For me,it took 8 days from the philippines and almost 3 weeks from uae and qatar.. I think you don't need to wait for the results to send the application,just attach the reference page which was sent to you and they'll be the one to verify the results..[emoji4]

Hi thanks! Have u receive your LEtter of eligibility from AhPRA? thanks. How long dis you wait?

Hello everyone! Just like to inform you that I already got my LOE in less than a month (25 days to be exact)! To everyone who keeps asking and asking what are the steps, things needed etc., try reading or studying the thread from first page up to the end (that's what I did) because all the answers are here! Long way to go but I am eyeing for ETEA September/October slot. God is great indeed.

Their tuition is very expensive that's why students are hesitant. And now they are closing.

MCIE is not closing... they offer other courses, it's just the registration with AHPRA that is about to expire. The registered institution with AHPRA is Wimmera Health Care Group. MCIE was the one who took care of the lecture part for the IRON and was the one who interviewed incoming students. The tuition fee was not expensive when I did mine, other institutions had higher fees. They are actually very considerate regarding payment of tuition fee as well.

Hello dear colleagues! May I ask what are the things you consider/ed in choosing a school for your bridging program? I'm currently waiting for AHPRA's decision regarding my application but I already tried contacting few schools in melbourne already. Thank you!

First and foremost, the school should fall under the approved programs of study by AHPRA. Pls see link. Next, you may want to consider the school's location if you prefer any. You may have family or friends you can stay with during the course of your BP. Duration is also important, this will be the deciding factor for your visa application and ofcourse, your future plans. Lastly, the tuition fees, this I need not elaborate. :)
