SantaClause:
Hey if your school does not have immediate accomodation I recon you come to Aussie first get an accomodation in a hotel and then meet friends and ask about accomodation....it's cheaper and easy that way than getting accomodation from a website.

Thanks but no friends over there.

Hi family member am having problem in securing accommodation.please I will be grateful if any help I have the money to pay especially Mayfield areas or areas close to my campus Callahan.

Good Morning my E family member please any body traveling to Australia newscast NSW cos my flight is on Thursday 14th May.EMIRATE so we can Connect.

Hello house , I was yesterday offered admission into Charles Sturt university for a PGD programme. The school not fully satisfied with my documents wrote this "
Dear Partner
Congratulations! I am pleased to advise that your application has been successful. Please find the CONDITIONAL OFFER document attached for your review and acceptance.
Kindly note the following:
-Student mentioned on Student Financial form that he will be partial self funded. In this case, provide the financial documents.
-The financial documents from sponsor are too blur, please provide clearer copies. Please note that funds need to stay in account for a minimum of 3 months in order to be accepted. Please also provide relationship proof between sponsor and student.
-Please provide a detailed SOP.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now, the agent made me understand that the school fees was 17,000 aud but while studying the admission offer, I discovered it was 26,000aud.
Secondly, I remb to have thicked the column that I will be partially sponsored even when the agent nd I know I was using an uncle's bank statement. I expected her to have gone through my forms to correct such errors. This would ve impeded the current demand for my own financial details as I ve already indicated my uncle as a sponsor.
3) The financial documents from sponsor re too blur so they need clearer copies.
4) The sponsor doesn't bear same last name as myself so they said they need proof of relationship.
My sponsor's account holds only 5 million which period of stay isn't upto 1 month even, so they re saying the funds needs to stay in the account for 3 months in order to be accepted.
This statement of account issue really gave me real trouble Cus I kept meeting Frnds whom I thought would ve atleast 5m as their bank balance but that wasn't the case as I ended up transfering 2million to the account of my sponsor just to see that he releases his statement of account to me.
With the school fees no longer 17,000 aud but now 26k aud, does it mean my bank balance will increase?
Will I ve to convince my sponsor to leave the Money in his account for another 3 months before applying for visa?
How best do I proof that I ve relationship tie with my sponsor?
Can I get any affordable univ with tuition fee within 17k aud- 20k aud for a PGD programme.
Pls advise me.
Regards

please try another school.i once apply to the school,but not satisfy with what i saw.most of their courses are online.Ask your agent to look for other schools for you or do it your self Google schools in Australia.good luck.

WestAfrican:
Its usually advisable you leave a week or two ealier to settle in before school commences. Sort ur accommodation, familiarize urself with public transport if u do b needing it.
Securing accommodation isn't easy except school is providing you one. Even with your money, agent will still knock you back.
You can come in a month (if you like) before school commences, immigration doesn't really look at that. If they ask just saw you want to settle in before resumption date. Worse scenario na to buy $50 two weeks health cover.

My fellow E-family, it's been a long journey and today, I am finally ready to share my Success with the House.
As you all know, I applied to Study Nursing at the Australian Catholic University Melbourne Campus but was denied Visa by Pretoria September last year. With the Courage of the great ppl of this house, I didn't give up, I garthered myself and re-applied to Metro College of Technology for an Advanced Diploma of Disability in Brisbane.
After paying my fees, gotten my CoEs and applied for Visa to Pretoria in early November, I called Pretoria towards the Xmas break in December and I was told that my CoEs were Cancelled and my application will now be accessed as an AL3 application.
I was so confused (I used a registered Migration Agent and an Australian Legal Practitioner), I contacted my Lawyer and informed her, she tried calling Pretoria to no avail and then tried contacting the School, no one is answering, we waited till after the Xmas and contacted them again over and over, no response, I almost shit on my pants, my Lawyer then contacted CRISCOS and found out that Metro College has been de-registered(Closed Down) by the Australian Government. Luckily for me, we were able to get in Torch with the CEO whom then refunded my Money to a Trust Account in Australia.
In this case, we have to amend my application which is still at Pretoria, I then applied for a related program at Queensland International Institute (QII) and made the fee payments and sent a fresh application through my Agent/Lawyer to Pretoria, Early January, Pretoria didn't send any response when we kept contacting them, they will keep telling you 3months.
On the 22nd of February, I got an email from my Lawyer with a Refusal Notification from Pretoria, using the Metro CoEs to assess my application after series of emails and phone calls informing them about my new CoEs and application amendments, they still used the old CoEs which they all knew has been cancelled to assess the application (Negligence). My Lawyer hit back and hit hard pointing out a "Jurisdictional Error" to the CO, the case was moved to the Senior Regional Director of Immigration in Africa, she then sent us an email that they have sent my application to their Legal Opinions Department in Pretoria to have a review, that once the Legal Department gives their Opinion, a fresh assessment will be made on my application.
I say "wetin" so to enter Australia again na fight? Where ppl are getting grants here and there my own case is different, to some extent I even thought I was cursed.
I decided to try another route, I actually needed this Nursing, I asked my Cousin about life as a Student in the USA, he told me and also told me that USA rejects Visa like Virus, that it's a no go area, my wife advice me not to be discouraged and that I should try, my friend in Darwin (Australia) kept advising about USA and the good opportunities there, I decided to try.
I applied for Admission in BSN(Nursing) and I also applied to the Embassy with my Family for a B1/B2 Visa, to my greatest surprise, we were all granted. I applied for the Admission early March and last week Thursday, I got an Offer to Study Nursing at University of Central Oklahoma, USA. While I was planning how to attend another Student Visa interview, I contacted my new School and told them I intend to Visit them for 2weeks and return to Nigeria to apply for an F1 Visa. The Office advised me that no need, that if I have a valid Visitors Visa and have not enrolled in a School or take an Employment or breach the Visa by over staying and so on, that I am qualified to change my Status to an F1 Visa.
https://www.uscis.gov/working-united-states/students-and-exchange-visitors/students-and-employment/special-instructions-b-1b-2-visitors-who-want-enroll-school
So, I took and deep breath and said "well, that's it" my Fate is in USA. Life is all about persistent and never to give up. My program starts in August and I wan just enter the town go enjoy small for 2 weeks and come back, make I clear all the wahala wey Pretoria gimme since last year.
I will like to advice everyone here, whether you are a Visa applicant or seeking to Study or those already Abroad: you all should never give up in your Quest, God's time is always the best and the greatest, no one or any situation should make you feel regret, stand up to your challenges and set your sails, trust me, you will achieve results.
I dedicate my Special thanks to Almighty God. And I appreciate the Gurus in this House; Laminaira, Mrlinobrawn, Oga Bellong, NNBB, Lawland, Scrollmein, Pmiller, Aussy4me, our BossLadymo1, MPop. And everyone that has contributed to the building of this great thread, I will never forget our main Boss in this House (Oga Justwise) for his good works in keeping this thread alive, may God grant you all your heart desires and strengthen you more.
I urge all of us in this great forum to keep up the good works and never abandon any1 who needs help, we should not run from the house whether we get what we came here for or not, life is a circle and every1 has his/her SET TIME.
God bless you and God bless Nairaland.
