Why Canberra Students Trust Right and Associates for Education & PR

When international students think of studying in Australia, Sydney or Melbourne often come to mind first. However, those focused on a high-quality education, a world-class lifestyle, and a genuine pathway to Permanent Residency (PR) quickly discover that Canberra, the nation's capital, is the smartest choice.

Canberra is a magnet for the world's brightest minds, boasting:

• World-Class Education: Home to Australia's top-ranked university, The Australian National University (ANU), and the highly-regarded University of Canberra (UC).
• Highest Quality of Life & Safety: Consistently ranked as one of the world's most liveable and safest cities, with the lowest crime rate in Australia.
• Career Advantage: Canberra has the highest average income and the lowest unemployment rate in the country, with strong job opportunities in government, technology, defence, and research.
• The PR Accelerator: Crucially, Canberra is classified as a Regional Area for migration purposes. This designation provides eligible international graduates with:
  
  • Extra Post-Study Work Rights: Graduates can access an additional one to two years on their Post-Study Work Visa (Subclass 485).
  • Favourable ACT Nomination: The ACT offers specific nomination programs (like the Canberra Matrix) for skilled migration visas (Subclass 190 and 491), which are highly advantageous for local graduates.

Choosing to study in Canberra is a strategic move—and that requires a strategic partner.

Many education consultants stop at securing your university admission and student visa. At Right and Associates, we believe your educational journey and your migration journey are inseparable. Our service model is designed to maximize your chances of success from the moment you choose your course until you hold your PR visa.

🎓 Step 1: Strategic Course Selection for PR

We don't just enroll you in any course; we enroll you in the right course. Our experienced education counsellors work hand-in-hand with our MARA-Registered Migration Agents to ensure your chosen field of study is on the relevant Skilled Occupation List (SOL) and aligns perfectly with the ACT's specific skills needs.

• We Assess: Your academic history, career goals, and the most current in-demand occupations in the ACT.
• We Guide: You toward institutions and courses that offer the best practical experience and PR point-scoring potential.

📝 Step 2: Flawless Visa and GTE Preparation

The Australian student visa (Subclass 500) requires meticulous evidence, particularly the Genuine Temporary Entrant (GTE) requirement. A minor error can lead to months of delays or even refusal.

• Risk Mitigation: Our team has over 25 years of experience and has successfully guided over 15,000 students globally. We know exactly what evidence the Department of Home Affairs is looking for.
• End-to-End Support: From Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) to preparing complex financial and statement-of-purpose documents, we handle the entire process with precision.

🇦🇺 Step 3: Seamless Transition to Migration

After graduation, the transition to a Post-Study Work Visa (485) and eventually Skilled Migration (190/491) is where our Canberra local expertise truly shines.

We are not just an offshore agency with a mailbox in Australia; we are Right and Associates, your local Canberra experts. We offer:

• Local Onshore Support: Our Canberra office provides walk-in assistance for course changes, visa extensions, and personal advice right where you live.
• MARA Accreditation: All migration advice is provided ethically and legally by MARA-registered agents, ensuring you receive the highest standard of service.
• Proven Success: Our testimonials speak for themselves—students consistently praise our genuine, helpful, and efficient staff who simplify the complex study-to-PR journey.
