Reasons For Choosing Australia:
Australia lured me from three important aspects. First, Comparing to other countries like
United States of America (USA), United Kingdom (UK) and other European Countries living
“xpenses and tuition fees are considerably lower for the overseas students. The average tuition
fees are reasonable. The living cost for international student, as estimated by Department of
Border Protection and Immigration is only AUD 19,830 per year, which is comparably lower in
Nepalese currency in comparison to UK, USA and other European countries.
Secondly, the Australian Education is recognized all over the globe. Therefore, it implies that
the qualification | will receive from Australian education provider will Meet international
standard. My certificates will be valued in any foreign countries or mostly in my own country.
Thirdly, language requirement is easy to fulfl. | have already accomplished successful IELTs
result: 1am competent at speaking and writing English language. If | had to choose European
country, other than English, | should invest extra
'e and money in learning their country
Specific language like Norwegian, Belgium, Germany, Dutch, wherever I choose to Go. It will bean extra expenditure of money and time and it won't prove useful in longer term as well
because after course completion, my objective is to come back and do something in my own
country.
These three reasons were enough to persuade me to apply to Australia than any other
Countries in the world. But there were other more reasons, which boosted my confidence over
my decision to apply to Australian Education Provider. The umbrella Policies like AQF, ESOS
Acts, TPS etc have been developed to protect and maintain the education quality framework
and tuition fees protection of overseas students. Therefore studying in Australia is a secured
investment decision. The climate, multicultural environment, post study working visa
opportunities etc were an extra factors pushing me to choose Australia for abroad studies. As
shown in the data presented by Australian Government site inaustralia.gov,
Australia's the best comfortable place for students to come and learn from,
Moreover, the opportunity that an international student gets in Australia is unlimited. They can
work part time limited to 40 hours fortnightly, which actually gives an opportunity to get a
valuable work experience and learn the way Australians do. After graduation, they can also get
{ull time working right up to 2 years and this is the key for me. After graduating, | wish to find a
relevant work experience and gets hands on to what | have learned during my study.
‘The point is, Australia seems to be the best destination to go for my further education at the
moment,
‘Reasons for choosing AIT:
It is well known that Austr
is home to numerous leading education providers, be it
universities or colleges. The problem arises when we have a lot of options equally attractive
but we are left with only one option to choose one best alternative. It was a great dilemma for
me as well. With respect to my chosen course, which is, Diploma leading to Bachelor of
