Study in Australia : Step-by-step guide. |
| |
| Step 1: Course and institution selection |
Your course of study and choice of institution will play a vitally important role in your future and we will provide you with considered advice based not only on our wide experience, but also on your own personal circumstances and objectives.
Your selection of course of study should be determined by the following factors:
- Your past academic and professional records
- Your financial circumstances
- Your career and/or academic goals
- Your English language ability
- Your future migration interest
If you are eligible for admission to an Australian University or College, we will help you select the course and university that can make your study plan a reality.
If you require further academic qualifications for admission to an Australian University educational institution, we will recommend a suitable diploma course offered by a Certified College. By successfully completing this diploma, you can not only win university admission, but also may earn credits that count towards your university degree.
Oli and Associates officially represent leading Australian universities and colleges and can advise you on a full range of degrees and professional qualifications - from a Doctor's, Master's or Bachelor's degree to diplomas and professional qualifications in prestige industries such as accounting computing or travel and tourism. Institutions represented by Oli & Associates (list of colleges and universities) (link of colleges & universities list) are highly regarded and maintains an excellent reputation in Australia.
Once you have decided on your course of study and institution, Oli & Associates will advise you about the following:
- English language requirement for the proposed course of study and student visa
- Financial requirements to be met in order to obtain a student visa
- Estimated expenses associated with living and studying in Australia for the duration of your chosen course
- Your right to work and earn money in Australia
- Health and character requirements needed for a student visa
- List of the documents required for admission into your course of study & for an Australian student visa
|
| Step 2: Apply for admission, obtain an Offer Letter. |
As soon as we receive the required documents from you and have checked your eligibility, Oli & Associates can immediately lodge your application for the proposed institution and intended course of study.
The educational institutions we officially represent will generally accept your application provided that your eligibility for the course of study and your ability to meet the institution's stated admission requirements have been verified by Oli & Associates.
Initially the institution will issue you with an Offer Letter, which is essential in order to apply for a student visa.
If you have not passed the IELTS, the Offer Letter will be conditional on you satisfying their English language requirements.
|
| Step 3: Apply for a Student Visa |
Once we have received all required documents, Oli & Associates will prepare and lodge your application for a student visa.
To maximize your chance of receiving a visa, it is essential that all necessary documentation and supporting statements are included. In fact, the lack of these details is the main reason why students fail in their dream to study in Australia.
Oli & Associates, Australia is a licensed Migration Agent specializing in student visas, and we know from past experience that if you meet the requirements, we WILL get you your visa.
|
| Step 4: Payment of tuition fee and medical examination |
If you meet all requirements for a student visa, you will qualify for a pre visa, and your Visa Officer will request electronic confirmation of enrolment (COE), and evidence of payment of Student Health Cover (OSHC). It is possible that the Visa Officer may request other documentation. You will also need to undergo a medical examination.
Oli & Associates will forward your payment to the institution and obtain the COE and OSHC documents and submit these documents to your Visa Officer together with your passport.
Your medical report will be forwarded directly by the examining doctor, who must be a panel doctor acceptable to the Australian Government.
As long as your documentation is correct and you pass the medical, your student visa is usually only a formality.

| Step 5: Pre-departure briefing and post-arrival orientation |
It is important for the success of your studies that you make a smooth transition from Nepal to Australia, especially if you have never lived or studied abroad before.
Oli & Associates will provide a travel briefing in Nepal, so that you can prepared for your journey to Australia.
Most importantly, soon after arriving in Sydney, Oli & Associates, Australia provides an orientation which covers the following areas:
