What documents and grades do you need to study in Australia?

In Australia you apply to the university first and receive a CoE, then lodge the subclass 500 Student visa through ImmiAccount. The visa English minimum has risen to IELTS 6.0 and the financial requirement is AUD 29,710. Universities themselves usually ask for IELTS 6.5. An 11-year attestat is not equal to Australian Year 12, so a Foundation year is normally needed.

Foundation year

Australian universities run Foundation Studies for applicants arriving with an 11-year school certificate: one preparatory year, then year one of the bachelor. Foundation entry usually asks for IELTS 5.5, while the Student visa itself requires IELTS 6.0 or an accepted equivalent. The visa also needs a CoE, OSHC cover and evidence of AUD 29,710 in financial capacity.

With an Uzbek attestat (11 years)

Foundation year

This is the route itself: one year of Foundation Studies, then year one of the bachelor.
