    However, in discussing this extension with the course manager, she raised serious concerns about the value to you of the Certificate IV (the stage in which you will enrol this semester), because of your previous education and experience. (Your application was not previously referred to the Centre because you did not indicate on your application that you intended to apply for RPL.) Also, there will not be the option of considering any credit or RPL request for this year – you will have to enrol in and study the full Certificate IV, even if you find that some subjects are very basic for you.
    The co-ordinator felt that you would be better to study the Bachelor of Commerce. I guess it is too late to change right now, as it would mean a major change to your visa application (although would move it from assessment level 3 to 2). But if you do not receive your visa in time for this intake, and therefore have to defer to next year, you might like to consider this change.

    Classes started this week, so by joining the class late you will have missed 1 or 2 weeks and you will have to take full responsibility for catching up.

    Could you please respond to acknowledge that you understand these concerns about the level of the course and late enrolment.

    @pepper thanks, nandito pa rin ako pero not as frequent kasi mag bibisy busyhan na rin sa school kasi 2 weeks late n ako, read yung email po ninyo ma'am galing sa school. kung mag 573 nalang kayo ma'am mag babayad kayo nag new app fee? Kasi if hindi naman, baka pwede kayo mag reapply and 573 na kayo. tapos ask for IDP assistance, sabi kasi ng kakilala ko, IDP will assess your proof of funds, so di na tinitingnan sa DIAC. So it means na pag lodge mo. OK na ang proof of funds.

    Ano po course niyo dito ma'am? Mas mabuti kasi kung bachelors degree ka dito, bachelors din kukunin niyo, hindi yung lower na course. Kasi isa rin yan sa basis daw sa approval. Pag nakita nang CO na yung kinuha mong course sa OZ mas mababa sa degree mo before. Parang mahirap daw.

    OK lang yang inggit, basta try mo parin pumunta nang Aus. Nainggit din nga ako eh sa mga nauna. pero na get over ko na. sabi ko bahala na si Lord. HEto ngayon nalilito naman ako kung anong i-iimpake. Haha

    Commit to the Lord everything you do. Then your plans will succeed. Proverbs 16:3 (NIRV)

    The longer you have to wait for something, the more you will appreciate it when it finally arrives. The harder you have to fight for something, the more priceless it will become when you achieve it. And the more pain you have to endure on your journey, the sweeter the arrival at your destination. All good things are worth waiting for, and worth fighting for.

    "IF YOU ASK ANYTHING IN MY NAME, I WILL DO IT".

    John 14:14

    Loving Lord!The Scripture says that You are aware of all our needs, even before we ask You. So I come to You and place this request at Your loving hands.You know how desperate I am for getting the Visa. My soul has become weary and anxious over this delay in getting the visa .O Lord! Speak in the hearts of the concerned officials, grant me favour in their eyes and help me to get my visa on time so that my purpose is fulfilled. Perfect everything for me my Master. I wait at Your feet and trust in You to make this possible. I know that You will do it for You will never let Your children down. I thank You for listening to my plea! To You alone be all honour and glory. In the sweet name of Jesus I pray.Amen.
