Admission Experience

  • Australia has amazing diversity and climate when it comes to immigrants. Kaplan Business School is known for its well-written course material and low fees which is a main concern for the students. Adelaide is a good place to study as it is also the most livable city in the world.
  • Since everything was in my favour, I also wanted to see if there would be career opportunities for me in their business school and that is when I was introduced to the Internship program they offer. It is very helpful and something that every student needs.

Class Schedule

7

You can select the class you want to attend as there are 3 classes available (Morning, Afternoon & Evening) You can select the time and days as per your convenience. The availability of a chosen class depends upon how many students have enrolled in the class.

Faculty

8

Average of 15 students per teacher. The business analytics faculty is very experienced, as most of the teachers have practical experience of being in that field. They help students to understand the real-world scenario that helps in job seeking.

Campus Life

8

The university does not have a sports ground or a library, but there is a computer lab and quiet spaces dedicated for students to study. There are various festivals selected, keeping in mind the diverse cultural backgrounds of students.

Part Time Jobs

Indian students prefer working as food delivery drivers, kitchen hands in restaurants, etc. The start pay for anyone in Australia is $25. It is difficult to get a job, but if you apply every day and put in your hard work, you will get one.

The campus has opportunities for Internships, but there are few off-campus opportunities, and it needs a lot of handwork. There are demands for skill-based jobs, so I recommend someone from India to learn skills like cooking, construction or others that help you get a job.

Placement

7

Almost 30% of students find a job after their studies. The average salary can be anywhere between 60k AUD to 90k AUD per year. The lowest salary can be $50k, and the highest can be $100k+. Students can find jobs through websites like SEEK & Indeed.

Accommodation

Off Campus
5

I searched online on the property dealer's website and real estate pages. It becomes difficult when you don't have a rental history to get a place to recommend getting help from people who have already lived here for many years. If you don't know anyone, then look for on-campus options which are expensive but easy to get.
