Nepal Moves Up! Student Visas Now Way Easier

Updates

Why does this matter? It means less paperwork, fewer financial docs, and a way smoother visa process. Before this, Nepal was at Level 3, which made getting a student visa a bit of a headache. Now, things just got way easier and faster.

So if you’ve been dreaming about studying in Australia, this is your sign to go for it!
