What is an Australia Student Visa?
An Australia Student Visa generally refers to the Student Visa (Subclass 500), which allows eligible international students to study full-time at a registered Australian educational institution.
Applicants are generally required to obtain a Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE) from an approved Australian institution before applying for the visa.
The visa category, validity, and stay duration are determined by the Australian Department of Home Affairs based on the applicant’s course, institution, and eligibility.
