UTS and Me

• I applied in US (University of Dayton, Wayne State University, University of California, University of Arlington and many other state universities) in the first place but did not receive any I-20 form from there. So I decided to move to Australia. • I received offer letters from Western Sydney University, CQU, ECU and UTS and I finally decided to go to UTS. • I decided to go to UTS because I liked the course structure I wanted to pursue. Though UTS does not come under G-08 but its reputation is equivalent to a G-08 university. • You have to apply through the website of the university you are interested in by uploading the required documents (school certificates, passport, Bachelor degree certificates, and/ or qualification certificates, work experience if you have any, co-curricular/ extracurricular activities certificates) • You must have an eligible English Language Test Score (IELTS/PTE). You could also submit your GMAT/GRE score if they ask. The minimum IELTS score required was 5.5 (in 2018). • After submitting all the documents they will send you a conditional offer letter where you have to accept it (if you are ready to go ahead) and pay the fees of first semester to the University to receive Confirmation of Enrolment (COE) • You can only apply for an Australian student visa if you have a COE, just an offer letter won’t work. • As long as your all the required documents are ready, you should not have any challenges.  If your visa gets delayed for some reason, you must inform your University regarding the same as soon as possible. This happened with me. • I applied for the 2018 Feb intake.You should prepare yourself at least 6 months prior to your intake for all the documents as it depends on which University and course you are applying for. If you are opting for an overseas studies loan then you might have to extend as it depends on when your loan is going to be approved. • In Australia, the student visa policy keeps on changing. So the students need to keep themselves up to date on what is going on. Accordingly, they can plan for their admission intake....Read More

I was most interested in what I regard as the top three universities in Sydney, which are the University of Sydney, University of New South Wales and also the University of Technology Sydney. I do not have high academic regard for ACU or Macquarie so I was aiming for one of the three I have listed. I attended the open days for all universities and fell in love with Sydney University and had my heart set on going there. I went to the UNSW open day and didn't like UNSW at all. I didn't like the campus, I just had a weird feeling about it, it was awkward to get to and I didn't know many people going there. I was not as interested in going to UTS as I thought the whole campus was the one tower building, which is quite ugly. But then when I attended the open day, I liked the feel of the campus, having had the opportunity to walk around and see what the campus was. When it came time to choose my university through UAC and which courses I was applying for, I realised that my results probably would not lend to getting into the Business degree at Sydney Uni, as I was initially applying for a double degree in business and international studies, which had a very high ATAR score at USYD. When the results were released, I had gotten into UTS and received an early entry offer from UNSW for a similar course. I chose UTS as I did not like UNSW and didn?t get the results I needed for USYD....Read More

UTS ranks among the top universities along with its great infrastructure and top-notch professors.
