Student Visa (Step by step)

dadedidodu17 · February 2013

@rave21lala mag e-enroll na sana ng aged care kaso yun nga, nalaman ko di pala sila nagsposponsor pag aged care lang. Balak ko sana sa melbourne, pero baka mag BP na lang ako. hintay ko lang IELTS ko. Ikaw ba? Nakapag IELTS ka na ba?

Magkano po fee ng application ng visa for BP? and sang state kaya mas mura ang BP? or wala naman masyado difference?

rave21lala · February 2013

@yukishih per year lang yon?

@rommel1982 san ka nakaenrol and how much tuition? ilang years mo rin take yung course mo?

@dadedidodu17 usually ang BP nasa 10k. yun nga rin sana iniisip ko ienrol kasi may ielts na din naman ako. kaso maikli lang yung visa na binibigay. may friend ako sa la trobe ngayon nagbibridging hindi daw siya makakapagwork kasi mon-fri pasok 9am-5pm. tapos nagtry na daw siya mag-apply sa hospital ang sabi sa kanya kailangan daw muna niya magwork sa australian hospital full time for 6months bago siya iconsider na RN, eh hanggang sa May lang naman yung visa niya so baka umuwi din muna siya dito.

@rave21lala talaga? nyek.. habang tumatagal ata, mas mahirap na rin mag hanap ng employer na magsposponsor ah. hindi ko na tuloy alam kung ano na aapply-an. sa BP kasi ang problem mo naman dun sponsor..

rave21lala · February 2013

@dadedidodu17 oo nga eh. sobrang hirap magdecide kung anong course kukunin. buti sana kung mura lang ung bachelor of nursing.

Hi my sister took the bridging program

I helped her out sa papers nya even applying online for job. She took te BP a year and half ago. Anyway here it is
Aside sa school papers and etc at least 2 yrs hospital experience kailangan, and ielts 7 all areas

3 months ung BP 1 month lecture 2 months exposure sa hosp ( it means mag duduty ka parang ojt) they have to take an exam sa school para ul be an RN ( which they said na wala naman babagsak as long as always present and nagdduty)

While my sister is on her duty 2-3 month sa BP we already started applying online tlga nag tyaga ako mag apply for her, passed cv and fill up forms online, she was able to get a callback for interview a few times but was aske to returb if natapos na ung bridging , well at least may mga prospect na sya where mag work, but there are also tons of turn down, patience lang tlga. When my sster fnshd her BP may nag aantay na work na sa kanya swerte nya lang.. But some wIll hVe to wait 3 months some even 6 months to get an RN work.. If d naman xhoosy pwde sa home care.. In short tyaga lang tlga..

I hope this can help you guys

Il try to answer some questions na alam ko ha

And yes mon to friday class ng BP 9am to 5pm and as what i can see sa sister ko before ang daming case studies tlga. So ung weekend nila.. D nakakgala kasi they have to do their pApers.. But its all worth it naman.

Jacque888 · February 2013

And if i remember it right, if mabait co mo while applying business visa ibbgay sayo valid for 1 yr multiple entry maximum of 3 months stay.. So if malapit na 3 months its either you exit or re apply for another visa.. But usually what they do nag eexit sila sa new zealand or sg tpos balik agad after few days.. Or yung iba namN nag hahanap agad work while nasa hospital exposure pa sila para pag may nakita na work at ma offer-an na ng working visa so no need to exit.

@jacque888 sa bridging ba kailangan talaga hospital experience? ako kasi company nurse. ano pala course na kinuha mo and saang school?

bbgirl · February 2013

Hi all. Im planning to take up an IT course pero nakita ko sa school requirements:

Philippines
Successful completion of a two year Certificate or Diploma from a recognized institute following successful completion of the High School Diploma.

Hindi kasi ako nakagraduate ng 4 year course. actually mga 20 more units pa until graduation pero i stopped kasi di na talaga kaya. Pwede pa rin ba ako makapasok for Higher Education?

dnoblec · February 2013

@Yukishih kailangan ba na bayaran na lahat ang tuition or pwedeng ELICOS muna?

Jacque888 · February 2013

@rave21lala as what iv heared oo kailangan hosp experience or some what related example ung mga nag wowork sa emergency medical teAm na nurse, i know someone na hindi hosp experience d sya pinayagan mag bridging. So nag EN sya..

dadedidodu17 · February 2013

@Jacque888 wow. thanks! Sobrang laking tulong ng reply mo.

i believe naman na sipag and tiyaga talaga kailangan and of course prayers. Sana lang by the time na matapos bridging program marami parin employers na magsposponsor. hehehe

so pwede mag work while studying BP kaya lang medyo mahirap dahil sa time and requirements? San po pala kayo sa Australia? Tingin niyo po, saan sa Aus maraming employers? hehe

Yukishih · February 2013

@Rommel1982 a year. Bale 1 year lang ako aral.

Yukishih · February 2013

@dadedidodu17 if ang visa mo student puede pero kapag hindi not allowed.

Yukishih · February 2013

@dnoblec elicos plus 1st sem ng course.

rave21lala · February 2013

@yukishih if nameet mo na yung needed ielts score, kailangan pa ba mag-elicos? nagpaassess ako sa globancy, ang sabi sa akin 2years ko pa daw itetake yung bachelor of nursing.

Hi rave21lala.. my cousin is taking up 2- year bachelor of nursing here in sydney. since he got 7 all in ielts, he's qualified to do nursing course for 2 years instead of 3 years. no need to do ELICOS. if you want a pathway to permanent residency, you need to study at least 2 years of bachelor degree basta skilled sya.. hope this helps.

Jacque888 · February 2013

@dadedidodu17 im still waiting for my visa, but was able to vist my sister there 2 already sa perth..

Depende kasi tlga yan if sn my work. Patience lang tlga... Ung sa sster ko naman Nag aaply na sya ng pr now kasi ang exp nya sa phil 3 yrs na and sa work nya rin sa australia 1 yr mahigir na sya inofferan sya ng sponsorship ng work ny

rave21lala · February 2013

@lizliz thanks for the info. im just wondering why yukishih will just take it for a year. anyway, what school did your cousin choose and how much is his tuition?

Yukishih · February 2013

@rave21lala a year kasi nacredit ang subjects ko sa pinas. They will have to assess your docs. Credit prior learning sa deakin university.

Yukishih · February 2013

@rave21lala syempre if nameet mo ang ielts score definitely wala ng elicos. San school ka ba ineenroll? Depende kasi sa program ng school yan. Sa ACU you'll have to study nursing for 2 instead if 3. Sa flinders, curtin and deakin they have a credit prior learning program kaya 1 year na lang. You have to check din and not just depend sa sasabihin ng agency. May mas shorter pa na program sa 1 year yung 3-6 mos na bridging course yun daw need ng exp plus loe from aphra. Yung 2 years na sabi syo okay din mahal and matagal nga lang. Its your choice pa din kung san ka comfortable and mas kampante.

sa2013 · February 2013

Hi, ok lang ba mag inquire sa embassy about sa status ng visa application? feb 13 na lodge yung application then, feb 20 na forward ng slec yung ehealth results. March 11 kasi yung orientation ko.

Jacque888 · February 2013

@sa2013 ako rin i wannA follow up.. Kaya lang baka makulitan sila hahaha

rave21lala · February 2013

@yukishih thanks for the info. la pa nabibigay na school sa akin pero knina nakita ko na yung flinders, 1year nga lang don. company nurse kasi exp ko eh, sbi dpt dw hosp pra mbgyan ng eligibility ng ahpra.

Yukishih · February 2013

Yeah. Need nga daw experience. Kelan ka grad before kasi meron nabibigyan kahit walang experience tapos aphra magdedetermine how long ka mag aral.

@lizliz thanks for the info. im just wondering why yukishih will just take it for a year. anyway, what school did your cousin choose and how much is his tuition?

I think yukishih will just study in 1 year because of the credits. You can do that as well if you like but for me, it's better you take the 2-year graduate entry nursing course as this would boost your points in case you want to apply for PR. my cousin is studying in UWS in sydney and he's paying around 10K AUD, But now, that university charges around 13k-14k per sem
