I've sent them several emails asking for update but they are not replying. I will call them tom. :)

You paid the tuition fee but you still dont have the letter of offer yet? Give them a ring. :)

maybe Ill just wait for them to release offer letters since i dont have a choice. they cant give it to me not until ANMAC will approve they're accreditation. Hope it will be real soon cos Im tired of waiting already. anyway, did you call them? how was your application to ETEA?

Hello everyone, I just passed the NLE last July 2012, and I'm planning to have my IELTS exam on November.. I obviously don't have any hospital experience yet but I wanted to pursue further education in Australia.. Are they still accepting students without any experience? How long will I need to study there? Would it be 2 years? Hoping for a reply thank you.. :)

It must be 3 years bachelor of nursing. However, to most universities, they have credit prior learning system which you can apply for to get a year or two less depending on the credit points you will get.. And then to most, tuition fees for international students vary from 25K to 29K AUD annually.. :)

I had my interview today and they said I passed. They told me that someone will be in touch with me regarding the procedure. I guess I'm also waiting for the letter of offer. I don't know which intake is available yet though.

@danceinstructor....

Hi im currently filling out UniSa application online , having bit of a problem with the sencondary school field asking for when to sit he completion exam, i have long completed secodary school, what to do, pretty please. Thanks so much...

Sorry my school is LTU not UniSA but I have some friends who went to UniSA and took the ARNTP. I think that part is when you finished/graduated from your secondary school.

Thanks! Luckily, I received the visa after 1 week of lodgement, same time with the medical.

Yup, I was also noted of the increase and I have not paid it yet myself. :)

It would be a great help of you ca refer me with the accommodation. Thanks again!

I have asked my friend in Bendigo who was among the first batch of the IRON program of LTU regarding your accommodation issue and she said it's still too early to look for one. According to her, she cannot guarantee if the place she'll refer you at present will still be available by January. It is best to look in the middle of December. When are you planning to leave for Aussie by the way?

Thank you sir/mam :) I'd probably get focused on passing my IELTS first and foremost, it's kinda difficult these days, as what my instructor have said.. :) And then try my luck at UTS :)
