you obviously failed to understand what that means.........if your course is longer that 3 months (your visa will always be for the entire duration of your course, plus a few months at the end for you to tidy up loose ends before you leave), your visa will automatically entitle you to do part time work up to 20hrs/week during semester time and unlimited during vacation break..........if your course of study is shorter than 3 months, then you are not entitled to work.........

before 2007, you need to apply for a separate work visa, this was changed to automatic work visa in 2007...........

i see...

thx a lot for clearing my doubt

now, i can't wait to go to Adelaide next week already...hope everything will goes well even though i'm going to miss my enrollment advice session will be late for one day...sponsor's decision, plus MAS tickets sold out so quick *sigh*

Hi guys.. It's my 2nd day in Adelaide and it's boring... Anyone is attending unisa magill campus orientation day on Monday? I'm taking bachelor of psychological science here.

Geelong... nice place, waterfront is good for chilling out, the buffet restaurant (Cunningham Pier IIRC) is pretty good.... eat till you drop.

It's a pretty White-dominated area, and the whole town goes crazy due AFL days.... You'll see Cats everywhere.

AFL as in their footy league? i've asked around, not many ppl play futsal, and for soccer i'd hafta go all the way to Waurn Ponds.

You've stayed here StarGhazzer?

Wow, this is an interesting thread!!

I am currently studying in Canberra (ACT) in the Australian National University (ANU) and am going to pursue 2nd year bachelor of engineering when i go back this coming 23rd february 2010.

Haiz....Burwood also almost similar. Travel to the city also quite expensive.

Nope. Only visited Geelong a few times, but never really stayed there for long.

Been to Adelaide 2 days too. Hahaha.. Im here all by myself and gotta agree that its boring. No one to eat with or discuss with.. Homesick now. Where do u live btw?
