My career is my passion and it holds my fullest devotion, dedication and commitment. I belong to the field
management which had been the dream I had and long term desire that has lingered in me for a long while.
And finally when I got into this I could give nothing from me but the best. I am Sandeep , son of
Ambar Bahadur and Sumtra Devi , permanent resident of ITAHARI-8 SUBMETROPOLITAN
CITY, SUNSARI, NEPAL. I would like to humble request you to provide me with the
opportunity to continue my further study in Advance Diploma in Accounting, with one of the best college
in Australia, [Australia College of Technology].
I had completed my tenth grade and got my School Leaving Certificate (SLC) in year 2012 securing first
division (62%) from Koshi ST. James R.H.S School. As far as I complete my Higher Secondary (+2) level
in year 2016 from Kathmandu Bernhardt Higher Secondary School in Management faculty with first
division (71.30%). For further study in Australia I took my IELTS test on 4th August 2016 where I secured
not less than 5.5 overall 5.5. I have two years gaps in 2013-2014. I was studying +2 levels in science
faculty as my parents and relatives were wanted to study Science. I was not matured enough to take
decision myself and I follow my parent’s decision. However, later on I came to know that I am not good in
science and my interest is not Science than I moved to Management education and completed with good
percentage. Now my family is also happy with my decision and progress as I performed well in
Management.
I did my research world’s best education destination on Countries like Australia, UK, and USA and also
visited some Websites like www.studyinaustralia.gov.au, www.border.gov.au and consultancies and got
counselling for abroad study. At last I came to conclusion that Australia is the best place for my further
study because Australia is one of the best country having ESOS (Education Service to Overseas Students)
Act 2000, and also TPS (Tuition Protection Service) which is designed to protect the rights of international
student with protection for international student’s tuition fees. Colleges and Universities in Australia offer a
wide range of course, degrees, making it easily to find a fit subject and living cost and tuition fees in
Australia is significantly lower compared to UK and USA. There is more than 200 million annual
government’s investment in international scholarship which is really attractive part and beneficial for
international students. In USA the student needs to sit for a competitive exam like SAT or ACT which
takes a lot of time. In UK the currency value is really high and there is no tuition protection service like
Australia and also UK and USA is not safe as we used to listen gun issues every day in USA. Australia is
very safe country for international students in compare with other country i.e. USA, UK. According to
global peace index 2016 Australia has been ranked as 15th in world’s safest place. I felt that in Australia I
can learn more about accounting and explore my knowledge in international level. Lots of people from
different nooks and crannies come to Australia which is going to make me easier to experience different
cultures, tradition, norms and values. Moreover, Australian college/Universities are famous for delivering
quality education on accounting and also it provides competitive education for all domestic as well as
international students to stand globally challenging competition through its high qualified instructors and
lectures that somewhat lack in my native country. Australia has special health insurance coverage for
international students called Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC). This insurance is required while
residing on student visa; this will cover unexpected sickness or any emergency care. Moreover, I would
have a globally recognized degree after the completion of my course and it would be easy for me to get
good jobs from the experience during Post Study Work after my Bachelor’s degree. I am impressed with the
system of Post Study Work, which helps me to get experience in Accounting’s field which will be much
more helpful when I will return to my nation. On the other hand with friendly and hospitable countrymen
with its low crime rate, strict guns control and stable laws and politics, international students are assured of
a safety living comfortable learning are some of the reasons for choosing Australia. There are so many
Nepalese students in different cities of Australia where I came to meet with them so that I will not fell so
far from my country and culture.
Nepal is in developing phase; modern digital education system is not well developed here. Traditional
theory based classes, limited choices in courses offered, lack of adequate infrastructures and experts
compelled me to choose Australia. The course which I prefer to study has been recently established in my
country and teachers aren’t highly experienced. Colleges won’t run effectively and uniformly. Due to this,
students are unable to obtain their degree in mentioned period. Moreover, the degree of Nepal isn’t globally
competitive. There are many colleges and universities due to the lack of advanced technologies and skilled
manpower for modern practical learning; they are not able to produce skilled manpower as per the demand
of the market. So I preferred Australia rather than Nepal to make my good career. Also, it’s been 12 years I
studies in Nepal and now would like to study in different environment where I will have an opportunity to
interact with different people from different nations while studying abroad.
After deciding to study in Australia now the turn was to select the education provider which fits to me
according to intended course, place availability, skill development and quality of education. First of all, I
did a detailed research about the colleges in Australia. I searched some institutes for providing course with
affordable tuition fees, trustworthy education degree and history of international students. Through research
and suggestion from my well-wisher lead me to the confirmation that Australian College of Technology
(ACT) would be the institute I would be applying for completing my Advance Diploma of Accounting
course in the crowd of huge numbers of college & Universities. The institute lies near town hall i.e it is
linked with railway stations and bus stops which become easy for students regarding transportation. The
fees of Australian College Technology were affordable for me along with good infrastructure. Australian
College of Technology is highly reputed with high education standards and also it is one of the most
innovative, dynamic and richly diverse institute. Classes are generally small that will help me to interact
directly with teachers and get personal attention. Tuition fees in ACT is very competitive and affordable for
me as the fee for the course is AUD 16000 for the whole course and AUD 8000 annually as compared with
other universities and collage and also English requirement suit for me. As I researched about IT providers
at Sydney, I found TAFE NSW, SIBT, Pacific College, Holmes Institute, CSU & UOS, and Australian
College of Technology etc. I compared tuition fees, academic and English entry requirements, course
structure, and location of those providers and finally satisfied with Australian College of Technology. It
provides alternative pathways into university for further education.
In my view directly going for bachelor degree will be very difficult to understand and to compete with
domestic and international students in University. Furthermore, teaching style will be really high compare
to Nepal so to match with it we have to go through basic. As Advanced diploma is a pathway to the higher
education where I can learn about the basic and fundamental knowledge on the subject that will be helpful
for my further education. I completely understand the importance of accounting and its relevance in
modern world. I am interested in upgrading my expertise in other related subjects in addition to developing
my professional potentials. Advance Diploma in Accounting is vocational education and it provides me a
comprehensive foundation in business disciplines including marketing, information technology, economics,
business law, accounting and business studies while also emphasizing skills such as communication,
cultural awareness and ethics. It is the first step towards successful business and accounting. It will give me
a broad introduction to the industry and a range of skills relevant to working in the business sector. An
accounting qualification can be tailored to suit my particular situation and interest. Accounting course will
prepare me with the skills and knowledge to work in the accounting industry as a professional in a range of
specializations including financial management, auditing, and taxation. I am very much excited that I will
be studying different unit’s including Core and Elective units of each course. So, as I’m the student of
Management Stream it will be very beneficial for me to go ahead through the same course of line. I
Simply, doing research in modern era, we can find account subject have more scope in every sectors from
basic level to Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Chief Financial Officer(CFO). So, it is one of the guideline
for every student who wants to catch this opportunity. Accounting qualification gives me skills to be leader
in commerce and business. Accounting is known as the language of business, and as such it benefits
management in many ways. Accounting involves recording transactions and compiling them in reports.
After completing my course I will have an opportunities to work in wide range of commercial,
governmental and professional settings which includes Public Accounting, banking, stock broking,
Business consulting. I need to study courses i.e. accounting and Business decisions, accounting
fundamental management, Business Microeconomic, principle of responsible business, business
information system etc.
After completing Advance diploma of Accounting I will apply for Bachelor of Accounting in Australian
Universities where I can get credit from my Advance diploma course. It will reduce my total cost to
complete bachelor if I study through advance diploma. Getting direct admission in Universities in bachelor
degree require high IELTS score and academics percentage and also universities has big class size where I
can study in small class size in college so that I can get personal attention from teachers so I get chance to
improve my academics. Studying directly in University will cost high as most of the universities fee
structure is above 22,000 AUD per year . I can complete my 2 year advance diploma from Australian
College of Technology in just 16,000AUD so that I can complete remaining 1year to 1.5years course from
the University so that it will minimize my total cost to complete bachelor’s degree. I have planned to
complete my further Bachelor of Accounting course from Charles Darwin University (Darwin) or
Federation University as it offers affordable fees and has high reputation nationally and internationally with
best education system and also located in Sydney.
After I successfully completed my planned course from Australia, I plan to return to my country and work
for one of the leading national business firms as an Accounting Professional, capable of dealing with the
broad range of people, companies and financial situations. I expect to have a long career in this field. I hope
an international degree, great experience in abroad and my intelligence will be helpful to competitive job in
my homeland. After course completion from Australia I will have academic knowledge and will do PSW
which will increase the level of confidence, competitiveness to find out the better job. I will be back to
home country and will search for the competitive job in Nepal as well as abroad, will be given first priority
to home land if I found competitive job here in Nepal otherwise would like to do international job in Nepal
or abroad based on my degree from Australia. There are some big companies in Nepal i.e. Coca Cola,
Nepal Telecom, Chaudhary Group, Khetan Group, Sharada Group, Ncell, Nabil Bank, SBI Bank,
Slandered Charted Bank, Nepal Investment Bank where I want to work as a financial analyst and
accountant of that company with the competitive salary. In Nepal, qualified accountants are high in demand
and there are number of firms that offer jobs with good pay. Having an international degree will make me
more competent and demanding in Nepal and qualification from Australian will be my Unique Selling
Proposition to potential job providers in Nepalese market. I am confident that I will get that much skills and
knowledge from Australian degree.
Sydney is one of the world’s most livable cities and also capital of New South Wales. It is the best place in
Australia than any other cities due to its climate, friendly life style, world-class recreation, transport,
telecommunication facilities and universities. It is metropolitan city with well-planned transport and easy
communication in English with international students along with peaceful environment with wide range of
students, Sydney has cultural and religious harmony. Climate in Sydney are similar to Nepal so that will be
easier for me to sustain there during my studies and the good environment of Sydney helps students to
remain active.
I am a citizen of Nepal and I love my nation but due to some circumstances I should choose abroad study.
After completing my study, I want to return back with skills and knowledge gained over there. Then I will
try my best to implement my knowledge for my nation to upgrade my nation in the field of accounting with
my honesty and dedication. That will not only benefit my nation but also my career. Clearing speaking,
After the completion of study I must return back to my country to look after my parents, being son in my
family I do have moral duties and responsibility to make them happy as they have been supporting me in
every way and also they are proceeding towards ageing with passage of time. I have my parents, friends,
relatives, culture and traditional in short my whole world here.
My father and two sisters are sponsoring me for my entire study and my stay in Australia. As my father is a
retired Indian Army office and work as a security guard (Sudarshan Security Services Pvt. Ltd.) My two
sister one is in bank (Prime Commercial bank Pvt. Ltd.) as Technical Staff and another in Hospital
(Biratnagar Aspatal Pvt. Ltd.) as nurse. They have agreed to support all of my living and other expense
while I stay in Australia. I believe I have a strong financial support for me to study in Australia. Actually, I
myself and my parents believe that the investment on education is never wasted because the achievement of
knowledge is strong and important for a person in their lifetime. So my family is ready to invest their
incomes, shavings and property on my study because they also want me to see as a successful educated
man as a professional Accountant in future.
I would like to explain that I am a genuine student having the aim to achieve degree from Australia which
surely helps to sharpen mine skills and performances in upcoming days. Everyone have to decide their own
career path so that they can fulfill their dreams and self-satisfaction. I am aware about the visa conditions
for international students in Australia and I will follow those conditions.
Hoping for positive response
Thanking you,
Sincerely yours,
