How it Works:
Consultation:
When you contact us to schedule a consultation, you will speak with one of our expert Immigration Officers to determine what steps you need to take. We will ask if you need help with any step in the process and can also help if you started independently or with another agency.
Most countries require that you are first accepted into a program, school or university before applying for a Student Visa. This includes student visas for children or minors who wish to attend both private and publicly run schools. We can help you find and apply for relevant programs and institutions.
After the initial consultation, we will send you a service agreement, schedule the Assessment and send you the invoice (about $110.00) for the Assessment fee.
Assessment:
After the consultation, we will schedule the Assessment and provide you with the various options for the process. This usually includes applying for schools, university or training programs, Student Visa application, or Visa process.
The fee is about $27.00 per page of the application, including instruction pages, this applies to both Student Visa, and school, university or program applications plus 5% of the submission fee (if any).
Costs for finding appropriate schools, universities or programs are dependent on client specifications and will be included in a separate service agreement.
Application:
Once the Assessment is completed, we will begin the formal application process. We will provide you with the link for the official website (if applicable) of the agency for the applications.
Most modern countries usually have an option, or require, that the application be completed online through the appropriate government site. We suggest the all clients pay any application fees directly through the official government site, and we will then complete the form for you. You will then receive confirmation that the application has been submitted (this may be immediate or after several days depending on the specifics of the application, including country and application type.
This may be a multi-step process whereupon after the application is submitted additional details or documents are required. (Such as a criminal history check, university acceptance letters or other details.)
Additionally, we can facilitate payment for a fee if absolutely required.
We will assist you with these additional steps as well.
Acceptance:
After the application has been submitted, you will receive the acceptance notification. This is different for every country and is usually between a few weeks or months.
You may be required to either take or post your passport to the inviting country’s embassy for the Student Visa. You will receive instructions usually along with the acceptance notification. The Student Visa is usually required upon entering the country.
Important Note: The Acceptance notification may be online, emailed or posted to your address, and you will need to contact us when you receive any email or post regarding your Student Visa application.
Examples:
Application fees for Student Visas are different for every country.
As of July 2024 Australia had the highest application fee for student Visas at AUD1,600.00 and the application itself is 4 pages long, and will permit Student Visa holders to work part-time or full time for masters and higher programs.
An application for the UK has an application fee of £490 and a number of different forms for different types of student Visas ranging from about 5 pages to over 40 The UK will also require a healthcare fee based on length of Visa.
