Adelaide, the capital of South Australia, is known for its festivals, wine regions and planned city centre. With lower living costs than the big cities and a relaxed pace, it is a comfortable city for students.
Ask NGGlobal's advisers about the current language school options in Adelaide. English programs at Adelaide's universities are the most common options.
In Adelaide you can book short courses of 1-2 weeks. On an intensive program, one English level usually takes 8-12 weeks. Reaching the IELTS score Australian universities ask for usually needs a 6-12 month plan, depending on your starting level.
The biggest factor in the price is the length of your booking: the weekly fee drops noticeably for bookings of 12 weeks or more. Besides tuition, budget for items such as the registration fee, materials and OSHC health cover for a student visa. NGGlobal students can take advantage of the schools' seasonal offers.
At most language schools courses start every Monday, though some programs have set start dates. For long programs that require a student visa, we recommend applying at least 3 months ahead.
For a student visa (subclass 500) for long-term language study, you need the school's CoE, OSHC health cover, proof of funds and statements showing you are a genuine student. Applications are made online, with an appointment at an authorised visa centre for biometrics.
Student visa holders may work up to 48 hours per fortnight, and cafés, restaurants, retail and hospitality are where students most often find jobs. Your work conditions are stated on your visa, so check them before starting a job.
