What would you like to know about Aus?
It's a beautiful country with lots of opportunities around you. You just have to identify them and cease those opportunities.

Sometimes it can be challenging for new ones but as time ticks bye, you find you feet, things starts to come together.

I will elaborate on specific inquiries.

Anything and everything you can possibly tell us about life in Aussie

My first post(questions) here can serve as starting points

I think it will be best for you if you engage The services of an education agency.
They will guide you through the process including securing the admission for you at a cost.
I used one and now am waiting for my visa grant now but I think they help a lot.
I can link you to them if you wish.

Hello lovelies, please a sister needs an urgent response. I want to know if anyone here has seen a study visa with a '' NO FURTHER VISA'' Condition on it? Is true that study visa will be stamped 8503 condition? I have interest in going for my Master but I am scared cus of ones future plan of going for a PR after graduation.

I have not seen neither heard of that. Go through the legit route and use legit documents and you will be fine.

Others in the house can comment though.

Hello house,

Wishing you all the best with your applications!

I submitted my student visa application on the 23rd of May and front-loaded my sponsor's SOA with a balance of about 13.37m naira, I have also paid the required deposit of 8150AUD to Deakin for the CoE with my full tuition for one year being 32600 AUD. When I did all of my calculations, the amount that is needed in my sponsor's account was just under 12m naira. However, I am worried if the 13.37m will be enough considering I saw a case on this thread of someone getting denied because of the funds for the subsequent year of studies.

My sponsor in question has her company (she is the majority shareholder and sole signatory) fixed deposit account with about 32m naira. The fixed deposit has a maturity date of 19th of December 2019. I am now thinking that it might be worth attaching the fixed deposit slip and a letter showing she is the sole signatory to the account to the application on Monday. What do you guys think?

Thanks a lot for helping me with this, you know the usual paranoia during the wait lol it is getting to me!

Going to Deakin too, July intake.... That tuition fee can give high bp

Check reviews from people, look at their programs to see which of them suits you most and a host of other things like job placements and co.

P.S check for their rankings, Australia and world wise.
