10      Overseas students becoming permanent visa holders

(1)    If an overseas student becomes a permanent visa holder after arriving in Australia, the person ceases to be an overseas student, and is to be treated as a domestic student, if the HES Act, or a legislative instrument under the HES Act, so requires.

(2)    However, the person must, before the census date of the first course in the semester, session or trimester in which the person is enrolled, provide proof to the University that the person has become a permanent visa holder to be eligible to be treated as a domestic student for that semester, session or trimester.

(3)    Also, if the continued entitlement of an overseas student to stay in Australia, or to enter and stay in Australia, is subject to any limitation as to time imposed by law on the census date for a semester, session or trimester, the person remains an overseas student for that semester, session or trimester.
