IMPORTANT UPDATE- CESSATION OF OFFSHORE APPLICATIONS FROM OFFSHORE COUNTRIES
In light of enhanced student visa integrity measures, Migration Strategy of the Australian Government (https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/what…/migration-strategy) and Australian Government’s policy measures to bring down student visas to sustainable number, we regret to inform you that Choice Academic College has temporarily ceased accepting new student applications from OFFSHORE UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.
Any offer letters issued to these regions remain withdrawn/cancelled. We will ask the agents/students to apply for visa application withdrawal for any OFFSHORE visa pending CoEs and provide the tuition fees refund.
We continue to accept ONSHORE students provided the students meet the Genuine Student Test Criteria.
We understand that this decision may impact some of our prospective students and their aspirations to study with us. Please know that this is a temporary measure, and we are actively monitoring the situation. As an education provider, we welcome and support the Australian Government reforms/measures to ensure student visa integrity and understand the measures that were introduced to bring high quality, low risk students and achieve more sustainable immigration for Australia. We look forward to welcoming students from offshore regions back as soon as circumstances permit.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation during these challenging times.
Thank you,
Choice Academic College
Kind regards,
