hello, lurker here. ffr, these are the SVP-eligible uni's (not limited to go8). best to aim for these schools because show money won't usually be a requirement for student visa, however be ready with documents just in case (usually happens when there are questions re: gte).

benefits of svp include faster processing time, higher approval rate, less requirements. possible downside is the enrollment process with the uni can take long because they vet the student. if applying to one of these schools, give enough lead time because the coe turnaround time can take up to 4 weeks. but after the wait, as long as all your requirements are in order, you should get your visa fairly quickly. goodluck! đŸ™‚
