Notes:
• “Current and future 2025 NOSCs” includes students who have commenced their study in
Australia, as well as future students who have been approved by their provider.
• “Current and future 2025 NOSCs with student visas” includes students who have commenced
their study in Australia, as well as future students who have been approved by their provider
and who have an active student visa visible in PRISMS. It is the measure used to determine if a
provider has reached the prioritisation threshold under Ministerial Direction 111.
• “Current 2025 NOSCs” includes students who have actually commenced their study in Australia.
Some of these students may be on bridging visas awaiting decisions on their student visa
application.
Ministerial Direction 111 (MD111) and Provider Indicative Allocations
Under MD111, Department of Home Affairs officials are required to accord Priority 1 – High processing
to Student visa applications made by applicants outside Australia if

• their associated provider has not reached their prioritisation threshold, or

• they meet one of the exemption criteria that provides automatic Priority 1 – High processing

A provider’s prioritisation threshold is equal to 80% of their Indicative Allocation, as measured by

Confirmations of Enrolment (CoEs) that will meet the definition of a New Overseas Student
Commencement (NOSC) once the student commences study and that has a relevant visa attached.

Visa applications associated with providers that have exceeded their prioritisation threshold will receive
Priority 2 – Standard processing (unless the student visa applicant falls within one of the exemption
categories). Provider allocation statuses are used by the Department of Education to help report on and
support the visa processing directions outlined in MD111.

Provider priority status does not affect Student visa outcomes. All student visa applications will be
considered by relevant delegated officers regardless of priority level - priority levels under MD111
affect the time taken to process an offshore student visa application. Prospective students looking to
submit an application associated with a provider at Priority 2 – Standard level processing should allow
extra time for their visa application to be considered.

Information on average processing times for Priority 1 – High and Priority 2 – Standard is available on
the Department of Home Affairs website.

All offshore student visa applications in the following exempt categories under MD111 will receive
Priority 1 – High processing regardless of Provider Allocation Status:

• School students
• Non-award sector students, including short term exchange students
• Standalone ELICOS students
• Students enrolled with a TAFE provider
• Students enrolled in Pilot Training Courses
• Students enrolled in postgraduate research courses
• Foreign Affairs Students, Defence Students and students sponsored by the Commonwealth
• Students with foreign government and state and territory government scholarships
• Students from the Pacific and Timor-Leste
• Students in certain transnational education arrangements

(MD111 provides further details on these exempt categories)

This report provides the allocation status for publicly-funded universities and other higher education
providers (including providers delivering higher education and vocational education and training).
Allocation statuses for all other vocational education and training providers are not publicly available at
this stage.

This report is expected to be updated weekly.
