Enrolment Information

From first enquiry to first class — here’s exactly how it works.

Enrolling with Evantaa Institute is straightforward. This page walks you through every step — what to prepare, what to expect at each stage, and how long it takes. If you have a question at any point, our admissions team is ready to help.

Your enrolment journey

At a glance

Step 1 — Choose your course

Browse our courses at evantaa.edu.au/our-courses. Each course page includes entry requirements, English proficiency requirements, CRICOS-registered duration, fees and unit details.

• Trades courses: Certificate III and Certificate IV programs in Carpentry, Painting & Decorating, Bricklaying, Cabinet Making, Wall & Floor Tiling, Solid Plastering, and Building & Construction.
• Business courses: Diploma of Business, Advanced Diploma of Business, and Graduate Diploma of Management (Learning) (domestic students only).

English requirements vary by course — check the individual course page for the minimum IELTS, PTE or TOEFL score required for the course you’re interested in.

Step 2 — Prepare your documents

Before you apply, gather the following documents. Incomplete applications will be held until all required documents are received.

Required for all applicants

• Passport — colour copy of the photo/bio page.
• Academic transcripts — Year 10, Year 12 or equivalent qualification completed in your home country or Australia, reflecting an AQF-comparable level of education.
• English proficiency test results — IELTS, PTE Academic or TOEFL iBT. Minimum scores vary by course; see individual course pages.
• OSHC — Overseas Student Health Cover confirmation. Must be arranged before your CoE is issued.
• Visa copy — a copy of your current student visa. Exception: Australian Permanent Residents and Citizens are not required to provide a visa copy.
• Unique Student Identifier (USI) — include it in your application or provide it at orientation. Your USI must be submitted before your course commences.

Step 3 — Submit your application

You can apply in three ways:

Option 1 — Apply directly online

Complete the Apply Now form on our website at evantaa.edu.au. Upload all required documents and submit. Our admissions team will review your application and respond within 1–2 business days if all documents are in order.

Option 2 — Apply by email

Email your completed application form and supporting documents to admissions@evantaa.edu.au. Our team will acknowledge receipt and advise if any further information is required.

Option 3 — Apply through an education agent

You may apply through one of Evantaa Institute’s registered education agents. A list of our registered agents is available at evantaa.edu.au/list-of-agents.

If you are working with an agent who is not yet on our registered list, your agent can apply to become an Evantaa registered agent by completing the Education Agent Application Form on our website. Once approved, they can submit your application on your behalf.

Step 4 — Receive your offer letter

Once your application is received with all required documents, our admissions team will review it and issue an offer letter within 1–2 business days.

Conditional offer letter

If any documents are missing or require verification, we will issue a Conditional Offer Letter and request the outstanding documents. Your application progresses to a formal offer once all conditions are met — the timeline depends on how quickly you provide the requested information.

Unconditional offer letter

If all documents are in order and you meet all entry requirements, we will issue an Unconditional Offer Letter.

Your offer letter includes:

• The course you have been offered and any conditions on your enrolment
• An itemised list of all tuition and non-tuition fees
• Your payment schedule
• Refund conditions and your rights as a student
• Privacy disclosure information

Step 5 — Accept your offer and pay your initial deposit

To confirm your place, you need to:

• Sign and return your Student Agreement — this must be completed before Evantaa Institute can accept any fees from you.
• Pay your initial deposit (Payment 1) as specified in your offer letter. The amount and due date are listed in your payment schedule.
• Send your signed Student Agreement and payment receipt to the email address your offer letter was sent from, or to accounts@evantaa.edu.au.
• Payment assistance: if you need help with payment methods or international bank transfers, contact accounts@evantaa.edu.au — our accounts team will guide you through it.

If you submitted a Conditional Offer, also include any outstanding documents requested in your offer email at this stage.

Step 6 — Receive your Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE)

Once we have received and verified your signed Student Agreement, payment receipt and any outstanding documents, we will issue your Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE) within 1–2 business days.

Your CoE is an official document issued through PRISMS (the Australian Government’s international student management system). It’s a key document for your student visa application or extension — keep it safe.

• Payment verification: we verify all payments against our bank records before issuing your CoE. Please allow time for international transfers to clear.
• New CoE: if your course start date changes for any reason, a new CoE will be issued.

Step 7 — Apply for or extend your student visa

If you are applying for an Australian Student Visa (Subclass 500), you’ll use your CoE as part of your visa application through ImmiAccount at immi.homeaffairs.gov.au.

If you are already in Australia on a student visa and transferring to Evantaa Institute, you may need to extend your visa or apply for a new one. Contact the Department of Home Affairs for guidance — Evantaa Institute staff cannot provide immigration advice.

• Department of Home Affairs: homeaffairs.gov.au · Phone: 131 881 (in Australia)
• Registered migration agents: for personalised visa advice, consult a registered migration agent at mara.gov.au

Step 8 — Attend orientation

Orientation is mandatory and is held face-to-face at your campus before your first class. You’ll receive an orientation email from us approximately two weeks before your start date — check your inbox and your junk folder.

What happens at orientation

• Personal details & pre-enrolment self-assessment: you’ll complete the Evantaa Personal Detail & Pre-Enrolment Self Assessment form.
• Education agent feedback: you’ll complete a Student Feedback Form regarding your education agent.
• LLN assessment: you’ll complete the Language, Literacy and Numeracy (LLN) and LLND Digital Robot assessment — this helps us understand your support needs and is a requirement of enrolment.
• Induction presentation: a trainer and staff member walk you through student services, campus facilities, policies, expectations, your timetable, and your rights and responsibilities.
• Campus tour: you’ll be shown around the campus — workshops, classrooms, student areas and key facilities.

What to bring to orientation

• Original passport
• Your USI (if not already submitted)
• Your OSHC membership card or confirmation details
• Your student ID (if already issued)
• A laptop or tablet — you’ll use it during class from day one
• A pen

Credit Transfer and Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)

If you have relevant prior study or work experience, you may be able to reduce the time needed to complete your qualification.

• Credit Transfer (CT): if you’ve already completed a unit equivalent to one in your Evantaa course, you may receive credit without re-assessment. Provide your official transcript and qualification details at the time of application.
• Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL): if you have relevant industry experience, you may apply for RPL. You’ll provide evidence of your skills and knowledge — employment records, work samples, references or photographs — assessed against the unit requirements.

Both Credit Transfer and RPL applications should be submitted at the time of enrolment. Contact admissions@evantaa.edu.au to discuss your eligibility before applying.
