Student visa requirements in Australia explained: Genuine Student, CoE, OSHC and funds. A Brisbane education consultant covers eligibility, work rights and more.
To meet the student visa (subclass 500) requirements in Australia, you generally need five things: a Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE) in a registered full-time course, evidence you meet the Genuine Student requirement, Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) for your whole stay, enough funds to cover tuition, living costs and travel, and English at the level your course demands. On top of that, you must meet health and character requirements and hold your cover before the visa is granted. The student visa lets you study full-time, work a capped number of hours, and bring eligible family members in many cases. Miss any one of the core requirements and the application is at risk. Here’s what each requirement really means and how to satisfy it.
This guide is general information to help you get your bearings. Migration and citizenship rules — and especially fees and processing times — change often, so the smartest next step is a quick, honest read on your own situation. Our registered migration agent and qualified education consultant work under one roof, so your visa and study plans line up.
