The journey of a student we’ll call Priyanka is based on a detailed account from a migration agent who described the typical process, based on real cases they had seen.
To get to Australia on a student visa, the majority of applicants enrol in a university – yet tens of thousands of them instead end up in the vocational education system.
Initially, Priyanka applies to study in another Western country well-known for its international education. She is refused entry twice because that country’s immigration department did not believe she was coming temporarily. Once students like Priyanka are in Australia and have passed a “genuine temporary entrant” test, the sale does not usually proceed. The “genuine temporary entrant” test is a statement all international students must make to explain why they do not intend to remain in Australia permanently.
