What Students Say?
Likes
- The infrastructure and friendly student support there really makes easy for us to interact with the staff and the attendance policy is also not that strict as we can take the classes online. Most of the seminars are also available virtually and lectures are always recorded live.
Dislikes
- The location for me its like little bit far from the melbourne CBD but nothing to worry as we can get a train or tramp as well.Even they have a express bus shuttle service from box hill station to deakin university.
I had to submit my short 300 words SoP and one long detailed SoP, and a detailed CV as well. The main reason was the ranking of this university is quite good as compared to other university and the fee structure is also affordable compared to group of eight. Also the main highlight was the course i took was accredited from Australian computer society(ACS). Overall its good but the course is challenging because i do not have background of IT and the university experience is top notch like the facilities are quite good. The lecture theatre, library, medical centre, Gym are quite good. There are many cafes and vending machine in the premises where you can get variety of food ranging from continental to indian.
Course Curriculum
The course is more like Information Technology based rather than Business studies, its like a combination of both and we do have guest lecture from different industries like we had one guest lecture in one of the module name value of information where one of the government officer based on employment sector shared his knowledge on government employment.
Exams
I just did my IELTS test and i did not take any other standardized test such as GMAT. My IELTS score was 7.5 in aggregate. Yes, I had a GTE interview which was like face to face while one of the university representative was there in kathmandu for education fair. There i had my short interview like session. It was just normal question to get to know me more.
Placement
We do have work integrated learning sort of things, but i am not much aware on these thing as i am in my first trimester.
Internship
No
Fees
$79,600
Scholarship
No, i did not applied for scholarship.
Faculty
Well the faculty ratio is 67.4 according to Top Universities website. The staff are quite helpful and the study advisor and student support are quite active to help us if we have any issues related to anything.
Campus Life
The infrastructure is top- notch and the extra curricular activities are also there if you like to participate. There’s a student body name DUSA which mostly organizes different events on campus. They are mostly like for the student where we can be the member by paying the minimal fees and we can get lots of benefits from that.
Hostel
There’s a in-house accommodation provided by the university but it gets filled quickly. You must apply beforehand to get that. I also tried to apply for that but it was like fully booked. You can also check for accommodation sites such as deakinhouse.me where you will find the listing of nearby property for rent.
