I was hoping that one day I would give my testimony on this thread. I got my 5-year visa grant yesterday for a PhD in Medicine at the University of New South Wales. Applied Feb 3, 2021 and it has been 3+ interesting months. I did it all by myself because of the experiences shared on this thread - I started from the very beginning and read every page. This is me saying thank you to everyone that shared their stories.

Now we wait for the borders to open.

@Kess2020.. since it's a nursing program and it was clearly stated that it can't be taken online, maybe you'll be granted an exemption coz some students that got in this year were given exemptions because they're medical students. Regarding getting into Australia this year, I personally doubt it, even the Astra Zeneca they're using can cause blood clots which has led New South Wales to suspend it's use recently. We're all in limbo with no end in sight but you have a better chance than a lot of us.

New Zealand lifted all restrictions because they are now Covid-19 Free country, they have eliminated all cases of the virus so no more reason for restrictions, but for Australia the case is different they still have active cases within the country, Also the Govt just announced that they won't be reducing any restriction until 2weeks time due to the Black Lives Matter Protest that saw almost 70k people come out to protest

Good day every one, I felt I should comment and also say a big thank you, to all the person's that have taken their time to post their experiences/ those that answered questions and the person that started these thread ... God bless you all �❣️

The covid 19 thingie has really opened my eye to why I should run four-forty from this country( Naija) cos of the way our leaders and citizens are handling the pandemic hence I started extensive research on the net, looking at which country I could go for masters and the prospect of post study work visa and I finally made up my mind to work towards Australia as it is easier to get admission and student visa compared to Canada .

In my research and everything, I ended on a website which was really helpful so I felt I should share with people looking forward to go the school route. Would greatly help in terms of school and course search.
The site is *overseasstudentaustralia dot com*

YouTube also is your friend, it gave me good insight about Australia and the schooling environment.

I am still here for now, planning towards year 2022 February cos I have a good business here so I needed the time to rap up things and save money, also planning on going along with my niece, cos I promise her mom to take care of her .

The top place on my mind for now is Perth.

The course am looking at is either masters of social work
Or masters of nursing practice
and for my niece she said she wanted something in business so she would start with tafe first. ....would decide which before application time next year ...

Cheers and stay safe ��

Of recent, your school must send your electronic copy of your admission letter to your preferred centre. Lagos embassy dont actually check their email, tell your school to forward it to Abuja and go their to do your interview

Note, you must continue to call embassy to know if your school already sent your admission notice to them or not

I hope this help!!!

Frayz, I have sent you a message

Hello Kess, please I tried to pm you, kindly accept . I plan to apply for bachelor of nursing (graduate entry) and I need help with SOP.
Which of the schools did you eventually choose? USC seems cheaper than that of Sydney.
I have some questions to though. Can you reach me through ursulakachiogwu@gmail.com or accept or reply my pm. Thank you

Since your school waived it then you can't say for sure what score they would need.
Sure you'll write another IELTS for professional accreditation but your main concern should be actually getting a visa.
I only just took the ielts to boost my chances of a visa.
My advise is, it won't hurt to get a higher score. If you can afford the exam again then take it. About PTE, I believe its accepted too. Just get a score that will boost your chances. You can check the immigration site for a list of acceptable english exams.
P.S write a convincing sop for why you are choosing not to further in pharmacology. It's the same field but still write something convincing.

What uni btw?

I'm ready

Hello Guys, my grant just came in today!!!!
Thanks to everyone who has contributed on this thread one way or the other on this thread. It has helped immensely.
My time line:
Submitted application-31st July 2019
Conditional offer- 15th July 2019
CoE- 24th November 2019
Biometrics- 27th December 2019
Submitted Visa Application- 25th January 2020
IELTS Score- 7.0 (I had a minimum band score of 7.0 so my average was 7.0). I got a waiver from the school so I didn't need IELTS for school admission. My agent advised I write one for visa so I did.
School- Flinders University
Sponsor's account: My maternal uncle. Submitted 2 bank statements. One had 18m and the other was a fixed deposit account that matures every 30days. It had 13m.
Course- Social work (masters)
BSc- Microbiology

Submitted my credentials, letter from sponsor, proof of relationship to sponsor (uncle & Mum's NPC) and sponsor's account statement. I didn't submit payslips or my account statement sha.
Challenges faced: I already had an MSc in Microbiology so applying for a second masters was what I had to prove. Plus, with Social Work being a high risk course I had to write a convincing SOP. (I can share that with anyone interested cos mehn this took me like a month to write). My work experience was also a bonus cos I work as a care assistant.
Sometime in December the bank statement I used for the school admission could no longer be used cos he had to move the funds to another bank for investment reasons. He had to submit another letter to this effect. He also had to back it up with the fixed deposit account.
School resumes on Monday so if anyone could help with flight and accommodation links, I'd be most grateful.

Thank God!!!!!!!

I did the transfer stuffs too cos my first degree was in psychology and I have my I-20 already, so from experience I can tell you , you have to get your transcripts evaluated except the school waived it for you which am not sure they will but you can always send a mail to them to confirm

Princekenuk:
Please I need more schools that are waiving test requirements as a result of covid-19?

Wunaarroon69:
lol but I don’t think it has anything to do with money. People with less amount get approvals too.Just have to package your application well. Avoid using agents that will wash your head with old success stories and still charge up 380k just to fill application for you. Most importantly pray

Hello Eveyone,

I have been getting emails about which documents I submitted. I have decided to just put it here for the general public.

Documents submitted;

- School Offer letter for September from University of Windsor for Masters program (2 years). I think there’s a luck with this university. People usually get their study permits granted when they’ve applied to this university.

- Proof of Tuition Payment ( I paid in full)

- Proof of Accommodation ( I already rented a two bedroom flat and got a contract sent to me)

- Undergraduate Transcripts & degree certificate

- CV (I wrote a standard one)

- Self Sponsored so I submitted my bank statements with about 40m. Note that there was no lodgement of funds.

- My landed property documents

- Statement of purpose/LOE (Outsourced)

- Other Supporting documents like business registration certificate, award certificates,etc

- Of course passport, birth certificate and other mandatory documents.

- Previous Issued Visas

I did not use any agent for the second application

Let me know if you have any questions
I will answer when I can

If I remember anything else, I will input

You lodge EOI when you have a positive assessment and English result ready.
Please check well to ensure your roles are Pharmacy technician related and not a Pharmacist role before paying money to Vetassess.
