Hi Queenslander

do you have any info on how hard (or what you have to do )to get in to UNI on a perminant res visa as a mature student.Thinking if i get my visa want to change career path and this would involve going to uni (f/t or p/t)am thinking f/t as for 1st /2nd year financially can do it.

thanks

well, as far as i know, if you're a PR/NZ citizen, you get charged the same as other Aussies & your application is streamlined with the Aussies. however, sometimes for certain degrees, the fee structure doesn't apply to PR/NZ citizens, i.e. you'll have to pay the same amount as international students...which is $$$$! however, there are many scholarships around, if one looks hard enough. there is a search engine, it's called JASON . Create a new account and set your target degrees, because you can choose to have an auto-email option, which sends emails about scholarhips whenever it becomes available. But as far as the your PR status with regards to you studying here, it's perfectly simple. Also, if you've had work experience prior to application, it helps a lot but you MUST make it known to them because you mgith be able to get exemptions for certain subjects, which means that you'll pay a few dollars less, which could help you buy a few more pints ! if you need more info. on migartions matter please head to the Australian Immigration . It's got all the forms & info. you need. I do hope i've been of some help & if i hadn't please go the these websites for more info. Good luck & take care!
