Verb (abbreviation for verb) visa difficulty
In terms of visas, the officials of the two countries support the export of their own educational resources and spare no effort to guide international students to study in their own countries. In particular, Australia has also launched an electronic visa system, which has greatly accelerated the visa approval process. As long as you meet the visa requirements, the probability of being refused a visa is relatively low, whether you are studying in the UK or Australia. ?
