Changing Education Provider after the six-month-study in Australia

We, as an international student, might need to change the education provider if we are unsure about what we are studying at the current university or we are not keen on the current area of interest. Well, in order to do so, we need the following steps;

1. Apply the course at the new university while studying at the current one and grab the CoE from the new university.
2. Send that CoE and your personal details including passport number, full name, date of birth to the DIAC (Department of Immigration and Citizenship) via three options; facsimile, post and in person. The post address is, Department of Immigration and Citizenship, Att:// Student Session, DPO Box 9984, Sydney, NSW 2001. The facsimile number is 90324096.
3. Let the faculty at current university know about discontinuing study within the 7 days after CoE was issued.

Changing education provider before the six-month study needs some implications and needs "the letter of release" and some reasons. Importantly, the current education provider has the right to refuse to issue "the letter of release". If it's happened to be the case, we've no right to change education provider until the completion of the six-month-study.

Cheers up!

P.S. The above information applies to those who are about to change education provider under the same sectors (eg. bachelor degree to bachelor). To change the different sectors educations (eg. TAFE to PhD) needs new visa label in which a lot of documentations and financial evidents will be of further necessary steps.

Live-apart Lovers,

COULD SLEEPING UNDER DIFFERENT ROOFS BE THE SECRET TO A TRULY HAPPY, LASTING RELATIONSHIP?

Typically, it's certain types of couples who live apart. In today's society, people don't feel pressured to abide by traditional relationship set-ups. LAT is defined by " Living Apart Together" having separate addresses, being monogamous in nature and having more than a casual relationship.
The common group of LATs are couples in their 20s and 30s who feel that living with a partner wouldn't allow them to maintain their own space and identity and feel that living separately was convenient. Living apart means they spend quality time together. Consequently, many LATs claim living separately keeps the spark in their relationship because it's unrealistic for the relationship to remain in the fairytale phase. Living together forces partners to navigate the ups and downs of everyday issues. Living apart could mean you're afraid of being truly intimate.
LATs are better at negotiating relationship problems than those who live together and are usually more upfront with each others. They also have a better sex life and are less likely to have affairs.
Are there downsides? Yes, there are financial and environmental costs of running two homes, problems can occur if you're raising children. If one parent ends up being the primary carer, it can cause resentment. Also, if children don't see their parents negotiating daily duties, they may miss out on essential relationship skills. Finally, there is no relationship structure that we can guarantee will work because a relationship needs love, friendship, intimacy and flexibility. If it has all those, does it matter whether the couple lives under the same roof?

Tips : How to LAT successfully?

• SET RULES. Work out how often you'll see each other.
• CREATE BOUNDARIES. Will your relationship be monogamous or not?
• KEEP TALKING. Check that you're both happy with the situation every few months.
