"I chose UCD Michael Smurfit Graduate Business School for the action-learning programme, the triple crown accreditation, and the location in Dublin city, Ireland’s capital city."

"I received offers from other fantastic universities, but I ultimately chose UCD due to the robust international program, superlative sports facilities, and graduate employability rankings. (UCD has been ranked No. 1 for Graduate Employability in Ireland by QS World Rankings for five consecutive years)."

"I am super excited to be at UCD because of its inclusive environment, the unique courses offered for my programme which I didn’t find in other schools, and the exposure to global career opportunities and learning from other international students."

"I’d say that Western Sydney University was the most cost-effective out of Sydney’s biggest unis (UTS, Sydney University, the University of New South Wales and Western Sydney). Among these, in terms of price, it was the best option."

"Before coming to KOTO, I self researched different job areas and I found that hospitality is suitable for me. By serving customers, I will be able to gain patience and confidence in communication. The moment I walked into KOTO, I knew a new chapter was waiting for me. My job now is to seize all the opportunities I will be given. I keep my heart full of hope, that the future is going to be bright and I now have a second family to lean on."

“My postgraduate course structure allows for flexibility and for the potential to do work experience. Most of my units have applicable real life case studies and most of the course work is very hands on. I also stayed on campus for my first year and it allowed me to meet fellow international students new to Perth and Curtin, so we helped each other settle in!”
