What do Sri Lankan students need to prepare for an Australian student visa in 2026?

Asked by Anonymous8 July 2026
Expert answer

Sri Lankan applicants generally have positive Australian student visa outcomes when well-prepared. Requirements: CoE from Australian institution, financial evidence (tuition + AUD $21,041 living costs + family member costs), OSHC, GTE statement showing ties to Sri Lanka and career goals, and English language results. Bank of Ceylon, Commercial Bank, and Sampath Bank statements are widely used. The majority of Sri Lankan applications are processed within 4–8 weeks. Colombo-based MARA-affiliated consultancies can assist with the full application.
