Payment and Evidence of Funds
The deadline for paying your subject fees for the first term is the Friday before Orientation. Ensure you have paid your full term fees, as you will not be able to enroll in subjects otherwise. International students must demonstrate and/or declare genuine access to sufficient funds to be granted a student visa.
Applicants may need to demonstrate sufficient funds to cover expenses for the first one or two years in Australia, depending on their assessment level. This ensures students can make the most of their studies and have a safe and enjoyable experience in Australia. Funds should cover travel, tuition, costs of any dependents, and living expenses.
Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC)
For international students, it is a condition of an Australian student visa to obtain Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC). TKL College uses Bupa as its preferred provider. Refer to the Bupa website for information on prices. TKL College campuses are centrally located in capital cities with access to health centers and hospitals nearby. We will direct students to appropriate clinics if needed.
