I chose to study at MIC because of the connections I had with the college. My home college, Gannon University, and MIC are already in the process of building closer ties through the Arts, Education, and Theatre Programmes. As I am a theatre actor, I always appreciate the worldly opportunities that can be pursued abroad. I value studying in a different country because of all the new outlooks on things I thought I already knew!

"Curtin was my dream university since I passed my undergraduate degree. I got to know from an education fair that Curtin is ranked on the top 1% of the world's universities, which attracted me a lot. There, the English Language Bridging Course gave me an opportunity to not only improve myself on academic skills, but also it taught me how to carry out multiple tasks at a time, handling stressful situations. If you're thinking about a career in Curtin University, you are leading yourself along the right path."

"MVCC offers so many activities that helped me understand the American culture. I had the opportunity to showcase my culture through an international festival. I never thought I would meet such amazing people and have one of the best experiences of my life."

"Studying at Deakin University makes me become who I want to be."

"Wesley College is a small college with small classroom settings, where you have the ability to get to know everyone. There is a very personal feeling about Wesley itself. My experience here was great; I made some of my best friends for life."

"I chose Chichester for many reasons, one of which was the nature of the campus - being rather small, you bump into friends all the time on your travels! I also love the SIZ and Learning Centre, as they provide a fantastic wealth of books and journals for any assignment I face. The lecturers on my course are all incredibly helpful and the friends I’ve made here are second to none. In all, I’d recommend Chichester to anyone!"

“Griffith saw the potential in me. From the easy application for enrollment to the accommodation it provides are the reasons why I decided to go and study here to pursue my dream and career.”

"People often ask why am I studying business when am very much inclined to the arts and social sciences. To be honest, I ask myself that a lot too! Prior to going to SP Jain, I knew that there is a direct connection between creatives and business. Now I am convinced by the limitless possibilities of integrating my creative side with the more analytic and logical business field."

I couldn't have imagined picking a better school to complete my studies. Maryville University is like a second family to me. From the staff to the faculty and students, Maryville gives me the tools to succeed both in the classroom and outside of it. I have become a leader in this community and it is all thanks to Maryville. Maryville is where the people make the difference.

Initially I didn’t even think that I could get into university and so had given up on my childhood dream of being a marine biologist a long time ago. After attending a university fair in Singapore, I found out that I could actually pursue my dreams at Murdoch and so I worked hard and never looked back.
I love being able to learn about new topics through my course and being exposed to things that I never would have been able to see back in Singapore. As part of my course I have been able to see a range of plants and animals that I had previously only seen on National Geographic as a kid, which has been a great experience.

The International Student Buddy Program runs from Week 1 to Week 4 of Trimester, across all five campuses. New international students are matched with more experienced students (Senior Buddies) for social support meetings once a week. These sessions are designed to help ease the transition to uni life and provide a safe and comfortable environment for new international students to ask questions about Griffith, life in Australia, as well as practise

"I regularly feel like I fit in due to the city's vibrant and friendly nature. I am confident I made the right decision. Who else offers a chance to ride the hot air balloon almost every weekend? I would not want to be anywhere else."

Griffith Business School (GBS) has been ranked first in Asia-Pacific and fifth overall globally in the 2019 Corporate Knights Better World MBA Ranking.

The global result means GBS’ MBA has remained in the top-five for the second year in a row, from a field of 146 business schools around the world.

"I was born into a family of 9: my parents, my 6 siblings and I. My family relies primarily on my parents’ farming work to surive so we receive aid from the local government.
My hobbies are reading and singing. I also love traveling. I hope that in the future, when I have more money, I can travel to more places within Vietnam and overseas. My biggest strength is that, I like standing on a stage and singing songs. I am also able to easily convese with new people and I like to make new friends. My weakness is that, sometimes, I am a bit sensitive.
I don’t like instant and fatty food because it is not good for my health. Therefore I want to be a good chef and cook wholesome food for my family and I".

"I chose Viterbo because of the core values it represents. Those are the values I represent and the fact that it is a small university makes it even better. Here, you know you are surrounded by people that actually care about you and they want you to succeed."

"I had an extremely wonderful experience at Irvine Valley College. The professors and staff are all really friendly and willing to help students as much as they can. The campus is amazing and beautiful, it's not big, but that's the best advantage for students because we get more help and attention. The International Student Center is always there for me when I have a question."

"Mount Mary has given me the opportunity to grow from the introverted person I was into the outgoing and active person I am today. My classes are challenging and these challenges are what makes me a greater person."

"Before I moved to Australia, people told me 'you are going to face the hardest 6 months of your life by finding yourself in a brand-new country'. I’m glad to tell them that they were wrong the whole time. I have never found myself so at home as I do now. The interesting fact about it is not all about the university. It’s about the others who do the same thing which makes me feel comfortable by sharing the same experience."

Since completing my internship with a local Perth digital marketing agency, I have developed an interest in the field and would like to pursue a job in the digital marketing industry. Murdoch has provided me with the platform, through my internship unit, to gain hands-on experience and has really opened my eyes to this industry. This experience has been priceless and has provided me with a platform in which I know have taken a step in the right direction.
