SLSNSW is NOT a CRICOS Provider
SLSNSW is not a registered Commonwealth Register of Institutions and Courses for Overseas Students (CRICOS) provider and therefore we are unable to offer courses to overseas students studying in Australia on student visas.
An overseas student is defined in Section 5 of the Education Services for Overseas Students Act 2000 as a person (whether inside or outside Australia) who holds a student visa (as defined in regulation 1.03 of the Migration Regulations 1994).
