this thread is intended for those who are seeking registration to nmbwa. wanurses are most welcome in this thread.. we want to hear from you and those who are currently undertaking bp...
I'll be enrolling in Curtin too this July. I'm just waiting for our PR. I hope we could meet. We'll be classmates after all.
I can tour you around Perth once you're already here if you like. I can pick you up at the airport too! We're just 6kms away from the airport and also 6 kms away from Curtin. No problem for a kababayan.
Cheers!

wow.. very warm welcome!!!! thanks.. im still waiting for my visa.. hehe..
Do you have any relatives here in Perth? If you're already gonna book your flight I suggest you choose Brunei airlines coz it's cheaper. Or if you're ok with low cost airlines you can go with jetstar. Just keep posted on your progress. See you mate...
im in perth right now, but only for a visit. maybe you can advice me the steps to take to be able to enroll in curtin? from what i understand i have to apply for eligibility from nmbwa first, am i right? or can i apply directly at curtin? im kinda confused. thnx heaps.
Welcome to Perth mate. Are you living with your relatives here or are you alone? what's your visa? You need letter of eligibility from nmbwa to enroll in curtin. And you need 1.5 million pesos too. Or better yet ring curtin and ask if you can enroll directly even w/o the letter from nmbwa. Conversion is expensive but the reward is great. If the letter is not required I'll just directly enroll too. But I think it's different for int'l students.
Yes it's my first course. How about you? You needed to decide because a lot of money is at stake in curtin. But you can earn it a thousand times back. Where are you? I'm in Carlisle.

hi just to add some information regarding curtin. you have two options in curtin. first you can take the conversion which requires the nmbwa letter and this will take 1 year using your student visa and you can work up to 20 hours per week. its better if you are already in oz under pr or citizen status you dont need to process a student visa. if you dont have letter from nmbwa you can still enrol in curtin you will take up bsn which is hor 2 years they have few requirements than conversion. it is also under student visa which you can work up to 20 hor per week for 2 years. both are expensive. however if you take conversion its cheaper and after 1 year you will become oz rn although some schools and hospitals offer the so called bp which you will be oz rn fr just 10 weeks. on the other hand if you are decided to take the bsn course for 2 years, if you are successful you will be oz rn after 2 years and also you can apply for pr after 2 years of studying in oz.. hey people in perth is nurses still in demand there? because i knew few people who finished bp and conversion in perth but until now they cant find employer for them to have a work permit meaning after conversion or bp still they cant find a job as rn. thanks a lot..
Port hedland is 2000 kms away from Perth. It's just red desert in there. Are your relatives on the mining industry? There's plenty of money over there you may want to ask for support from them. Hehe... Are you done with your vaccines?
