ENROLMENT PROCESS
The Enrolment Process
If you’d like to enrol at VIA there are several steps you’ll need to follow.
Selecting the course that’s right for you
Make sure the course you’ve selected is right for you. It’s important to make sure you fully understand the details of the course you wish to enrol in and the minimum requirements for entry. You should consider the study load required, the course duration, and the employment outcomes that may be available to you once you complete the course.
If you are in any way unsure about your suitability for a course it is important you speak with a course advisor prior to enrolling. You may make an enquiry via email to [email protected]
Making an application
Before applying, read through all of the information contained within this “Apply” section of the website. You’ll need to consider visa requirements, health cover, whether you can afford the course and your living and travel expenses, and our terms and conditions.
Once you are satisfied that all requirements can be met you can complete an Enrolment form, available from this link.
You can send the enrolment form, along with evidence of your level of English, to us by post or email. Our contact details are here. You can also make an application via our agent network.
Receiving a Letter of Offer
We will assess your application, and if approved we will issue you with a Letter of Offer and Student Agreement. This Letter of Offer and Student Agreement will include all of the details of your course enrolment, payment schedule, terms and conditions, and any entry requirements you need to meet prior to commencement.
You should read this Letter of Offer and Student Agreement thoroughly and only sign it or accept it in alternative way when you fully understand its contents.
Returning the accepted Letter of Offer and Student Agreement
When you are satisfied with the Letter of Offer and Student Agreement you may sign it or accept it in alternative way and return it to us along with your first payment as outlined on the Letter of Offer. This first payment will include the enrolment fee, material fee, your first instalment tuition fees, and Overseas Student Health Cover (if you don’t already have it).
Payment methods are listed in the offer letter. Note that there may be transaction costs associated with your method of payment.
Receiving your electronic Confirmation of Enrolment
If you are an overseas student we will issue you with an electronic Confirmation of Enrolment (also known as an ‘eCoE’). You are then ready to apply for your student visa.
Visa application
Visas are processed by the Australian Government’s Department of Home Affairs. Information on the visa application process can be found on their website at www.homeaffairs.gov.au
