Follow the process below, prepare materials in order, and track the progress of each stage.

  1. 1

    Prepare Materials (School Application)

    • Organize academic and language materials based on the list of target courses and schools.
    • If the requirements are not yet met, you can apply for a language pathway program/packaged course (ELICOS/internal test) first.
    • Name the electronic versions of documents uniformly (in English) for easy reuse in subsequent visa applications.
  2. 2

    Briefing on School-Arranged Interview (if applicable)

    • Submit application materials, including transcripts, passport, and English proficiency proof, to the State Department of Education.
    • School review: The Department of Education recommends schools based on the student's situation, and the school arranges an interview after its review.
    • Interview notification: An email will specify the interview time, method (usually Zoom or Teams), and preparation details.
    • Interview content: A conversation in English including self-introduction, interests, academic situation, future plans, and a comprehensive assessment of learning habits, adaptability, reasons for coming to Australia, etc. The duration is approximately 15-30 minutes.
  3. 3

    Submit School Application

    • Submit the application through the school's official website or an agent's portal and pay the application fee (if any).
    • Submit supplementary documents as required and track the admission progress (Conditional/Unconditional Offer).
    • After meeting the conditions, pay the tuition deposit and complete the acceptance procedure (Accept Offer).
  4. 4

    Obtain CoE and Arrange OSHC

    • The school issues the CoE (Confirmation of Enrolment).
    • Purchase/confirm OSHC to cover the entire visa period (including dependents, if any).
  5. 5

    Visa Document Preparation (Subclass 500)

    • Organize documents for finances, GTE, English proficiency, and medical examination, ensuring consistency with the chosen course.
    • Check the letterheads, dates, translation formats, and certification requirements of visa documents.

The school's visa assessment level determines the risk level for students applying for a visa and is a significant reference.

For example, if a school's visa assessment level is 2, the applicant will face more restrictions and be required to provide more written evidence, such as proof of language proficiency and financial capacity.
