Only provide when asked. If you read this thread thoroughly there are folks that got visas with their spouse to AL1 schools without statement.

West Africa n gurus here, pls is it advisable to call or send an email to know d status of my applicoation?
Yes you can even call them if it is taking too long.

I advise people to only contact embassies if resumption is very close and nothing from them.

The people you are referring to, was it pre or post biometric era? the introduction of biometrics by most countries(last 6-7 yearish) makes it easier (literally the click of a button) to detect migration fraud, so if Canada has your bio-metrics and you refused to declare that you had been refused by Canada, supposing DIBP decides to check randomly, what happens?
In my opinion, it pays to be truthful. Moreover,the thing most of us forget is that when we indulge in such shady practices, we spoil it for others,how? because this could attract unnecessary scrutiny for applications from Nigeria.
Check what randomly ?

I am 100% certain.

How will they check ?

They will send your biometrics to where ?

Deportees from UK and other European countries are getting visas to Australia, Canada and USA.

I am not supporting people being fraudulent or whatever but one embassy won't know you have been refused by the other unless you have their stamp or you inform them.

For the record, the only central information for migration purpose is the UN Asylum and refugee database.

Hello Gurus in the house,

It's 490 pages here and I have been scanning through some pages though randomly.

I am interested in running a masters program in Australia but I would need all the necessary info I can get. Presently, I am have a first degree in Environmental Technology.

MOST OF YOUR QUESTIONS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED MANY TIMES ON THIS THREAD

Pls anyone can attend to any of the following enquiries:

1. Is there any site that could serve as a reservoir as regards masters studies in Austarlia (The same way we have msinus.com for the USA)

there are many schools in three USA compared to other countries. So list of universities in Australia on Google should give all the schools you can find in Australia

2. What's the step by step process for gaining admission in an Austarlian University as a first degree holder in Nigeria?

Most times schools will direct you to an agent to handle the application. But you can go through the website of the schools yourself for the steps.

3. Do Austarlian Universities offer some form of Assistantship (Teaching/ Graduate/ Research) or full or partial tuition waiver?

NO. They like money well well, just like the UK. But few schools might offer your small percentage off your tuition fee to encourage you accept their offer.

4. What's the prospects of getting a job there like after a Masters program?

Prospects are good.


5. What's the range of the financial implication involved in running a masters studies in Austaralia using an above average school as a case study?

The tuition fee in Australia is very high and minimum will be around 25,000 AUD for masters and you will be required to pay half after you have been accepted.

Thank you.

@santity it's Msc I got the offer for, and it's a two year course, can I get a work permit informm of PR after my study and how is the per time work oppurtunity @Macquarine uni
I don't really know about that uni, maybe folks here already studying there can provide more info for all to learn more.

Surely, you have options for PR, there are accountants and auditors on the sol and csol list. I also think new south Wales still have these occupations on their list too.

Though there is high possibilities that these occupations will be remove soon due to the low ceiling and competitions.

SANTITY AND CO, kindly respond to this!!!
I am not really familiar with the school but the best you can always get on scholarship as a new student is always a small percentage off. Australian schools too like money.

It is better you apply to one more school in case the admission doesn't work out with unsw

Any course that is health related is very good.

They might soon transfer you an agent.

If it is bachelor's degree, you have lots of options on the sol list but the issue is whether the options will still be available in three years time when you complete your program.

If it is masters degree, If you already work experiences and you can submit assessment and start preparations before you complete your program.

One last question please,

santity100: after the payment of half tuition fee, do I still have to present bank statement at the embassy?
It depends on the university that you select.

If you are studying at a university on AL1 status, so you won't require sponsor document for visa.

But these universities are more expensive and they might require sponsor documents like bank statement before they give you the document (COE) you need to apply for visa

Search google to get the schools "Australia university AL1 status"

Ok thanks so much. That looks fine by me. Meanwhile I have a long way to go. I haven't any school in mind, and haven't written English test either.
You can start searching for the universities that is within your budget.

Some might waive English but it is better you write PTE immediately in order to make admission easier and faster.

Thank you.

Is part payment allowed? Or must everything paid in full? Or is there an alternative program that I can use as a stepping stone?
Half of the tuition is normally required after acceptance but before visa applications.

Good morning guys. I have been denied canadian study visa twice and i just offer of admission from Flinders uni.. can i leave out that i have been denied for canada or include in my genuine student declaration form..
They can't know that you have been refused if you don't tell them. I know people will contest this but I have many experiences on visa applications. There are loads of people deported from London that got USA visas etc.

As you have been denied by another country, it will surely limit your chances.you can include it and put all the evidences from canada embassy. Meanwhile your application will be thoroughly scrutinised so I will advise you provide them all your supporting documents a very good sop.

It depends on the case officer, he or she might be impressed that you opened up or he or she might increase scepticism towards to your application.

Pray.

Please gurus in the house

A friend of mine wants to study in Oz (PhD) , she has a first class in both her first (Bsc) and second degree (msc) , but the problem is the tuition. Please how can she get a full scholarship for PhD social works or PhD communication
Full scholarships is always tough for new students but after first semester, there are lots of scholarships options depending on the student academic performance.

As she has an excellent academic background, she can try her luck by checking the universities directly but best most students get is partial scholarships.

As this is PHD level, there are more scholarships available depending on your area of research.

Maybe the student can check Australia awards website too for more options.

Is it not better that you quickly go to international office or counsellor in your school so that they can tell you the options before it becomes too late ?

$8-10k (AUD) is perfect for me
I can still do $5k tuition deposit

Bros, I go appreciate gan if you can come to my rescue. Thank u
RMIT's deposit that is required is around 8k aud. But the total tuition is around 30k aud per year.

Well if you can be accepted and pay the 8k aud but the issue is how to pay the balance because it will be bumber to bumber when you reach oz and they might cancel your visa and deport you if you delay too much.

But I believe you should still get one of this TAFEs if you can choose a course that is closely related to your present educational background and experience.

*My age already gave me 30 points

*Nomination by an by state or territory government or by an eligible family member (in this case my uncles Australian wife) dont know if it counts ... (or maybe they'd get a company to invite me) - 10 points

*Possible 10 marks from ilts


what do you think pls??
Find the occupation related and check the requirements of the assessing authority.

Most qualifications from Nigeria are classified as associate degree, if a bachelor's degree is required in your selected occupation, it might be a bottleneck of your ba theatre art is classified as associate degree during assessment.

You can go through this forum, assessing authority and border.gov website for comprehensive information.
