  • Check the deadlines.
    The visa process can take several weeks. Australia has fixed university intake periods, and missing a deadline could mean delaying your study plans by an entire semester. Start early and plan carefully.

  • Go on a paperwork treasure hunt.
    Here's what you’ll likely need: Valid passport, Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE) from an Australian institution, Completed visa application (online), Genuine Temporary Entrant (GTE) statement, Proof of financial capacity, Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC), Academic transcripts, English language proficiency test scores (IELTS, TOEFL, or PTE), Health examination and police clearance (if required).

  • Start saving up.

  • Boost your English skills.
    Even if you’ve already taken IELTS, TOEFL, or PTE – it’s always helpful to keep improving. Strong English skills help when writing your GTE statement, communicating during your course, and adjusting to life in Australia.
