Sa mga prospective student visa applicants who have plans to stay/work in Australia long term, I wanna offer my 2 cents. When you are choosing the course that you will study, try to think of the future. If possible, make sure na may path to potential PR visa ang ang kukunin nyong course. Ang tendency kasi ng ilan is kung ano lang ang mura at basta makapasok lang sa Australia at makapagpart-time jobs, go na. Maraming kumukuha ng Management courses, for example, pero after that, enrol uli ng panibagong course - additional gastos at time na naman. Ang akin kasi is mamumuhuhan ka na rin lang ng time at pera (na kadalasan ay hinihiram lang din natin, as in my case), eh di i-make sure na din natin na yung aaralin natin ay magbibigay sa atin ng pagkakataon na makapag-apply ng PR. Yun lang po.
