Hi. I am new here. I don't know exactly where to go. I am a registered nurse here in the Philippines and I am interested in studying in Australia for a bridging course that will help me become a registered nurse there. I need some help on looking for a good school that offers a bridging course.
My aunt told me that a friend of her friend just went to AU to take up a test and in 6 months she's there for a bridging program. and I have this friend who has a friend who became a registered nurse in AU in 6 months time too. This agency is offering me to study for a certificate III aged care with occupational English test for 46 weeks in Einstein College but it costs too much. So now, I am trying to look for a school wherein I can apply by myself and hopefully get in. I am hoping I could leave for AU this June 2011. I am a bit lost on what to do. Can you help me, please? Any suggestions? ? Please help me. Thank you very much.
(Sydney area would be better since my parents are more familiar and in favor of that place... though other cities/areas will be great too)
Sorry I couldn't send a private message so I am posting my reply instead. Yes I am for the May Intake for ACN. Actually, I was supposed to be for April Intake but due to the issue of the immigration and ACN I was moved to the next intake which is May. Did you have the same problem?
As for the visa, I am with the agency that you mentioned in your message and my visitors visa 600 (business stream) was lodged last friday. But oddly, I haven't received any text message from the embassy that they received my application.
Anyway, for the AFP name check. I was checking the online application and there was a part where I needed to fill up the details on "Contact Number" and Australian Drivers License Number and I couldn't move on to the next because I placed my Number in the Philippines. How is that?
I'm a newbie here :) I am currently taking up the assessment of competence program here in ACoN Burwood..I am really enjoying it; however, I'm still anxious about the coming clinical placement. If you could kindly give me some tips, that would be awesome!! :) also, tomorrow, we'll be doing the "clinical skills"..any tips? :) i hope we can meet each other :)
Hi xoxoserrahxoxo
I had problems with my visa the last couple of months because of ACN/CONs registration that's why I was moved for the May 2013 intake. Just got my visa today. It took me 3 months to get a visa. :) I'm looking forward in meeting you when I get there. Maybe you're the one who can give us tips re: the bridging course in CON. :) I'm pretty sure you'll do great in the clinical placement.
just yesterday... and i really want to go there! but some people are telling me that i dont have much tym to preapare for it. wat do u tink?
For May intake? The intake will be on the 31st, right? I think you still have time to work on it if you will start right away. I haven't been on that visa process but as what I've heard 1 month is enough for the processing. Where are you from?
does anyone know here what number to call to ask for the record number to track the visa application online? is it the number that you inquire for the requirements or the number for lodging?? thank you

From Manila, Philippines... well my agency is telling me that i might not have enough tym and insisting to go to AAON, which will strt June 6... just a week after the Deakin's commencement.
does anyone have ani idea whether i can change my commencement to xt intske? like if the offer aaon gave me is for june, do u tink they will allow me to move it to july?
i need your help guys, especially for those who had already undergone the bridging program. like, how much were u able to spend for this? and if it's possible, i'd also like to know the breakdown of the total expenses. i'm currently weighing things out. thanks!
