Each country, across each education sector, is assigned an Assessment Level which is based on the calculated immigration risk posed by students from that country studying in that education sector.

There are five Assessment Levels in the student visa program. Assessment Level 1 represents the lowest immigration risk and Assessment Level 5 the highest.

The higher the Assessment Level, the greater the evidence applicants are required to demonstrate to support their claims for the grant of a student visa.

Visit the Australian Department of Immnigration and Citizenship for more information. 

Some programs have an earlier closing date. To find out if an earlier deadline applies, go to the information for the specific program on the Courses and Programs website.

You must leave enough time for the University to process your application and to issue an offer.

You must also leave enought time to organise your student visa, which may take up to six months.
