Shodur:
Hi guys..compliments of the season. Please I just want to find out if anyone else is going to uni of Western Australia Perth, and has accommodation already or will like to share one together?...or those anyone else have any accommodation in Perth that isn't far from Uwa that will like to share?...please lemme know. Will be coming to Perth 2nd week in February by God's grace.

you dont need to pay for your ECOE to come out, you only need to pay your tuition deposit and OSHC, then you apply to your school for ECOE or if u are using the service of the school agent u send ur payment slip to the agent and they will apply for ECOE for u. its free broda

Phemorinho:
please house, like how much or what percentage is required to be paid to get ECOE?

Hello, by the grace of God February i will be coming to perth. Please can i find an apartment of AUD70 or less per week? i will like to know cus what is online is scary about AUD150 - 180 per week (outrageous)

TotsAdorb:
Hey everyone,

Haven't been on here in a while. Decided to pop in and see how it's going. If you are coming to Western Australia (Perth) and have questions, please ask.

Hello did you use an agent for your visa application? and what was the amount you used for statement of account and was it in your surname? cus my is my cousin and he is ready to sworn an affidavit

lilspiceyy:

Thanks I wish u same too and Yes I am on SVP. I applied 15th may, it was received 20th may, I was called for interview on the 27th of may and got my grant today 4th June.

yes you can still meet up if u have your money ready cus session starts by 22 February 2016.

aceBlazer:


Wow ... Will I still meet up . It's just been one week since they got my application. Curtin is damn slow and then you must use their agent and it's not like they're cheap oh.

Thanks tho...guess I should go get a chill pill.

@ aceblazer, it took me exactly 3 weeks to get an offer letter from Curtin University

aceBlazer:


I think we ve got similar situations here...just that you've got a few steps ahead. I hope to abort curtin's forceful amalgamation with these agents...as soon as I land my admission.

I think you might need that in case you choose to disembark.

BTW...I really would like to know how long it took from the time your agent lodged your application to the time you got a positive response from Curtin?? My patience is kinda drying up...maybe it's the harmattan sha

Best regards to all...nice job!

Thanks @ bellong, i am great full

bellong:
Keneth,

There is nothing the agent can do to speed up the visa process. It takes about the same time if you apply yourself and if you do through an agent.

For information, read this thread or go to Australian Border Force's website for requirements.

what is stopping me is the length of time i have. my course starts by February 22nd and i don't know how long it may take me to get student visa if i am applying myslf. Please what are my required document to process the visa my self to avoid delay? thanks

bellong:
^^^^^ What stops you from applying yourself?

Please oo i posted a question earlier but no answer. My school curtin university does SVP and the agent is now telling me that things have change recently, that i am suppose to submit a statement of account of 6 million from my account or account of my sponsor bearing the same surname with me or it has to be somebody bearing a different surname but has a PR in Australia or newziland.
now the whole thing is a big problem, i contacted another agent who is not the school agent and he said his doesn't work that way that the moment i get my eCoe i should send it to along side my document and leave the statement of account things to him.
Please is it advice-able to change from the school agent after getting eCoe?
is they any truth in what this new agent is telling me? cus i got his contact from Australia Immigration portal

ayinsyd:
Hello @kennethagada, pls note i am not a Guru but i will answer based on how i went about mine.
I also used first bank and the truth of the matter is that the exchange rate changes everyday according to the people at the bank.
I paid about 2.5mill for get my coe and at the time the exchange rate was 1AUD TO 150NGN. In the process of making the payment the bank charged me 16,000NGN which is about 0.6% of the money i paid for the UNI. i don think CBN will charge u much cos of the current reform.

Hope this helps a bit. Cheers

thanks a big time, it do help

PLEASE OOO. After paying my tuition my agent came up with a different news, that i need a bank statement of 6,000,000 naira from my brother or parent with my surname:
1. My school (CURTIN UNIVERSITY) does SVP, from the info gathered i thought if a school does SVP u do not need to submit the bank statement with 6,000,000 naira.
Please how do i go about dis? my program start by 22 feb 2016

URGENT RESPONDS: Please ooo Gurus, i want to make payment for my tuition fee at curtin university Australia but checking from exchange rate everything is about 2,755,450 naira why paying through the school online transfer through a financial institution partnering with the school (peer transfer) it is 2,896,686 naira. please oooo looking at the CBN current reform, will CBN charge me straight base on exchange rate or will they also include a high charge as these peer transfer guys? bcus this peer guys is about 100k+ higher than exchange rate. i am using FIRST BANK.

No you cannot. Yo would be lucky to find any apartment cheaper that 140, infact I'd say its impossible. Budget like 150-180 weekly to be on the safe side.
As for finding a job instantly, its possible. But it does take settling in to know what to do.[Thanks, pertaining the job how much can i expert to get per hour? i have B.Engr in Mechanical Engineering and i am Going for Master in Subsea Engineering]

Please gurus in the house,
1. can i find a shared apartment between AUS$50 - AUS$90 in Perth(western Australia) or suburb?
2. I am going for master of Subsea Engineering and I studied Mechanical Engineering in my first degree, what are my chances of getting a part time job as i would want to start job almost immediately to support myself and how much cant i expert. i have 2 years and 6 month relevant work experience.
3. is any one going to Curtin university from this forum? i will be going by February and will be happy to have a friend from home. contact me if any agascoy2k.2009@yahoo.com
4. Pertaining job issue, how much can i get per hour over there? praying of having am engineering wise job and how can i get a part time job with am engineering film particularly oil and gas film. What are the things to be put together to merit such placement?

Hello house, please i need your advice. I studied Mechanical Engineering in my first degree and i was offered Subsea engineering at Curtin University Australia to begin by 22 February 2016 and the tuition fee is AUS$17,800 ABOUT 2.780000 naira per semester and its a four semester course for two years. I have my tuition for the first semester already, but is it possible for me to raise the remaining semester tuition's in Australia? by working my ass through the 20 hours work per week and unlimited at break. i am already thinking of working 16 hours during break.
Secondly how do i get a cheaper accommodation ($90 per week) in perth even if it means pairing with someone, because what i saw online is on the high side about AUS$170 PER WEEK.
