Difficult
Criteria of Australian Institutions to Nepalese Students
Australia granted
404000 students visa in total in 2014 (www.icef.com). Many Nepalese students are also applying,
studying and settling in Australia. Unlike from developed countries students,
Nepalese students have to show the evidence to prove their financial capacity
to the Universities and Visa Office. Additionally, they have to prove the
genuineness of their intention to study. This is a normal process. It has to be
there. Even visa office and universities
and colleges required students to show the funds only from two banks of Nepal
among 32 banks. They are Nabil and SBI Bank Ltd. They have strict criteria some
of which are the following:
1)
Property should
touch the 10 feet street, otherwise you will not be able to secure a loan
2)
Property has to
be in the name of student’s parent (third party collateral cannot be accepted)
3)
Even if property
touched the road/street, it has to be closer the to the bank (branch)
4)
Students have to
show the source of income from Nepal only. They cannot show the funds from the
income of their family who are working abroad
5)
Even if students
meet the criteria, it takes at 1-2 months to process the loan
I would like to
concentrate this article about the issue of offer letter in the beginning and
refusal at the end. Many universities and colleges issue offer letters to the
students based on the academic documents, English Language test and the
experience. They even issue an offer for those students who have got long gap
year. After receiving an offer, students prepare their financial documents and
one of them is the preparation of loan from the above mentioned any one of
those two banks. During this process students have to invest a lot of money,
time and energy. They need to visit municipal office, banks, police station to
make police report, they need to visit notary public to translate and attest
their documents, and they have to make the no objection letter as well. In the
hope of getting acceptance letter from the University, they prepare all the
documents. Once they are ready, send their document to the college or
university to get the final approval. But the same university starts to
questions the students and withdraws their offer. Students become sad, lose hope,
and lose money and time. So if possible Australian Institutions have to screen
the students in the beginning and prevent this loss. I know there are some
universities which are doing such investigation in the begging and based on the
findings, they issue offer letters. But many universities issues offer and
withdraw those offers at the end. That gave the negative impression to the
students and agents. I know this is a common problem to Nepalese students and
agents.
This is true that
Australia needs rich and brilliant students to their institutions who can bring
the money for the expenses. That is fair enough plan. Each country in the world
has their right to make it better and smart. But my sincere request to them is,
please screen in the beginning and take them. This process will help the
students to prevent their loss of time, money and energy.
Australia Deports 224 Nepali Students
Pay Attention those who are planning to go to study
in Australia
While writing this
blog, I come to know that Australia recently deported 224 Nepalese students
because of their bad intention to join another institution. Initially they joined
at the universities and to save their money, they tried to change their provider
(low cost, private college). Based on their intention to cheat, they went to
the University and to make money they quit the study. That is the consequence they
face. This happens to Indian, Chinese and other countries students as well. So
those students, who plan to go to Australia for study, be serious on your study
only. If you are not able to finance for your study, please search other
options please.
