    What are the cheapest courses for student visa?

     

     
    We recommend you take the course that will be beneficial for your future career and self-development rather than determining your courses based solely on price. But generally speaking, a business course at a vocational level will give you theoretical business knowledge with an understanding of your everyday business transactions happening around you. A business course price is usually priced around $6,000 per year with the ability to pay it by $500 monthly installments. Note that also sometimes we can secure some cheaper options based on the time of enrolment and other promotional factors.
