A migration expert warns international students that they should not pin their hopes of securing permanent residency on their existing visas because the exorbitant expenses incurred in obtaining a degree from an Australian academic institution does not necessarily guarantee positive results.


International students should practice caution in taking business and leadership courses because these may not align with the jobs that are included in the Australian Medium and Long -term Strategic Skills List.

The migration expert stresses the importance of doing research and carefully mapping out the course of action while considering the applicants' qualifications, work experience vis-a-vis the requirements set out in the Australian migration program.
