Enrolment Assistance for Adults and Kids
1. Complete the AICOL Application for Enrolment form. You should try to do this at least a few weeks before the course starting date if time permits.
2. AICOL will confirm your enrolment and send you an invoice containing the following:
Tuition and Registration Fee
If required, Overseas Student Health Cover for Student Visa
If requested, Airport Transfer and Accommodation
3. All fees must be paid prior to starting a course at AICOL.
Student Visa
4. AICOL AGENTS – AICOL has no current formal agency agreements for the referral of students. Students are welcome to enrol direct either on-line, by post or fax, in person or through their agent. If a student is enrolled by their agent we are happy to communicate directly with the agent.
5. Make sure you have a current passport and check with the Australian Embassy if you need a Tourist Visa or Student visa.
6. To qualify for a student visa, you must be enrolled for full time English language study, which is twenty hours compulsory and 5 hours optional self study at AICOL per week.
7. A Student visa allows you to work for up to twenty hours per week. When we receive your fees, we will send you an Overseas Student Confirmation-of-Enrolment (CoE), and an Acceptance Letter. You then apply for a Student Visa from the Australia Embassy. Allow sufficient time for your application to be processed.
Tourist Visa
8. You do not need a CoE for a tourist visa. Please note that a Tourist Visa allows you to attend courses at AICOL for up to 12 weeks. Students from some countries may not be able to change this visa to a student visa once you have arrived in Australia.
9. Make your travel arrangements and send us flight details of your arrival. We cannot guarantee airport transfer unless we receive your flight details at least three days before arrival.
We are happy to arrange homestay through our own internal homestay office for both student visa students and tourist visa students and for adults and children.
