Plan for Pacific Access Category eligibility.

Somewhere that will still be there.
Ballot-based residence routes and international study are different decisions. For families from Kiribati, the hope may be to a permanent, safe place for a family whose home is under pressure. We explain the study pathway separately, without blurring eligibility or promising an outcome.
Admission support or student visa submission
Participating education providers may pay Sorena a commission after an eligible student enrols and begins study. A US$200 + GST account-opening fee applies. Government and third-party costs are separate.
