The rapid rise in student visa rejection rates across prominent study destinations has a major impact not just on the students, but equally on the schools and agencies handling their recruitment. Higher rejection rates have led to changes in how pre-paid student fees are managed within the sector, for example, and have placed new financial pressures on both schools and agents. It appears higher rejection rates have also contributed to some high-profile school and agency closures in recent months, which have been, partly attributed to a reliance on projected rates of visa approvals – all of which underscores how uncertainty around visa processing affects our sector and its stakeholders. In this episode, we'll take a closer look at the challenges in the visa process, such as processing delays and rejection rates, and explore their impact on educators, agents, and students. We'll also discuss insights and best practices to mitigate the risks associated with visa processing uncertainties.
