The

language course or degree-related courses. The visa
is granted for the duration of study plus a month

decides to continue their study, he/she may choose
to extend their visas except in few circumstances.

3. Generally, schools do this on behalf of their
students, but students can choose to do it on
their own. Just visit the nearest Medibank Private
or their customer service centers. Submit the
application form for Medibank and the Medibank
card will be sent to the address after few weeks.
(note: students need to decide on the duration
of coverage plus they need to present a valid
passport and enrollment confirmation.)
