STUDY IN AUSTRALIA
Australia
provides one of the best academic environments to the student. With its
scenic views and beautiful landscapes, it is one of the most popular
destinations for students to study abroad. Australia’s secondary and
tertiary education system consists of high schools, senior colleges,
vocational institutes and universities. These institutions offer summer
study abroad programs in their curriculum for the students who wish to
study abroad. The academic year is a little different from the normal year
of other countries because Australia is situated in the southern
hemisphere. For universities with a semester system, first semester starts
in mid- February and ends in late June; second semester starts in mid-
July and ends in late November.
The student can apply for a student visa only after being accepted by the
educational provider. The international student has to first produce the
formal proof of offer or enrolment. The individual can apply for a student
visa once he receives either a letter of offer or a Confirmation of
Enrolment (CoE). However, if only a letter of offer is submitted, the
student visa cannot be granted until the CoE has been issued. The student
will need the student visa for the whole duration of the study program in
the country. One can be granted a student visa only if the student wishes
to undertake a registered course or a part of a registered course on a
full time basis.
