Australia Visa

Hi Pawan,
An overall band of 5.5 is quite low. You should consider retaking the IELTS. You can also complete a bridge course in English, but you should contact the universities first as they will guide you as per your profile. You must always meet the admission requirements for visa purposes. So, you should prepare accordingly.

If you are talking about student visa, you must first get the admission offer from a university. In addition to IELTS scores, you must check the academic requirements. As far as your IELTS is concerned, it is quite low. Can you mention your academic details and what you want to study, etc.?

Hi Myra,
It is better if you apply for a student visa, gain work experience through the post study work permit scheme and then apply for a PR. Look for a two year MS course for better PR prospects. However, please do note that no course can guarantee you a PR. You must be qualified and meet the skill shortages of the country at that moment. The decision is finally yours. If you manage to get a job directly without a student visa you are lucky.

Dear Akhil,
I am not clear about your question if it is the required documents then you can check on the website of DIAC, alternatively you can use the services of a good qualified overseas education consultant available in the city you live in. They do not charge any processing or consultation fees for Australia if you apply through them. This will make it easier for you as they will handle the entire visa process for you.

For visa, your marks are not considered. Your motive of visit and aim plays the important role.

Dear Siddarth,
If you intend to pursue your higher education in the same field, you need to check out with the university chosen by you as to which level they can admit you after they check the subjects taken by you in your Diploma. You also need to score good marks in IELTS exam.

No, presently the rules in Australia have become strict. They don't even accept 1 year gap.

Hi Ishleen,
You can apply for a student visa after you have been accepted or admitted by an university of college. Decide what you want to study and check for admission requirements, prepare and apply accordingly.

You can take guidance from a licensed immigration advisor.
