Send them an email first about your interest in their course and they will reply with details about enrollment.

After they have received and evaluated your application, they will send you an acceptance letter which contains further details on what you should do next.

I submitted my application together with the required documents. See this link: Entry Program for Internationally Qualified Nurses (EPIQ) | Australian College of Nursing

Do they still interview incoming students for the program? Anyway, I'll drop them an enquiry email tonight. Thanks paul_rn!

Hmm.. It is just as what your RO has said. You need an affidavit for your name change. He needs a legal declaration (an affidavit) from you stating that you have changed your name from (your previous name) to (your present name), which in your case, due to marriage.

Better ask your RO regarding your concern so that everything will be clear.

I have emailed him, I have yet to receive a reply. I was just wondering about the affidavit since marriage certificate is already an enough evidence of name change. Thanks for your reply.Hopefully he will reconsider

Hi. I cannot really say which school because the availability of slots change day by day. In my opinion, it is best to send enquiries to schools you are interested in.

There shouldn't be any prob if you were able to include all the info that they need on your COEs. Job description must also be included.
