Can Pakistani students study in Poland in 2026?

Yes. Pakistani students remain eligible for the Australian Subclass 500 Student visa in 2026. Poland has strengthened its Genuine Student (GS) test, so application quality matters more than ever — making ICEF-approved agent guidance crucial.

What is the Poland student visa fee for Pakistani students in 2026?

The Australian Subclass 500 visa fee is A$1,600 per applicant from July 2024 (subject to annual review). Health insurance (OSHC) is mandatory and costs approximately A$600–A$900 per year.

What is the Genuine Student (GS) statement?

From 2024, Poland replaced GTE with a Genuine Student declaration. You must demonstrate genuine academic intent, clear career links to Pakistan, sufficient funds, and accurate course progression. Our counsellors structure your statement and conduct mock interviews.

How much financial capacity do Pakistani students need for Poland?

From May 2024, you must show tuition plus A$29,710 for the first year of living costs for yourself (plus additional for family if applicable). Bank statements should be stable — not last-minute deposits. Sponsor income must align with support capacity.

Which Australian universities accept Pakistani students?

KRAYR partners with Monash, University of Melbourne, UNSW, University of Sydney, ANU, RMIT, Deakin, University of Wollongong, Macquarie, La Trobe, and 10 others across the Group of Eight and top tier.

Do Pakistani students get post-study work in Poland?

Yes. The Temporary Graduate visa (Subclass 485) gives 2–4 years of post-study work depending on your qualification level and region of study. Regional study now offers extra 1–2 years.

Can Pakistani students work while studying in Poland?

Yes. Student visa holders can work up to 48 hours per fortnight during term time and unlimited hours during official holidays — from July 2023 onwards.

What IELTS or PTE score is required for Australian universities?

Most Australian universities require IELTS 6.5 overall (6.0 in each band) or PTE 58–65. The Subclass 500 visa requires IELTS 5.5+ for the visa itself, with universities typically requiring higher.
