email the uni what your applying to see if there is any other agent?
My visa everything is paid tru them and goes to the fee.

lol..agent of coz need money..which is ur agent?
even me apply through IDP also need service fee(well,duh)...just my application fee waived...

Just apply for it online yourself.

Most of us did (well, I did anyway hehe). Its pretty simple stuff really. You just have to follow all the instructions that they give.

I couldn't be bothered to pay people money, no matter how small, if I can get the same thing done myself.

Just keep posting to the forum if you need any help throughout the process, I remember spamming inboxes with my own questions We'll try to help as much as possible (or as much time allows since finals are approaching + assignments are due)..

applying through agent can bring you worries-free..
i went to agent,ask opinion hows the university, is it suitable for me,etc
then have exhibition fair and i drop many applications to many universities which application fee waived..
if i get any offer letter, they will call me and just go to agent..i no need do anything

Yea get the agent to do it.
Its free!

Last time i went to aused.
To me Aused is very helpful compare to other agents.

aww when's ur grad? >< I'm taking a flight back to msia in early nov =/ right after exams.

anyways, how's everyone? it's freezing in hobart, and i'm still not using heater. lol. + exams are coming!!!!!!! gaaaaah~

Well my agent is IDP as well. Application fee to the university is free. But when come to visa application, they need to charge us service fee also. As far as understand, student visa and student dependent visa application is quite straight forward.

I translated my documents into English myself and got it certified..That works for me..

IDP need service charge or fee to help u process the application + visa application
if not mistaken,i pay RM75 for all the processes..is not rly expensive like RM100++
they recommend me which cheap n nearest clinic for medical check up, cheap flight with extra baggage(40kg),etc
but i ignore it

some agents do not require payments from u... like mine, he's working for several universities, to look for potential students, and sign with the agent to look for universities. They paid the agent for every application brought in by the agents

i applied thru AusEd today..... and yes i need to pay the service.. but they will settle everything for u =D and let u noe wat u shud do

i had a dilemma on which uni should i choose...

Monash melb, UTS sydney, UWA wa...

i had all the offer letter to study in july intake for bachelor...

engineering course...

In anticipation of the increased accommodation queries that will inevitably come as the second intake approaches. I would like to share some information for those intending to study, and subsequently, rent in Queensland.

http://www.qut.edu.au/sharehousing/rentolo...tologypage.html

It is a rather good flash based "game" which informs the player on their rights and responsibilities as a renter in Queensland made by QUT with the help of the QLD RTA. Even if you have been renting all this while, its not a bad thing to give the game a spin, as the rules have changed, and even I found somethings that I didn't know through this interactive way of obtaining information.

It is not the last word, and any dispute will be resolved through the (new) Residential Tenancies and Rooming Accommodation Act 2008 (Qld), but it is a good starting point.

Do note that while significant efforts have been made to harmonise the different renting laws across Australia, this only applies to Queensland. Students in other states should look very carefully at the specific renting laws of their state.

hmm..i am curious about 1 thing..
i got 1 friend who graduated and he sign up for 3 with phone(24 months contract)..few months later he left australia and never inform 3 about this..
he take the phone along back to malaysia..so what will happen next?will get blacklist from australia?cannot enter the country anymore?

wow..that's interesting...think will get blacklisted from all telcos....but not sure about whether he's able to enter australia again...

that wat i was thinking too. but i saw some people can go for another telco when he never pay the bill ffor the previous telco

that how ap phone seller make money...

Hmm...that's really interesting now..i thought they have some sort of integrated blacklist among telcos...once you're in the blacklist, you cannot register a new line under any telco...even malaysia has that system..it's difficult to imagine aus doesn't use that..

I'm not aware of any general blacklist among telcos either, but I know in the US, they have a publicly available credit scoring system in which service providers generally look into when you sign up for a service. If you don't pay your bills, you'll get a poor score which will affect your chances of securing loans, buying a car, home, etc.

telco do credit check when each customer sign up..i guess they will check any blacklist for your name..
but i don't know how the person can still sign with another telco
but if you dont pay a bill in australia, will malaysia know about it too?
and outstanding bill will be increase a lot once u nvr pay for long ago?
