Can you give us a little more information - are you currenty here in Australia and living near one of the universities you have mentioned

You say you are a nurse and want to study for pre registration - what level are you currently at

I am not currently in the general nursing system (I am involved in aged care we too deal with students on placement) - l am trying to figure out what you mean by 'student must have ielts 7.0 after graduation for registration"

Maybe someone else could explain this also

Anyway welcome to our forum and the allnurses Bulletin board we all hope that it is useful and informative for you and that you will make many friends and enjoy the comradie that happens with nursing world wide.

Cheers Tookie

Welcome Sherry,
You might be able to obtain the informatiom you require by contacting the nurses board in the state in which you wish to live & work.
Here in Australia, each state has it's own nurses board & you need to register with the board in the state you are working.
If you are wanting to work at Flinders Medical Centre in South Australia, you need to contact
the nurses board at;

REGISTRATION OFFICER
NURSES BOARD of SOUTH AUSTRLAIA
PO Box 7176 Hutt Street
ADELAIDE SA 5000

Hoping this helps in your quest.
Cheers,
Grace

HI sherry

I have been in contact with rarry who is also a member and an RN in China. You might want to contact her by Email or PM as she might be able to help. She like you is looking to come to Australia so she might have some hints.

Sandra is correct you have to check with each Registration board in each state ( a pain I know) but most are on the internet as are a lot of our Universities.

Flinders university is in South Australia and RMIT is in Melbourne Victoria and there is a big distance between them. Let me know if there is anything more I can do to help.
