Visa and Conditions

Apply for a student visa

After you have successfully completed the application and enrolment process, you will be issued with an electronic Confirmation of Enrolment (eCoE). Once you have this, you can apply to the Department of Home Affairs for a student visa. You may choose to use a Registered Migration Agent or may choose to complete it yourself.

Once you have received your visa, you must abide by its conditions. If you do not, you can be sent to your home country and won’t be able to complete your course. Conditions include (but are not limited to):

Satisfy attendance and/or course progress requirements and maintain a valid enrolment for your course.
Only work if you have been given permission to do so as part of your visa grant (and not work more than the stipulated number of hours).
Maintain approved Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) while in Australia.
While in Australia and studying, notify your training provider of your current Australian address, contact details (i.e. phone and email) and emergency contact details within 7 days of changes.
Complete the course within the duration specified in the eCoE you received.
Completing at least 6 months of your principle course of study with the principal education provider unless you are being released from the education provider to attend another institution.

The principal course is the main course of study to be undertaken by you where the student visa has been issued for multiple courses, and is usually the final course of study.
