Coral reefs, lovely sandy beaches, and diverse fauna come to mind when we think of Australia. However, there is a lot to learn about this island country. It’s crucial to learn about Australian culture, cuisine, history, and social customs if you’re thinking about studying abroad there. If not, you can get into trouble or encounter unpleasant shocks while you’re overseas.
There are a few things your advisor might have overlooked in your pre-departure orientation package, regardless of whether you decide to study in Australia through a third-party programme provider, your home university’s programme, or directly register in a university in Australia. Before you fly to Australia, let us provide you some information that is important to know.
You will require a student visa if you plan to study in Australia for longer than three months. The application process is not too difficult. Everything is done online, electronically linked to your passport, so there is no need to visit an embassy or wait for the mail to come. You should be able to travel on an ordinary tourist visa and save time and money if you are studying abroad for less than three months.
Health insurance might be covered if you are participating in a study abroad programme, but if you are enrolling in a university directly, you almost certainly have to purchase it in Australia.
All international students must get Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC), according to Australian law. Make sure you enrol in a plan that meets your needs for coverage because insurers might provide a variety of OSHC policies. And always make sure you are fully informed about what is and is not covered by your study abroad programme by checking in with them.
Sydney and Melbourne rank among the top 10 cities in the world for cost of living. Prepare to face sticker shock on everything from housing to food, and make sure to save up a sizable amount of cash.
Recall the pricey student visa you had to purchase? You can, however, get your money back! You are typically permitted to work 20 hours per week with an Australian student visa.
If you can manage employment and study given Australia’s high minimum income ($21.38 AUD/$14.89 USD), it’s worth it! It will look good on your resume and be a terrific method to meet people in your new city.
