If you have withdrawn from your course or you have been excluded you may be able to arrange for a new eCOE at another institution, however there is no guarantee (by the Australian Government) that your Visa will not be affected.
Where a student has been reported (for exclusion) to the relevant department of the Australian Government and then enrols in a new course of study and a new electronic Confirmation of Enrolment Form (eCOE) has been issued (either by Monash or another provider), it is likely that student will be able to continue study in Australia without a visa interruption.
An appeal (to prevent Student Visa cancellation) may be made to the relevant department of the Australian Government. Seek professional advice immediately.
Other courses:
We cannot provide visa advice. If you have visa concerns, you can contact the Department of Home Affairs or the Study Melbourne Hub.
Information about other Institutions
