CREDIT TRANSFERS*

Credit transfer will be awarded for qualifications or a statement of attainment that may include units that are not a direct match but align with the content from the units within the course that the student is applying for. For example, some qualifications or statements of attainments may contain units that are from an older version of a Training Package but the content is considered equivalent. Students should indicate on the enrolment form that they are seeking course credit and provide certified copies of qualifications, including a record of results or a statement of attainment.

STUDENT VISA INFORMATION

To be eligible for a student visa application, students must first be accepted for full-time study with MTI.

Prior to enrolling it is important that students have a sound understanding of the visa regulation for their country of origin. Information about studying in Australia and Australian Student Visa application can be found at DHA's website www.homeaffairs.gov.au or contact your local Australian Embassy/Consulate.
