If the school asked and u said no while it is actually a yes. You stil don't have to worry but if at the visa application, u said no while it is a yes. They wil surely find out and i fear it may be a problem. You just hav to open up especially at embassy level.

Thanks for the response, I am yet to get admission decision though but I intend filling yes for the visa application. I hope a YES in the Visa application won’t reduce my chances on getting the VISA.

I WISH I CAN HEAR FROM SOMEONE WHO HAS BEEN REFUSED a US F1 VISA AND LATER GOT THE AUSTRALIA STUDENT VISA TO SHARE HOW HE WENT THROUGH IT.

I hope I’m asking this the right way and right forum.
Gurus in the house, please I need your advice and my question goes thus -
I applied to an Australia school for an msc program early November through an agent!
While going through the comments on this page I realised Australia schools always ask if applicants have been refused Visa previously by any country ( I was refused the student F1 Visa in the US embassy this same year).
The question is, does previous Visa denial disqualify an intending Australia student’s school admission / visa ?

Please I need a quick response as the agent has already filled in NO which I’m not comfortable with because it’s better to lose just the application fee/admission than been refused visa n losing a lot of money.

Thanks for the anticipated response.

Please I want to ask if I can still apply for an expidited interview even if the initial date given is a month earlier than my resumption date ? Thanks �
