Organise a Monash-approved caregiver service

Organise a Monash-approved caregiver service to act as your carer in Australia. (You must meet all the costs of this service). All staff of caregiver services and adults providing Homestay accommodation to international students under the age of 18 are required to provide Monash annually with a current Police check and a Working With Children check.

Step 1 Contact and make appropriate arrangements with a Monash University approved caregiver service.
Step 2 Complete the Under 18 care arrangements form (new students) (pdf 134kb).
Step 3 Download (or complete form sent to you in under 18 package) the 'Parental/guardian authorisation for under age access' form (pdf 100kb), have your parents or guardian sign the form and provide the form to Monash University International Recruitment Services with your acceptance and accommodation and welfare documents.
Step 4 Complete International Recruitment Services Acceptance form (pdf 318kb) and provide payment.
Step 5 Send the completed and appropriately signed forms to Monash University International Recruitment Services office.
Step 6 Receive the signed Education Provider 'Confirmation of Appropriate Accommodation/Welfare' (CAAW) form and your 'electronic Confirmation of Enrolment' (eCOE) from Monash University International Recruitment Services.

The eCOE and CAAW will be issued after the required deposit and acceptance documents have been received and Monash has made a decision to approve the arrangements.
Step 6 Apply for your student visa, submitting required documentation (including eCOE and CAAW) to the Department of Immigration and Citizenship.
