FAQ's

Step 1: Attend a counseling session
Attend a counseling session at our Office to find out your options relating to study destination, courses available and recommended institutions.

Step 2: Apply for admission
Once you have decided what and where you want to study, we will help you complete the application to the colleges and universities of your choice. At the time of application for admission you will be required to submit several documents including proof of previous academic qualifications and in most cases proof of your English language ability. We will also provide you with a checklist for the documents you will need to provide when the time comes to apply for your visa (step 5).

We take the hard work out of tracking the applications by keeping in contact with the university on your behalf.

Step 4: Pay Tuition Fees
To accept your offer from an education provider, you must pay the tuition fee. Most Australian institutions require you to pay the first semester fee only. You can choose to pay this fee through either Telegraphic Transfer (TT) or Credit card payments.

Once the institutions have received and processed your tuition fee payment, they will issue you with an Electronic Confirmation of Enrolment (ECoE). Once we have received this, we will notify you that it is now time to come back to our Office with your required documents and start the visa application process.

Step 5: Visa Lodgment
To lodge your visa application you will need to provide the documents outlined in the checklist we provided you in step 3.
Just like your admission application, AEMC will keep you updated as to the progress of your application and take the hard work out of tracking your application by keeping in contact with the visa office on your behalf.

Step 6: Undertake Medicals
You will need to undertake a medical examination by one of the doctors approved by the Australian Government. Once you have undertaken the medical examination, your doctor will forward the medical reports and documents directly to the visa office.

Step 7: Visa Outcome
We will notify you as soon as we know the outcome of your visa application so you can come in and collect your grant letter. In most cases this is a positive response and it means you can also start planning your travel and accommodation for Australia!

University:- Australian universities are an obvious choice for those wanting a career in a regulated profession such as law, nursing, dentistry, medicine, architecture or engineering, but this covers only a very small proportion of all the fields that can be studied at university. Universities also offer a wide range of degrees in general areas (such as science, health science, business and arts) and more specialized degrees such as journalism, environmental studies or psychology. Universities offer the highest level of qualification available.

TAFE institutes:-Technical and Further Education (Tafe) Institutes offer practically oriented VET Courses at certificate and diploma level that focus on preparing students for vocational or paraprofessional careers (such as careers in the hospitality industry, childcare or design). They are government owned and provide courses designed to give students the skills needed by employers (with work experience and training using industry-standard equipment incorporated into most courses), so you will graduate ready for employment.

Private colleges:-In addition to universities, there are a large number of private colleges in Australia. They may offer higher education courses (including bachelor degrees and/or postgraduate degrees), VET courses or a combination of both. All private providers are subject to extensive regulation and should be registered on the Commonwealth Register of Institutions and Courses for Overseas Students (CRICOS).
