Success Case 1

Visa Type: 500 Student Visa

Visa Approval Date: February 12, 2023

Applicant: Mr Li

Key points: Mr Li, a non-university Chinese graduate, applied to study at RMIT University and was granted an Australian 500 Student Visa within 2 weeks.

Mr Li is a university student from China who sought to study in Australia to improve his English and broaden his horizons by spending time in a foreign country. While searching for information on Australian universities online, with the help of the Edu Pathways team, Li felt confident choosing RMIT due to its excellent quality of teaching and international reputation.


Mr Li then applied to RMIT’s master’s program, providing his educational credentials, language proficiency test results, and an accompanying personal statement. Just a few weeks later, he received a letter of acceptance from RMIT and was then able to start preparing the materials required to apply for an Australian study visa.

In order to apply for the visa, Li was required to submit a number of documents and information to accompany his visa application form, including a copy of his passport, acceptance letter, results from language proficiency tests, bank statements, and a health certificate. He made sure to prepare these documents carefully and made sure to provide accurate information on his visa application.

Mr Li was able to secure sufficient financial support from his parents in order to meet the financial requirement. He provided bank statements to verify he had sufficient funds to pay for his tuition, living expenses, and any additional costs. He also underwent a medical examination and provided a health certificate.


Mr Li did not encounter any significant issues while applying for the Australian study visa. He provided accurate information on the application form, prepared all necessary materials and documents, and submitted the application within the time frame specified by the visa officer.


A few weeks later, Mr. Li received a confirmation email from his visa officer, notifying him that his application had been granted an Australian study visa. He arrived in Australia without difficulty and began his student experience in Australia.
