jennykadry: Will gladly answer, are you female?

1. 12k/yr meaning 6k per semester.
2. It depends on the person's interest.
3. It limits the opportunities re social life (you will make friends in regional areas but not as many as you would in a city). There is work everywhere in Australia, some regional areas even pay more for living and working there. Living in a regional area increases your chances of a PR. if you want to apply yourself, it increases your point and if you want a sponsorship, you get companies willing to sponsor you for your PR. It is very difficult in the city because they have too many of yous wanting that job and many amongst yous who are PR's and citizens, they would rather choose those ones than you cos it saves them time and money(litte) though. But in a regional area, because people would prefer to work in the city, they get short of workers and are willing to take on board anybody that shows interest.

Example: Someone studied Nursing in the city, applied for a job in different health care facilities, she got lots of job offers but when she told them she wanted sponsorship, they backed down. They told her that if ever they were going to sponsor, they would rather sponsor a nurse who is specialized in ICU, Theatre etc and not a fresh graduate. She applied for a job in a regional area, she got a telephone interview and told them she needed sponsorship AFTER they gave her the job and boommmmm, they sponsored her and immigration granted her her permanent residence after a week.

PS I am mobile, pardon my errors

jennykadry: Sorry I don't do emails. The only time I have done email was to read someone's admission letter and I also advised him that I won't reply. If you want to discuss anything with me re Australian Visa or Australia, please do it here. Thanks

jennykadry: Was right

jennykadry: @surecan
Read my posts on TAFE and my reply to you, I have Answered your question.

Concept

There is that one for engineers but there is also another visa that fresh school graduates here applied for, A family member who is a nurse and another one who studied HR applied for this visa, it's an 18 months temporary visa and a pathway to PR . I will get the exact visa number off them.

I think it's skilled graduate 485 visa. That was why I said as long as the person has studied for 2 years or more they can apply for it. Will confirm from those two re visa number.

zioni: NO u can't apply for visa under SVP with a Tafe course bt dere is an exception.. check dis web address and u wil get all d information u need to knw rgds SVP. http://www.immi.gov.au/students/_pdf/2011-university-sector-streamlined-processing.pdf
Am sure it wuld b helpful...let me knw if u av any oda concerns rgds SVP...

jennykadry: Year 12 is ss3 in Nigeria this is when WAEC results come Into the show. 10 and 11 do not apply to us.

Primary 1-6(6 years though I finished in primary 5)

Secondary school js1-ss3( 6 years)

All give and take is 12 years( year 12)

In Australia people CAn drop out of school in year 10,11. Equivalent to ss1 and 2. But if you drop out, you can't study a uni or TAFE course directly, there are some courses or exam you have to do to be eligible for TAFE professional courses. As per uni i dont know what they have to do to get in, me thinks more. A year 12 graduate is eligible for TAFE and uni .

jennykadry: There is a visa called graduate visa, you are eligible for that visa if you have studied for a minimum of 2 years. There are some points you have to meet to to get your PR visa, studying in a regional town increases your point. From the graduate visa, you can apply for PR. or if you finish your TAFE course and get a company willing to sponsor you, you don't need to apply for graduate visa, the company sponsors you for permanent residence direct

TAFE is a recognised way of study here that has to do with certifictes, diploma, advanced diploma etc . it is a step below uni. it is highly recognised here. Yes a graduate with 2:2 can apply for it

natruetalk: this poster is not our usual CONCEPT, abi i no fix my glasses wela

jennykadry: I highly doubt it's fully funded for international students. Permanent residents and citizens are fully funded but not international students.

jennykadry: I don't know anyone who's done PHD here but I could always go on the schools website and find out. What's your question?

jennykadry: I saw your MSG in the family section. I am happy to answer questions here IF I CAN. Shoot......

RedReact: One thing I hate about their system is the unavailability of scholarship. But it's like Phd is different at ANU from dt of others like UniSyd and the rest. ANU is more funded for research.
If one were to get PR, scholarship will be more open and tuition will be greatly slashed.

RedReact: Research is good in Australia. You can try out Australian National University or check through the list of their schools online.
