa?

Jomazy:
Good day all,
I am about applying to SCU in perth for masters for October intake,
I'm trying to see the end from the beginning and I need advice.
1. If I and family are granted together, can I go ahead of them?
2. If wiffy born in Nigeria after visa is granted, how will I add new baby to Visa?
3. Abeg, how much is daycare in Aussie, the prices online are confusing me.
4. Can my wife go to sch as a dependant?
5. Perth gives 3yrs post study visa as regional area right?
Thank you

Solitin40:

1. Yes, you may enter ahead of them.
2. I'm not sure about this, but I would suggest you inform them now that your wife is pregnant so that when the time comes to add the kid to your application, you won't run into any issues.
3.over $100 per day
4.
5. Indeed. Cities and Major Regional Centres’ of Perth, Adelaide, the Gold Coast, the Sunshine Coast, Canberra, Newcastle/Lake Macquarie, Wollongong/Illawarra, Geelong and Hobart have access to the following regional incentives:

Thank you for your input.

My story is a long one.

Firstly, the US refused me cos I'm being filed for.

The UK refused me cos I was naive 6 years ago.

Canada ,recently, refused cos I had too much money in my account, and I couldn't explain how they got their. I was given actually but I didn't say so.

Overall, it has been one silly mistake or the other mostly from agents.
