Extending your stay
If you do not have a 'No Further Stay' condition on your current student visa, you may be able to apply for another visa to extend your stay in Australia for one of the following reasons:
Graduation or Holiday
If your Student visa is about to expire and you wish to attend your graduation ceremony or have a holiday in Australia, you may be eligible for a Tourist visa (Subclass 676).
General Skilled Migration
If you have recently completed your studies at the University, you may be eligible to apply for a General Skilled Migration visa. As part of the Final Year, What's Next? program, International Student Services (ISS) runs information sessions which include an overview of the Skilled Migration Program.
The Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC) usually organises the Australia Needs Skills Expo which provided students with comprehensive information on visas and employment. You will receive updated information on such information sessions through the fortnightly International Student Newsletter.
