Re: Student Visa
 

Bro....from wat i know......about 1 month to process.......and the 'Agent's' fee is about $6-8k.This is for 6 months visa.Pls note this is only a rough guide.:)

Re: Student Visa
 

just curious $6-$8k (as in SGD or RMB) just to apply for study english in our shore.:eek:

Re: Student Visa
 

Bro....its SGD $6-8K;)

Re: Student Visa
 

application for student visa is ard 1 month.

if go thru agents, cost varies, starting from SGD4500 (inclusive of 3 months' sch fees, insurance,medical checkup,etc)

if you are sponsoring the application, costs will be below SGD700 (registration fees, insurance, application fees, medical checkup, etc)

would advise to go thru agent, if the girl is here for something other than study and accompanying you...

Wow that is going to be very EX. I guess the $6-$8k does not included the school fee right?

Re: Student Visa
 

How much will the school fee cost them per month?

Re: Student Visa
 

Was told that nowdays Student Visa is getting harder to apply.

Re: Student Visa
 

School fee could be in the range of 400-700 per mth.

Im nt very sure abt d market of it now, but for what i knw frm some PRC students, its quite ex actually, it range frm SGD6k-12k depending d duration of d course n see which sch or language sch oso. Usually is 1-2yrs. Processing will take abt 1-2mths. Requirements of his/her personal, parents n educational particulars all will b needed n considered by d sch. He/she can go directly to d sch to apply n can save some 'middle-man' fees

Re: Student Visa
 

i heard it is harder to apply nowadays also.

Brother, if you want to save money and skip the agent fee, just go directly to any private school and speak to their sales staffs. Just need to tell them you have a potential student from XXX country and wants to study language. Then they will do everything for you. You can even tell them to give you a 'recommendation fee' which can sometimes be up to 15% of the course fees. Helps you save alot.

The processing fees charged by the school is normally between $600-$1k. The school fees is normally about $1200-$1600 per semester (3 months). Normally, they will want you to study 6 months. So, all in all, you spend about less than $4k for a 6 months course. Ask them for a 'recommendation fee' and you'll save a couple of hundreds. Hope it helps. ;)

Bro,

I got a PRC friend, she just went to renew her student visa, however after she went to ICA twice, they declined her application. She does not really know the reason why as she got difficulty understanding the officer, but she felt that it might because of her lousy English even after study a year here.

Now she was asked to leave the country after a month, so is there any way to help on the situation? Any solution that can help her to extend her student visa.

Thank in advance for the advice.
