Plan Your Arrival
Once you have been accepted to study at SAE in Australia and you have received your student visa, it's time to start planning.
WHEN TO ARRIVE
We recommend international students arrive in Australia 2-3 weeks before the course start date to settle into accommodation, familiarise with the city and prepare for orientation and study.
You are not permitted to arrive in Australia without Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC). If you arrive in Australia before your policy start date, you may be prevented from entry. If you need to arrive before your OSHC policy commences, ensure you change the start date to match your arrival.
We recommend you arrange your accommodation before you arrive in Australia, even if it is just for the first few days.
