Assalamualaikum wbt
Hey fellas, a few days coming will be very meaningful and
quite hectic because I’m preparing and starting to pack up my goods as I will
further my study in Australia, specifically in University of Queensland.
So I’m going to share the processes of enquiring for Visa,
accepting offer letter and so on.
The first thing that you should wait is offer letter. The
offer letter will be in tour hand depends on the university, certain
universities are very quick on sending those letters. The letters will be sent
probably in January. The offer letter is
not going to be in your mailbox in front of your house but it would be sent via
email, so check your email frequent after done with your application.
In the offer letter usually will guide you the ways to
accept the offer, so here it is, accept your offer asap. Then, the sponsor will able to send you financial statement
that would state that you are under their sponsor and every detail about your
finance in Australia.
After a few days, you should receive certificate of
enrolment (CoE) from particular university. Every CoE would have its own serial
number and that serial number would be important for your visa application
soon.
The next step is applying visa. Australia visa application
is easier compare to New Zealand’s because the applicant can do it online. The
website for visa application is
www.immi.gov.aus
(if I’m not mistaken). The student visa is under subclass 573 or you can search
higher education student visa. One important thing, you can’t apply visa unless
you have registered with the website, so do register in the website. Once
you’ve reached all the blank forms, fill with the correct informations and do
recheck for any corrections. After finish filling the forms, it is time for
payment. Australia visa would cost 535AUD, and it has several ways to pay like
credit card and debit card. However my friend insists that credit card would be
better.
