Will my multiple entry Visitor/Tourist visa be cancelled if my student visa application gets refused?

Hello 

I’m about to enter Australia on a multiple entry eVisitor (651) and intend to apply for a student visa shortly after. If my student visa application gets refused will my multiple entry eVisitor then become void/cancelled? Most people I’ve asked have said no it should be fine but just wanting to be sure.

 

Thanks in advance.

I do know that you can only hold one visa at a time.  If you get granted a new visa, your old visa becomes void.  But that's not your situation - if your student visa is refused then I don't see why your eVisitor visa would be invalidated.
