“MASTER OF BUSINESS (ACCOUNTING)“
Source: KIEC Student (THA21ANI)
I am Applicant Name, a young, energetic, dedicated and determined student targeting my aim with a full sense of responsibility. I am a resident of Ilam, Mechi, Nepal and was born on 7th March 19XX as a first child to my parents. My family has always been an inspiration to me and guided me along the path of my career. Having been blessed with such a supportive family, I have decided to seek further education and a career in the field of accounting and pursue my dream of holding an international degree by getting enrolled in University name, Sydney, Australia to study Masters in Business (Accounting).
I have completed my schooling from Montessori Secondary School, Ilam in the year 20XX with XX%. After that, I joined an intermediate level in Arniko Awasiya Higher Secondary School in the science stream. Later, I could not grow interested in the subject and realized that I am not a science person. However, I gave my best and completed an intermediate level in 20XX securing XX%. Then I changed my faculty and joined BBA with major finance in Zenith International College, affiliated to Purbanchal University and completed the program in 20XX with XX CGPA. During the BBA program that consists of four years course with a total of eight semesters, I got an opportunity to work as an intern in Himalayan Bank Limited, Biratnagar, as a partial fulfillment and requirement of the course for the period of 2 months. The internship helped me to have a close insight into the practical knowledge of the workplace. As soon as I completed the bachelor level, I prepared for IELTS and took the IELTS exam on 1st February 20XX and scored an overall band score of 7.5 with listening 8.5, reading 8.5, writing 6 and speaking 6.
There are varied reasons that influenced me to choose Australia as my education destination. Besides its friendly, laid-back nature and an excellent education system, the fact that schools and employees all over the world recognize degrees from Australian schools encouraged me to choose Australia. Australia is currently the third most popular destination for international students, behind the US and UK. The Australian education system is carefully regulated by the Australian government in order to maintain a high standard of education. Even though Australia is among the country with the highest living standard in the world, living expenses and tuition costs are considerably lower here in comparison to the US and UK. Australia also provides international students the facility to work part-time while they study, allowing them to make up for their living costs, which I consider is the most significant privilege to international students. One of the most appealing aspects of the country for international students is the country’s impressive technology and research resources of which students can take advantage of, as well as the availability of a large number of choices of universities and schools, which provide qualitative, practical and future-oriented education. My reasons for not choosing other countries like the USA, UK and Canada are quite clear. In US the tuition fee is very costly, even some Americans choose to study in other countries because of the sky-high tuition rates and most of the US colleges require GRE/GMAT scores for admission, which are quite competitive and time-consuming. Whereas, in Canada to get used to and adjusted in its cold weather can be a bit of a problem for international students. Likewise, in the UK the cost of living is relatively higher as well as public transport becomes quite pricey for international students. In contrast, Australia is in every way a suitable destination for education, either be it in terms of tuition fees, climate or the cost of living. The specification of the standards for education qualification is done via the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF). Australia follows ESOS (Education Services for Overseas Student) Act 2000 which ensures that students have access to tuition assurance which also includes an element like tuition protection services where the fees I have collected are safe and secured. So, everything here is legalized and secured.
Initially, I had set my mind to study post-graduation in accounting in Nepal. There are also some good universities in my home country, but not all of these Nepalese universities have international recognition. In addition, universities over here in Nepal provide limited courses like MBS and MBA and these courses are not flexible enough. On top of that, the Nepalese education system and its universities lack adequate human and material resources for skill development. The curriculum is not updated and students are taught the same old curriculum for years. The pace of development of the teaching and learning system in Nepal is relatively low compared to global development. Though theoretical knowledge is emphasized upon, there is a lack of scope, area, and required resources for its application in practical settings and the platform for personal exposure is confined. Moreover, problems like population explosion, non-participation of the private sector, scarcity of qualified manpower, political instability, inefficient educational management system and poor implementation of policies and programs, etc. are plaguing the educational system of Nepal. Because of all these impact reasons I gave up on the thought of continuing further education in Nepal.
After carrying out a lot of research about different cities in Australia I decided to choose NSW, Sydney as a destination for my further study. Sydney is Australia’s oldest and largest city built around a huge harbor and hosts many tourist attractions as well as a number of beaches, bays and a couple of national parks. It has a humid subtropical climate, shifting from mild and cold in winter to warm and hot in summer, with no extreme seasonal difference as the weather is moderated by proximity to the ocean.
From extensive research, I came to conclude that receiving an International Degree in Master of Business (Accounting) from University name, Sydney, Australia will surely help me in achieving my goals. The course is designed in such a manner that it touches and gives depth knowledge in an advanced international specialization. University name has the expertise and experience to help students reach their goals. Furthermore, quality education, teaching methods as well as experienced lecturers at university name will certainly help me to sharpen my knowledge and skills. To be very honest, the best part is we will not get all the above-mentioned combinations of course of Master of Business Accounting at any institution in Nepal or elsewhere in the country. University name has campuses across Melbourne’s Central and Western Suburbs. university name, Sydney is located in Level 1, 160-166 Sussex Street, Sydney. University name also provides courses in various fields like Arts, Education, Law and Justice, Business, Engineering and Science, Sports and Exercise, Computers and IT etc. University name is a dual-sector tertiary institution, which provides courses in both higher education and Technical and Further Education (TAFE).

Because of all these achievements University name is recognized as the most competitive and internationally accepted University. University name emphasizes research that is relevant to the community, industry, and government – both nationally and internationally. University name is truly a university with diverse features and internationally accepted university. So, by researching and analyzing various factors like course contents, tuition fees, location and duration, international recognition, I finally got convinced myself in choosing University name, for my higher education.
Beside University name, I also did several types of research for other colleges providing a master’s degree in the accounting field. I did a comparison of tuition fees, course structures, location and entry requirements by different education providers of Australia. Most universities like University name, University name and University name also provide Master’s Program in Accounting but were amazed when comparing the fee structure of these universities with University name. University name is very much affordable with respect to the above-mentioned universities. University name annual fee is AUD $ XXXXX per year while the University name estimated annual fee is AUD $ XXXXX. Likewise, the estimated annual fee of University name is AUD $ XXXXX, whereas the University name estimated annual tuition fee is AUD $ XXXXX. Similarly talking about the course structure, the course of University name is far better and is focused not only on accounting specialization but also on providing knowledge about other business courses too which other mentioned universities do not provide. Therefore, studying at University name can be very beneficial in both academic and financial wise.
