    Mga 7-8k yung medical. No additional payment naman kahit madaming kung ano ano after. I suggest na magmedical na kayo now para alam niyo na rin kung may sakit kayo or wala.

    Anyone applied a Student Permit from Philippines?

    Hello. I suggest you take an upfront medical exam first para di na sayang yung pera mo sa visa application. Kasi malalaman mo na on the first day of exam kung okay ka na in one day, or you need 3 months pa. :) (Gawin niyo na po ngayon yung medical exam! :D) For the visa application, 2 months...

    Anyone applied a Student Permit from Philippines?

    I know about that possibility. But: No symptoms and I passed the sputum test. The doctor in St Luke's was not sure whether I have Active TB, but he put it either way even if he was not sure!! It was proven that I did not have it because the doctor at the embassy passed me in the medical exam...

    If you can do the medical in other countries, the better! Very high chance of being delayed in St Luke's esp if you have at the very least minor problems with your lungs. Got delayed for 3 months + probably 6 months You can read my experience in their extension clinic: wondersuite.blogspot.com
