Application
Provider deadlines require students to submit all
application materials to AU Abroad by March 15 (Fall
and full-year programs; please note that this is two
weeks prior to our Enclave application deadline) and
October 15 (Spring programs). In addition to the application
materials listed on our Apply
page, students are required to submit the following
materials for AustraLearn's application:
Visa
Upon acceptance, AustraLearn will provide students
with a checklist for the Australian visa application.
This will take you through step by step instructions
to apply for the visa on-line.
Students from a number of countries which presently
include the United States of America, Norway and Sweden
are often able to avoid in-person visa applications
and be granted a student visa over the internet to
study in Australia for up to 12 months. These applicants
must be over 18 years of age and applying for visa
subclass 573 (Higher Education Sector).
Students are responsible for contacting the nearest
Australian diplomatic office as soon as possible after
receiving their offer to find out which additional
documents are needed to obtain a student visa. Medical
checks and X-rays are normally required. It is imperative
to allow ample time for the visa application process.
For more information please visit the Australian
government's visa website.
