whySTUDYhere

"I wanted to study in a smaller city and live with locals to get to know the New Zealand culture and to improve my English. People here are really friendly and open-minded. Nelson has been a good base for me to travel around the rest of New Zealand as well as it is situated centrally and you can reach both islands easily."

"University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point is a fantastic university! Students have incredible opportunities to pursue their dreams and succeed! Since I came here, I continually have a sense of security and belonging as an international student."

I thoroughly enjoy my life as a Western Sydney University student. I love the events organized by Campus Life and being involved in student clubs, which helps me to relax and be social.

Griffith bridged the gap between the classroom and industry

"At Irvine Valley College, I was able to get involved in Student Life as the President of the International Club.  It was a great experience and I made many new friends!"

"What I like more about the teachers here is that they are always ready to help you out, even outside school hours."

Griffith has several support services that have been able to help me in many ways. Orientation activities were really useful for me in my first year, and helped me to get a hang of university life in a quick and easy manner. The academics have also been incredibly helpful, providing me with tips and tricks to get ahead in courses and do well. The student admin is another important support service that has been really vital to me, and they've been able to sort out a range of issues that I've encountered.

"RRU helped me get a real-world learning experience. The multicultural and amazingly experienced cohort, brilliant faculty, research trips all along with fun not only helped me understand tourism from a global perspective but also gave me an opportunity to contribute to the academic world through my assignments and my final thesis. The experience at RRU was invaluable and I feel overwhelmingly lucky to have been a part of this academic journey."

I chose to study the Bachelor of Business because I have always been passionate about numbers and the way share markets and money are managed. To me, understanding how to analyse and predict situations with the use of numbers is one of the most integral parts of today’s society. Learning how to manage and interpret accounts and financial statements for companies is one of my favourite parts about my degree.

I did a lot of research before joining Curtin University. It is well-known for Engineering and it is easy to get around. I went to Open Day at Curtin and had been given a tour here and I decided straight away that this is my university. What I love about Curtin University is the facilities. During exams and assignments, I could stay in the library late and there are so many technology programs and software available for me to do my work in a high standard quality. My advice to future students are always do your research carefully, whether to choose courses or subjects for your studies. Make yourself well-organised and plan ahead of time for any scholarships available. There are so many offerings on campus so make sure you prepare to meet deadlines or allow yourself to enjoy campus life.

"COD gives you the freedom to take control of your choices. COD has given me the opportunity to study STEM classes at my own pace. This campus has opened my eyes to the world of higher learning."

"I was born into a family of 8 and life has really been a struggle for us. I have worked since I was very young but I have never given up on my pursuit of an education. The one thing that I have always been grateful for is that my family always share unconditional love with each other. That is why I have a strong motivation to live, work and learn for a better life for my family.
From the very first moment I walked into KOTO, I felt that everyone is very warm, genuine and welcoming. The elder brothers and sisters really showed their care for the new members, as if we have been a part of the family for a long time".

I chose to study at Griffith because of the offered classes and the closeness to the beautiful beach and all the national parks.

The support services are really good. Those times when I needed something, I got help immediately. What I enjoy most about living in Queensland, Australia is the natural diversity. On one side there are beautiful beaches, on the other side you can find impressive parks with a lot of different animals.

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."

I was chosen as a Gold Coast Mayor's Student Ambassador representing PhD students at Griffith. I learnt so much about the city and the Queensland Government and participated in leadership workshops. I met people from all over the world, improved my English and self-confidence throughout the opportunity.

“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.”

The various services provided by Griffith have helped me in improving my communication skills and interpersonal skills, and meeting new people and interacting with them through various activities happening on campus.

"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."
