today in this video let's talk about what's the right process for you to choose the right
University for Masters or Bachelors here in Australia without any further Ado let's get
started I have personally come to study my masters but you might be here to study Bachelors right so
the first thing that you need to decide is whether you would like to move to Australia to pursue your
bachelor's or Masters if you ask me there is no definitive answer right for me I thought let me
study my bachelor's back in India then I would have some knowledge and based on that expertise
or based on that field of study I would go ahead and pursue my masters that's my way of I would
like to go to disclaimer before we even go ahead with this video I am not a professional right
so please do not make any decisions based on this video always consult a professional before taking
any decision this video is just for informative and educational purposes only you have made this
decision of whether it is is all Masters The Next Step that you are supposed to do is whether you
satisfy the eligibility criteria for the student visa of Australia or no one of the most important
eligibility criteria that you must satisfy is you have to be less than 20 years old when you
have finished your year 12. so make sure you satisfied this eligibility criteria another
thing that you have to keep in mind is you need to meet the language requirements yeah every
university has got different requirements and we all have a couple of examinations that you
can take in order to meet these requirements for example we have IELTS we have PT we have
TOEFL as well so I have personally given IELTS when I initially moved to Australia
um every University just like how I mentioned has got different requirements uh you have to
understand what is the base requirement for me what I've decided was if I get seven bands each
and all of the uh skills in IELTS it's easy for me to get into any University however let's say
for example if you think I would like to get six bands each then that gets trickier because
not all universities accept these kind of scores I believe universities accept minimum 6.5 so if you
are getting seven each or eight each then you are in the safest place there are other few criteria
in order for you to meet your student visa requirement but before that I would like to talk
about choosing the right course now this is how I have chosen the right course and I believe this
would be the formula for you you have to consider the commonality between what was your background
what's the future scope and what is your interest if any of the field goes into the commonality of
all these three that's the right course that you can choose for me I have chosen ICT masters of ICT
so my background was electronics and communication engineering so ICT is pretty much networking so it
is part of it there is an amazing scope for that so obviously that also fit and networking was one
of my interests I really loved networking so when this particular course fit into all of the three
blocks that's when I've chosen that okay this is the right course that I have to go ahead with the
reason why I say you need to fit all these three blocks is let's say for example let's talk about
background let's say you have done your masters of computer science and if you are planning to switch
your career and going to nursing it becomes really difficult for you to get your visa until an unless
your sop explains why you would want to have this shift and why only when you're moving to Australia
another block that you have is future scope you are going to pay Hefty amounts of fees in order
to study Masters or Bachelors in Australia and you are going to invest a lot of your time and
efforts and when you start your course it has to be fruitful for you because you're spending your
time energy and money in this particular course the next block is interest without any interest
you might drop or fail in couple of units and what you need to remember is when you fail in
a unit or in a subject you're supposed to pay that money for that subject again and study which means
you have no interest but you're paying more and more money you are going to be devastated so
make sure you have interest there's a future scope and you have similar background when
you're studying awesome so you have now chosen a course as well and now the next thing what you
need to choose is regional or Metropolitan there are equal amounts of pros and cons of
living and Regional and living in Metropolitan I personally chose Metropolitan because there
are way more opportunities way more people that you can connect to and then way more social life
but if you are focused on your settlement and you think okay getting into Regional is going
to give me extra five points it's easy for my you know PR journey and all of that if you think
not go ahead for research if you have some of your friends family back in retail and they say okay
it's worth coming to Regional then go ahead and choose that decision but please be very careful
when you are taking this decision because it is really it does make a lot of difference now if
you want to check which area is reasonable and which area is Metropolitan I'm going to put link
down in the description box so go ahead and check that link you just have to include the postcode
um I believe State and that's where you will have list of regional areas a list of metropolitan
areas whilst Regional or Metropolitan is done that decision has been taken you have
to choose which state are you going to live in Victoria New South Wales Queensland which
state are you going to live in because each state again has its own pros and cons and
um if you look in Sydney you will have more opportunities Melbourne life is amazing I
mean if you stay in Victoria it's amazing again if you live in Adelaide which is South Australia it's
more quieter and it's more peaceful there if you live in Queensland that's more happening again the
less than Melbourne though so you have to choose which state are you going to live in and once
that is done you have to list down what are the possible universities that you can get into now
when you are selecting the list of universities you have to check if your course is available if
you you have to check also if the fees is viable you have to also check if the sub units or the
curriculum the course curriculum fits into what you already learned or what you're interested
in though the course is same in different universities sometimes the course curriculum
changes so which is why you have to get into University website check the course curriculum
and that's when you will be able to differentiate so once you have list of universities you apply
and you get responses that's when you shortlist the right amount of universities and when you
do this you have to take great feedback from known people Facebook groups of that University
maybe contact any content Traders maybe like me someone else who has studied in that University
get as much information as possible that's when you choose the right University and here's the
process that I have followed and I believe this is the right process for you to follow as well and
trust me this is the most important decision so do not take it for granted I hope this video was
