Indian students need to pay an initial enrollment deposit worth the first semester's tuition fees to confirm admission to Deakin Uni Australia. Students can pay the same using the Deakin StudyLink Connect portal.

After paying the deposit, the university will share the Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE) document. This is important to obtain the Australia student visa.

Yes it is possible to get a PR in Australia after 3 years. You must prove that you have lived and worked in the regional area for 3 years on a "Skilled Work Regional Visa (Provisional) - Subclass - 491". Working and living on this visa for 3 years leads you to getting a "Skilled Regional Visa - Subclass 191" which is the Permanent Residence Permit in Australia. However, direct pathways like the Skilled Independent Visa (189) or Skilled Nominated Visa (190) can sometimes grant PR faster - depending on occupation demand and points

Yes, students can change their major at Uni Queensland. To do that they can contact their academic department via email or phone. The academic advisor would then provide detailed information on how one can change their major at Queensland Uni Australia.

Choice of a better country to study abroad depends on the personal preferences of international students. One must opt to study in the UK if they have a knack for a fast-paced life, and want to experience studying at a prestigious global university and shorter master's courses. However, on the other side, Australia has a more relaxed lifestyle, several outdoor destinations and offers easier-to-stay options after graduation.

The Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) is a healthcare plan in Australia. It is mandatory for Indian students to get an OSHC before applying for Australia student visa. The plan covers doctor visits, hospital stays, ambulance services, and some medicine expenses.

It does not cover dental, optical, or physio services. Allianz, Bupa, and Medibank are some popular providers that offer OSHC. Students can also request universities in Australia to help them get one.
