Q&A with Emma and Ben who currently live in Sydney, Australia

As part of our Q&A series, Study Online Australia had the pleasure of speaking to Emma and Ben, who recently moved to Australia from the UK.

They are currently living in Sydney on a student visa with Emma studying in Bondi. 

We spoke to the couple about their decision to move to Australia and for their top tips on studying down under.

What inspired you to apply for a student visa?

We decided to study so that we could broaden our knowledge. We hope that this will eventually help us to work our way up the career ladder. We also really wanted to extend our time here in Australia and studying is a great way to do so. 

How did Study Online Australia help you to find the right course?

Study Online Australia Director Pavla Hannan made everything really easy for us. There is nothing worse than visa stress and she took all of that away.

​She took the time to go through each course option and helped us to work out which was the best choice for us!

How did you find the student visa process?

The process was easy from start to finish. Pavla asks you for the relevant information when it’s needed which makes the whole process run smoothly. She tells you when each payment date is due in advance and breaks everything down for you. 

What advice would you give to readers dreaming of studying down under?

Relax and let people help you to find the right course. It doesn't have to be stressful.
