Submission review

Acceptance notification
If your application is successful, you will receive your offer letter approximately 4-6 weeks after the application deadline. The offer will be sent to you via Smartsheet Automation.
Please follow the instructions provided in the offer letter to accept your offer. To complete your acceptance, you will also need to purchase the Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC). Instructions for purchasing the OSHC will be included in the offer letter, and you must complete this by the deadline stated in the letter.
Purchase Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC)
Students travelling to Australia are required by Australian visa regulations to purchase Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC). The duration of your OSHC must align with the duration of your Australian student visa and/or expected arrival and departure dates. Usually, a student visa will end one month after the course completion date. If your OSHC policy ends prior to this date, then your student visa will also reflect this shorter end date.
Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE)
Approximately 2 weeks after you provide proof of your OSHC purchase, you will receive your Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE) document via your student email. You will need the CoE to apply for your student visa (subclass 500, non-award sector).
Apply for your student visa
You are solely responsible for applying for your student visa (subclass 500, non-award sector) to study in Australia. Obtaining an Australian student visa is relatively straightforward. You may only begin your student visa application once you have the CoE document, which is linked to your visa application. You can save your application and continue it later if needed.
The Student Services team at Monash University, Indonesia will offer recommendations for visa agencies to assist you with this process.
Attend pre - departure briefing
The final step is to attend the pre-departure briefing, which will be announced by the Student Services team. To further prepare for your studies in Australia, we encourage you to read the Monash Abroad Survival Kit.
