At-home and online tests are not accepted.

How to choose

How do you pick the right university in Australia?

Six checks Sunrise counsellors run with every Australia applicant before the application goes in.

1. Is the course CRICOS-registered?

You need a Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE) for a registered course to lodge the Student visa, and the Temporary Graduate visa after study also asks for a CRICOS-registered course.

2. Is the fee a year, a semester or a unit?

Most fee lists quote a year, Victoria University a semester and CQUniversity a 6-credit-point unit. Fees are reviewed every year, so plan for a rise in later years.

3. Can you show the money?

Home Affairs sets living costs at AUD 29,710 for 12 months, about BDT 25.8 lakh, on top of tuition. Check the full list of documents in the Home Affairs Document Checklist Tool.

4. Which evidence level applies to you?

Evidence levels decide how much financial and English proof you attach. Home Affairs moved Bangladesh to the highest level, 3, on 8 January 2026; levels were updated again on 30 September 2026.

5. How fast will your university's applications move?

For 2027, visas are processed as high priority until a university reaches 80% of its allocation of new students; after that they still go ahead, but more slowly.

6. Can you answer the Genuine Student questions yourself?

Answer each question honestly and in your own words, with evidence where asked. The Australian High Commission says your agent must let you see your own ImmiAccount.
