Eligibility Requirements For Australia Study Visa

To be eligible for a study visa to Australia, you must meet the following requirements:

  • Enrolled in a course of study: You must be enrolled in a course of study at an Australian institution, which must be registered with the Australian government and have a valid Commonwealth Register of Institutions and Courses for Overseas Students (CRICOS) code.
  • Financial capacity: You must demonstrate that you have sufficient funds to cover your tuition fees, living expenses, and travel costs for the duration of your stay in Australia. The amount of funds you need will depend on your individual circumstances and the length of your course.
  • English language proficiency: You must demonstrate that you have the required level of English language proficiency for your chosen course of study. The English language proficiency requirements will vary depending on the course and institution you have chosen.
  • Health and character requirements: You must meet the health and character requirements set by the Australian government. This may involve undergoing a medical examination and obtaining a police clearance certificate.
  • Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC): You must obtain OSHC, which is a type of health insurance that covers the cost of medical treatment while you are in Australia. You will need to purchase OSHC for the entire duration of your stay in Australia.
  • Genuine Temporary Entrant (GTE): You must demonstrate that you are a genuine temporary entrant, which means that you intend to come to Australia for the sole purpose of studying and that you intend to return to your home country once your studies are complete.
  • Meet any additional requirements: Depending on your individual circumstances, you may need to meet additional requirements, such as obtaining a skills assessment or providing evidence of work experience.

 

It is important to note that meeting these requirements does not guarantee that your visa application will be approved. The Australian government will assess your application on a case-by-case basis and may take into account factors such as your immigration history and the political and economic situation in your home country.
