Application Support

Institution research, document checklist, communication sequence, application timing and offer-condition review.

Ongoing Learner Management

Consulting and guidance do not guarantee admission, visa outcomes, credit transfer, scholarship decisions, appeal outcomes, academic progression, employment or final institutional decisions. Where visa, legal or regulated financial advice is needed, learners should consult an appropriately regulated professional.
Immigration-related matters

OTC does not provide immigration advice. For UK immigration-related matters, learners and families are signposted to Citizens Advice for free and confidential advice, or to another appropriately authorised adviser where a case requires specialist regulated support.

For Australia or NSW-related visa, migration or legal matters, OTC signposts learners to Legal Aid NSW / LawAccess NSW, Community Legal Centres NSW, or another appropriately registered migration or legal professional.
