Hello. I am a bachelor of physiotherapy from India with 1 year experience. I have been offered a place in Cambrian college in advance diploma in physical fitness and leisure management. My profile is as follows:

10th – 90%
12th – 92%
Bachelor’s – 75%
Ielts – 7.5

What are the chances of my visa. Will the advance diploma course be a reason for the visa rejection, since I am already a graduate.
Also, Would it be practical to wait a year to apply to Universities for a master’s degree?

High Risk for rejection - Private College
Medium Risk - College
Low Risk - University

You have completed bachelor, well. Now please let me know that the Advance Diploma is a post graduation program or UG program?

If it is post graduation program then your profile is good (academic basis), but if it is UG program then there is a high risk of rejection.

If post graduation then visa possibility will depend on your academic background as well as sponsorship and other factors.
