@skittles - lodge it as soon as you can. you'll never know. February is the intake of choice for many. It could be that on those time student VISAs are given priority or it could be that the COs are just in the mood because they are going to get their bonuses or with the number of student visas scheduled for that intake date, DIAC might have a backlog. I have heard of cases where schools had the students lodge on January so they could catch up with the Feb classes. They ended up deferring to the July intake instead.
anyway. I emailed DIAC and heres what they have to say ayan...so waiting2 up to July 3, Class commences July 15. Need to be there at least 2 weeks before. As the famous George Takei would say... "OH MYYYYYY."
