    @markier87 no fee ang IDP kung sila nagprocess from enrollment to school to visa application. pero kung visa processing lang, may fee sila. from what i remember sa isang nagcomment dito, 10k ata? i'm not sure though.

    about your friend, syempre mas ok ang bachelor degree, especially kung nasa SOL ang course nya, kasi may PR pathway. but if there is an issue sa finances, pwede rin syang magvocational. in a vocational course though, he has to get himself an employer to sponsor him a work visa after he graduates as opposed to a bachelor degree of at least two years in duration na eligible to apply for a two-year post study work visa.

    does he plan to finish his degree here pa ba?

    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.

    @iheartoz 1.5 to hours byahe. Tapos mga 3 times magtransfer ng sakayan. Yun. The other one 20 mins bus ride lang. ;)) Parang natatakot akong magdecide. :-)) Yung relatives ko naman mas gusto nila yung isa kasi nga sikat daw, pero ACU is known naman for nursing diba? :-/ Hirap magdecide :((

    @asdfghjklqwerty try to visit the websites of your chosen schools na lang. or research2x ka for reviews. compare mo. i heard ACU has a small population lang daw. so, i guess, not too tough ang school life. depends on what you really want. i didn't have a hard time choosing kasi ang main goal ko is to find a school na malapit-lapit sa house ng bro ko. yun. just follow you heart. :)

    Actually kukulitin mo talaga pero bakit sa iba sumasagot sa kanila agad?

    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!

    @Siopao23, di ko rin talaga maintindihan itong DIAC, sa iba nag rereply, sa iba hindi. At sana naman, nagbayad tayo for them to process, wag naman sanang maging ganyan ang treatment.

    @iheartoz Thanks for the reply! No, he will not finish his studies here sa Pinas. And if bachelors ba, pwede one sem muna ang babayaran? So free lang ang IDP exempt for the VISA application? Okay din nman po ba ang feedback sa services nila? Anybody has the contact for IDP Cebu? We are from Mindanao kasi and mas convenient if Cebu kami magprocess. Please help.

    Thanks a bunch! :)

    Good pm sa lahat. Kanina around 3pm I received a call from Au Embassy. Phone interview. Buti sinagot ko yung phone. I dont usually take calls from an unknown telephone number and kakababa ko lang from FX na sinasakyan ko. Umupo muna ako sa tabi and answered all of the CO's question. :-) Medyo worried ako when she asked about my previous grades in college. Hay now I regret for being so "studious" back then. Di ko pa kasi alam priorities ko nun eh. Kaya sobrang "impressive" ng grades ko. She asked me anong assurance na I am going to do well sa Australia. Hindi ko nasabi sa kanya na I excelled sa dati kong pag aaral sa UK nung Elementary ako. :D Sana na satisfy ko naman ang mga questions niya sa akin. I asked her if my application is too early sabi nya oo daw pero at least she has a lot of time to assess my documents. God willing mabigyan ako ng chance to finish my studies.

    Kamusta na kayo? Any updates?

    @bbgirl Hi! Tanong ko lang if anong level nang 573 po kayo? Undergrad po ba or Masters? Kasi I have a friend na 1st year pa lang now and plans to study in Australia.

    For everybody else: How do you go about the services offered by IDP? Thanks po. :)

    573 level 1/SVP po - Bachelor's/ undergraduate. :) it depends po sa achool requirement kung anong level ka natapos dito sa Pinas.

    I consulted IDP pero for me kung kumpleto siguro ang docs mo and GTE student ka naman talaga no need ng IDP. Ikaw pa din naman pprocess lhat. I-guiguide ka lang nila. In my case kasi may napili na akong school and course kaya direct na ako sa school. :)

    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.

    Hello. Ask ko lang kung okay lang kaya na mag follow-up na agad ako sa DIAC kahit kakalodge ko lang last September 12, and SLEX confirmed that they've already submitted my M.Examination last September 19. Commencement date ko kasi this coming October 21 na. Anyway, thank you pala sa two persons (forgot the names) na nag comment the last time I asked. Godbless.

    Yes ok lang yan.

    "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.

    @markier87 i paid one sem only. most schools, one sem lang naman. free ang services ng IDP, including visa application, kung sila nagprocess ng application mo sa school. ibig sabihin, from start to finish, sila ang nag assist sayo. may fee lang sila kung yung application to school, you did on your own tapos visa application assistance na lang ang inavail mong services from them. you can email [email protected]. i'm from mindanao too, btw.

    hello po! Tanong lang po...

    If kumuha ako ng 1year study (aged care III and IV), may extension pa ba ng 1 year ang stay ko or dapat bumalik na sa Pinas? Makakahanap po ba ng work agad after grad?Thank you sa makakasagot ;-)
    if you're under student visa, yung validity ng visa mo is until matapos mo lang ang course mo. after that, you really have to go back home, unless you find yourself an employer who will sponsor you OR you finished at least a two-year bachelor or masters degree, entitling you to a post study work visa. kung makakahanap ng work agad after graduation, nobody can really tell.
