Australias student visa program offers different subclasses of visas, which broadly match type of study a person is planning to undertake.
Each type of student visa covers different education sectors, ranging from the School Sector, which applies to primary and secondary school courses, to the Higher Education or University Sector.
Before applying for a visa, overseas students must be accepted into full time study by a registered Australian education provider.
Information on registered education providers in Australia can be accessed online.
Once a student is accepted into a course of study, theyre ready to lodge a student visa application.
