Curtin University

After careful consideration and based on the new Migration Strategy, Curtin University has decided, as of today, not to issue any onshore COEs for students holding the following visa subclasses:


  • Covid Visa (subclass 408)

  • Temporary Graduate Visa (subclass 485)

  • Visitor Visa holder (subclass 600)


Students can still apply to the university,but to apply fora COE,the student must be offshoreand meet our compliance criteria.


I'm aware this change will affect your student cohorts, but we had to make changes in our processes to meet the Department of Home Affairs requirements.
