Academic progression :
** If you have graduated from one level of study and you would like to move on to a higher level, EMGS provides you an easy channel to do so.
** New Applications include progression from one course to another upon completion.
** For example if you want to study a Diploma at a private higher education institution you need a Student Pass.
** Once you complete that Diploma and wish to progress to a Degree Course you will need to apply for a New Student Pass.
** You cannot convert the old student pass or carry on studying on a different course on the previous student pass.

** This is because the Student Pass issued contains details of the specific course you are registered on studying on a different course or at a different institution would be contrary to the terms of your Student Pass and mean you are in breach of immigration rules.
