SVP is a term referring to "streamlined visa processing". This means that your university is mainly responsible for taking care of your financial details etc. So, by the time you apply for the visa DIBP doesn't have to go through lengthy verification's. When you apply though SVP, your assessment level is set to 1. Each country has its own assessment level set by the DIBP which determines the risk factor of that particular country. Assessment level 1 means that there is lowest risk of you coming to Australia and thus the decision time is greatly decreased and hence you are granted the visa much quicker.
Now, this doesn't means you will always get a decision in 20 - 30 days through SVP. AHC is extremely unpredictable in this regard and can take upto 4 months even under SVP. So in my understanding, when they say that each SVP candidate has assessment level 1 regardless of their country, the lie. I would say that if you are in Pakistan, more often than not, you are lucky to get faster decision time under SVP.
If you have any questionable study gaps in your study timeline, you're most likely to get an interview call. Prepare for it. Otherwise, just pray for the best. Your university seems to have a good reputation. Hopefully, you'll get your visa on time iA
