Tykoone:
Good day to you all. Its really an honour to be here. I just recently moved to tasmania, I will be studying at Utas(mechanical engineering). Heard engineering could be really tough out here, also I leveraged on this course because my previous studies in Nigeria was engineering related(OND welding and fabrication engineering).

But I do not wish to continue in this path. I was hoping to switch to information technology but I hear it's very competitive for obtaining PR. My friend I'm staying with suggests nursing but I had a 6.0 in writing and 6.5 in listening module of ielts but 7 overall. So I'll have to sit for ielts, if I'm choosing to pursue nursing.


I'm confused on what to do. I wish to switch courses to something easier, that would enable obtain a PR faster.

I won't recommend schools in Perth is you have to work, getting a job in Perth is difficult as a student. The rest are fine so long tuition fee is less than 40k per annum .

Hello everyone,
Just want to use this medium to seek for help as I might be lucky to find one here. My sister has been able to process her admission in Australia. She has paid every fee necessary, gotten the visa and school is to resume this Monday. She booked her flight with an agent hoping she could get a good bargain through a cheap flight only for her money to be refunded yesterday that it won't be enough to get a flight for the amount she has. She has only a sum of #1.5m with her left. We have done our best to raise money for her tuition fees and all other fees. School resumes on Monday and I felt I should drop this here if anyone can help with an advise or anything worthwhile. Flight we are getting so far is over #2.7m and we really need an assistance from anyone out there. Please anybody who can help will be refunded as well. Please we really need this. Thank you all

I thought as much. You have any idea in naira what my budget should be. Estimated ?
Do you suggest I opt to pay the visa fee myself ?

akiols03:



I also, I am trying to apply to study Masters in Accounting in Australia and contacted a school and the representative told me I will be needing IELTS or PTE for the Visa Application from Nigeria and I am confused based. This link also shows https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/getting-a-visa/visa-listing/student-500#Eligibility that we are not exempted. Is this new or we do not need this for Visa Application. I am really confused.

Chibusparks06:

For visa application

Wonderboy1:

1. Coe takes approximately 7 working days.

2. You don't need a soa for visa application. But a balance of about 13m won't be bad.

3. You can process the visa yourself but it is better to go through an agent.

4. Like I said, you don't need soa for visa. But you can set aside a balance of 13m incase they request for soa.

5. Yes you can. But soa is not needed.

Thanks

Lushbaby:
Please has anybody use tayrex to send money to Nigeria before. Are they legit and how many hours do they take to deliver

gracespeakss:
Great everyone is doing here.
A few questions to ask.
I just got two scholarship for my PhD (4 years) but was asked to pay for the oshc which is approximately AUD 21,000 (family options for 57 months), to medibank.

This is a lot of money, what can be adviced?
Is it compulsory to pay it all or 2 years can be paid, if yes will it be acceptable?
and if not what can be done?

I will appreciate your candid response.

Thanks

Congratulations to all who got their visa granted, many more wins.

4everEdward:
Which app or website can I sell my Aud and get naira thanks someone help

Naijabad:


Suppose he elects to transfer the money into paying another student's fees in Aussie, won't it be allowed?

I was about asking him to pay someone's fees in Aussie and we can agree on the Naira equivalent.

OAOA:


What if one paid with an account from the US or UK?

gsalvatore:
Please I need advice..
I applied for a refund of tuition and gave them an Australian bank account to send the tuition so I can reapply for another school with it.

The school is telling me now that they can't payback the tuition to any Australian acc, that I will have to provide an account that is in the country I'm applying from, which is Nigeria.

I don't want the tuition to be sent back because the will use CBN rates to send it which will obviously affect the value.

Has anyone been in this situation? Please experienced folks should help me out here..

Danieldara011:
I just spoke with them .the health quote will be adjusted.

Will pay for my family when the time comes, for now I will prefer it's for myself alone .

Sorry if I may ask how did you pay tuition deposit because it seems there's no option to use form A.
They only accept card payments and flywire

Danieldara011:
So finally uni of Newcastle gave me unconditional offer today.

But there's a mistake on the offer or maybe it's my thought.

The oversea student health cover charge is $8400 and family was written beside it .

Although I am married (family of 3) I don't intend to apply for visa with my family.

The plan is to bring them later .

I feel the health cover charge is a mistake it should be single not family .

Please I need your input guys because I am thinking of calling the school to lodge a complain

Zykore:
Good evening everyone.

I got a fully funded scholarship for PhD from the University of Queensland.
I received my CoE since Oct 18th 2022 for a commencement date of April 1st 2023.

The school also provided OSHC starting March 1st 2023.

My agent has said that I cannot lodge a visa application until 3months to the commencement date.

Is this true?
Do i have to wait till January 2023 to apply for student visa?

I'm ready to lodge my application this December. If I go ahead and apply 4 months to my commencement date, would there be an issue?

aeeshcrystal:
Good morning all. I have been following this thread for a while, tried to go back in time to read some helpful posts, yet, I have not been able to find the answers....

I have been admitted to University of New south Wales for February start. I have to pay about $7700 Aud for my family's health insurance. Can someone guide me on how to go about it? Cos black market rate alone is showing me that this costs millions of naira. Is there an alternative to this OSHC. Probably purchasing a health insurance in Nigeria that may cover us over there. Secondly, is there anyone with AUD dollars willing to help. I have posted my interest on a post yesterday and even dm'ed someone last week from this thread but it seems they are not really keen to help anyone (non responsive). I will also like to know if there's any other insurance that is cheaper than medibank. One Allianz is also showing me a very high rate. Sadly. Please help!

In addition, what are the advantages of studying in Australia, do Nigerians get employed without any form of discrimination? My course is international relations.

Thank you and God bless you as you attempt to assist me with helpful responses. �

donforeign:
I need your assistance on something.part of the requirement for me to join my wife in Australia is health insurance that covers our names that is according to the agent in Australia. Which of the insurance company can I use in Nigeria or must it be an international health insurance? Someone said I can use mutualng insurance, I really don't know about them. D one my wife used was alianz or so.. I will sincerely appreciate your support. Thanks

Today's rate will be Aus$1 - 471.

Where are you presently?

4everEdward:
Nobody wants to answer me or is their any thread specifically for my question.

Please I am currently in Russia, and my partner who is Australian citizen wants to bring me up there (Melbourne) specifically

1. She got me a job and full time permanent job and the organisation is willing to sponsor and send me support documents to bring me up then we get married

2. In my own sense I want her to come to Nigeria so I can return back and we get married and I will apply for marriage visa

Please guys what do you think. I need someone to advice me on what to do.

Because I am thinking if I have to go through the work embassy might deny me with a reason that a citizen in Australia can do that job they want to spend money and bring me up.

But the obviously the company said the vacant have been empty for a long time now.

Gurus in the house pls help
