The main reason for student visa rejection in Australia is not meeting the Genuine Student (GS) requirement. If your statement about study plans, career goals, or reasons for choosing Australia is weak or generic, authorities may doubt your true intentions.

Another common cause is insufficient or unclear financial evidence for tuition, living, and travel costs. A strong, personalized GS statement and clear financial proof are essential to avoid refusal.
