I am your name born on date of birth, son of father name and mother name and a

permanent resident of your full address. I am hardworking, optimistic, caring

and understanding by nature with a strong ability to work with people as a team. So, I
decided to go abroad for further study after many research and career-oriented classes.
My family has always supported me morally and financially since my childhood till now and
I feel very lucky to have them being next to me for supporting me for my further
education in Australia as well.
Academic Background
Regarding my academic qualification, I have completed my SLC (School Leaving
Certificate) in 2011 A.D. from school name securing academic % with First
Division. Along with that, I achieved my 10+2 certificate in Management faculty
from institution name with an overall percentage of academic % conducted by
Higher Secondary Education Board (HSEB) of Nepal in the year 2013. Similarly, I
completed my graduate degree from institution name under the affiliation of
Pokhara University with ***out of 4.00 GPA in the year 2017 in the month of
September. Although I have completed my Bachelor in September 2017 I got my
certificate in February because in Nepal there is always a difference in the
issuance of the certificate during this waiting period I took the training for
Advance Office Application till February. Because of the delay in the result
publication and others’ drawback I decided to go abroad study and took the
IELTS class for three months. In order to fill in the language criteria for any
university, I appeared for IELTS on 23rd June 2018 scoring 6 in Listening, 6.5 in
Reading, 5.0 in Writing and 5.5 in Speaking (score sheet is enclosed). After getting the
IELTS result I visited different authorized agents and seminars for detailed counseling. On
mid of August, I do send an application for the Kaplan Business School. Due to relatively
lower marks in writing and speaking, I need to study an English course (ELICOS) for two
and a half months and then go for my regular courses. After getting the offer letter I
started to prepare the financial document as per the requirement and it took me around
two months to get the documentation complete and get approval from college. On the
date October 28 I got my GTE approved.
I was always anxious about accounting and calculations. As per my desire and interest, I
was clear to develop my career in Professional Accounting. Hence, I have decided to
obtain an international degree and experience highly qualitative education to pursue my
knowledge in the field of Professional Accounting.
Profile
Apart from academic qualification, I also took active participation in different locality level
social activities. Many times I engaged in local afforestation and sanitation programs. I too
involved in voluntary activities on different occasions. During my Bachelor level education,
I was one of the active members of SQC (Student’s Quality Circle). Also, I was associated
with the PIC (Prime Innovative Club) for 2 years during my college. I too involved myself
in organizing different school events and programs. This displays skills of organization,
time-management, and leadership and also gives me a feeling of success when I see that
event come to fruition.
Reasons for Choosing Australia for Higher Studies
In the present world, among many study destinations, the popularity of Australia is
immensely increasing among international students, due to some of the better aspects of
the Australian Education System. If I talk about myself, honestly, the first and foremost
reason for choosing Australia for my further education is that the degree provided by
Australian education providers under AQF is globally recognized. Furthermore, Australia is
an English speaking country, where international students like me, are less likely to face
communication problems. I thoroughly believe that Australian education is based on the
practical approach with the use of technically sophisticated equipment which is very
necessary for every student. Australian education system practices modern and practical
teaching and learning methods. It assists students in innovative and brainstorming
experience by providing a unique education and learning environment. It also caters to
the needs of new generation youths like me who prefer the practical and pragmatic style
of teaching and learning.
Australia also offers a wide range of courses. Because of this, Australia has been the most
popular international student’s destination. It has 43 globally renowned universities that
offer a wide range of courses. This helps students to choose their preferred course and
university which then prevents compromising in course selection due to unavailability of
preferred course. Australian Government makes an annual investment of about 200
million on international scholarships which is far more than other countries and it is the
direct way to invite international students full of support. Moreover, Australia has a low
crime rate and strict gun control laws providing a safe and sound environment for
international students.
Another factor that captured my mind in Australia is the Education Services for Overseas
Student (ESOS) Act which ensures that overseas students have a safe, enjoyable and
rewarding study place in Australia. The ESOS Act framework protects the rights of
international students studying in Australia including the right to receive, before enrolling,
current and accurate information about courses, fees, modes of study and other
information from the institution and institution’s agent. Australia also protects the tuition
fees of international students through the Tuition Protection Service (TPS). The TPS
assists international students whose education providers are unable to fully deliver their
course of study and ensures that international students are either able to complete their
studies by transferring in another course or with another education provider or they
receive a refund of their unspent tuition fees from their education providers. Similarly, the
Australian government has given a golden opportunity to international students by giving
them the opportunity to work in a related field after completing their respective degrees.
This Post Study Work (PSW) further enhance the career of students and give them an
internationally recognized work experience from which they can be easily hired in a
competitive market.
I also checked the website of Australian
government www.border.gov.au, www.studyinaustralia.gov.au, www.autralianuniversities.com.au and
studied about the education system of Australia, universities, visa policies and conditions
Why not the USA/UK/Canada?
I always dreamt to continue my higher studies from a foreign country. Then my personal
research got initiated. The obvious choices of countries were the US, UK, Australia,
Canada and European Countries like Germany and Norway. Then I started comparing
among these countries and finally chose Australia for its globally recognized education in a
safe environment with reasonable entry-level requirements and lower living costs. In the
USA the entry-level requirements are tough and to get into a good university with
scholarship a student needs to sit for competitive exams like GMAT which is often a time-
consuming process from preparation to securing the required scores. In comparison to the
United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom, Australia has a low tuition fee and less
expensive living cost. Also, the incessant alteration in immigration protocol has made me
aware not to choose the UK for further studies as it may hamper my grades during the
study. Similarly, Canada doesn’t provide direct accession to its students whereas Australia
does. I could also have studied in my neighboring countries like India and China, but the
language barrier is the main problem is we have to speak their native language for study
purposes and daily lifestyle and due to similar cultures, the exposure that I can get is
limited.
Why not Nepal?
I could have also studied in my own home country, Nepal but the nature of mine is
introvert and to uplift myself I need exposure which I cannot get in Nepal. There is
a curriculum of Accounting in Nepal which is not specifically focused on accounting. We
have to study Master in Business Administration, Master in Business Studies or Master in
Business Management. These courses have only some parts of accounting. The course is
designed that is suitable only for Nepal. The Accounting degree in Nepal is not as per the
international standards and I wanted to get an international degree with the need and
desire to attain Professional Accounting, I started to search different websites about the
education system of different countries around the world as Professional Accounting is not
taught in my home country. Also, being graduate in Australia will help increase the
standard and in the , I will be able to create better, sustainable and highly evolved
Accounting education in my country. Many students are today willing to venture into the
field of Accounting and Management and many dreams of becoming an Accountant, which
has naturally increased the level of demand.
There are no colleges in Nepal that provide a Professional Accounting course. As we know
that Nepal is a developing country, we’ve been developing in a different sector since
forever. But still, the education system in Nepal is barely developing. Moreover, the
Nepalese degree does not have a higher value all over the world, whereas the Australian
degree has a greater value around the globe.
In comparison to other courses, this course is quite unfamiliar and fresh to Nepalese
education. So, after getting a Master in Professional Accounting(MPA), I can set a good
platform for Nepalese students willing to take up this course for their further studies.
Thereafter, having the bonus of an Australian degree will segregate my level of
qualification from other entrants and it will be the distinguishing factor for me to launch
my career in a subject as per my desire and will also allow me to work on the weaknesses
of the system in my homeland.
I have witnessed the difference between education systems abroad and in Nepal. Some of
the key differences that I have noticed are;

No nepotism and favoritism in abroad countries regarding admissions. Admissions are
done as per the student’s skills and knowledge in a particular field.
The internship is qualitative and quantitative in Australia whereas in Nepal Internship is
just a curriculum.
Education systems of abroad countries are practical rather than the academic result (in
Terms of marks only) oriented.
They have regular updates on the course or teaching methods as necessary but we have
not updated for a long period of time in Nepal.
Universities for them mean a peace zone with various knowledge but here in Nepal
students are encouraged to get involved in politics rather than getting life skills and
experience.
Students don’t have any obstacles abroad during their studies either from any kind of
unions or government but here in Nepal it’s just opposite, here no certainty.
Teaching materials, qualified teachers, library etc. are frequently observed in abroad but
here in Nepal even unqualified teachers are giving lectures, no any kinds of study
materials are provided in Universities or colleges.
Those kinds of unprofessional and uncertainty compelled me to think of abroad than
studying in Nepal. Honestly, I have been witnessing that students hardly attain university
classes and exams are not held on time. For a better academic environment as well as
practical education, I have chosen Australia for a master degree.
Reasons for choosing Sydney City.
As the largest and oldest city in Australia, Sydney is also the ideal and preferred city for
many overseas students who are attracted to its cosmopolitan and multicultural
atmosphere. While researching about Sydney, I found out that Sydney truly is a world-
class destination. It is the capital of New South Wales and the most populous city in
Australia. The diversity in culture, beliefs, food and all the amazing people from different
countries that one can Sydney is an experience that I would definitely want to gather
during my stay there. On top of that, many students enjoy the moderate climate in
Sydney which promotes healthy outdoor living throughout the year while they immerse
themselves in this beautiful, clean, modern, and safe harbor city.
The universities of Sydney are globally recognized and renowned for the excellent
atmosphere to study. Sydney also operates as a financial and commercial capital for south
Asian and eastern states, but for Australia too. Sydney offers a world-class education to a
large number of international students from over 50 countries. Also, it is the world’s
highest-rated cities in terms of quality of life according to “The economist global livability
2011”.The best universities in the world also lie here.T his city has various kinds of
infrastructures like education, communication, transportation, and security. In addition,
the beautiful architecture, the towering skyscrapers and mesmerizing attractions like
Bondi Beach, The Rocks, Sydney Harbor, Paddy’s Markets, Darling Harbor and the Blue
Mountains attracted me towards this city.
Reason for choosing Institution Name.
Once the goals and the preferred destination were set I started researching Australian
Universities and Colleges. Selecting a college was a tough task as there are so many top
universities and colleges in Australia which are suitable for achieving my goals. After some
research and suggestions from consultancies in Nepal, I stumbled upon institution name.
I choose the institution name rather than another college in Australia because I was highly
impressed with the course module of institution name, within an affordable fee structure. I
could have chosen the university rather than college but I found the institution name more
affordable for me and the module of the study was also suitable to build and shape for
future academic plans. Further, it provides highly affordable fees for a Master in
Accounting courses with a competitive and advanced course module. It has well-equipped
classrooms, library and student recreation facilities and easy access to public
transport. The location of the institute is also ideal with the accessibility of transportation
by train as it is almost next to the train station. They have highly effective students care
units, experienced and understanding teaching faculties in teaching international students
as they have been doing it for many years and have upgraded better compliance for the
students. Moreover, the institution name also provides a package course of English
language which develops my language as per the requirement level.
The overall cost for a Master’s in Accounting is $XXXXX for two years. While comparing
the fee structure of the same course with other institutes or universities, I found huge
differences. But the fee structure of the institution name is comparatively low in
comparison to others. I did some comparisons on a few colleges and other universities.

Why Accounting?
The following are some of the reasons I chose the Master of Accounting as a postgraduate
degree out of many options.
Subjects offered in MPA are more practical
I was pursuing BBA which offered theoretical knowledge about how to operate a business
and I wanted to learn about the analytical and technical part in business and with my
thorough research, I found out that units in Accounting provided both analytical, technical
skills and helped in professional development.
Great career opportunity
Not only banks but other organizations also require accountants and with the increase in
new ventures, the demand for accountants is escalating both in Australia and other parts
of the world so I thought it was a great step towards the career ladder.
Wanted professional skills in accounting
I had basic knowledge about the basic accounting but I wanted professional skills in
accounting and be able to compete in the competitive job market. Therefore, I thought
the Master of Accounting is the best course to choose from.
Pay rate is high as an Accountant
The world is full of competition and one needs to consider pay rate while choosing a path
to a career and accountants are paid a high salary.
Adopting the advancement of technology
The normal debit and credit have been replaced by new technology and I wanted
something that would teach us how to be competitive in this technological world and as
my answer to this question the Accounting course provides hands-on knowledge about
MYOB and Xero which are the famous accounting services in the world.
Internationally recognized degree
Travelling is one of my hobbies and I want to be able to get jobs even if I travel to other
parts of the world and since Accounting is an internationally recognized degree it will also
help me get a job in the international arena.
Future Plan
A Master’s degree in accounting opens the doors to job and career opportunities in a
number of fields. All business ventures and organizations have a need for professional
accountants. After completion of my study, I will be returning back to my home country
and working in the potential fields of employment including Bank, project management,
data analyst and business analysis. Master in Accounting opens doors for me to work in
senior management roles and I can build myself a top-notch career. I shall also gain
relevant practical experience and skills in order to perfectly implement my education into
effect. I intend to apply for the potential employment profiles of an accountant financial
manager, auditing manager, financial analyst, legal financial adviser in a different
organization like Chaudhary Group, Unilever, Surya Nepal Pvt. Ltd, NGOs, INGO’s and
even in different banking and financial sectors such as Nabil Bank, Standard Chartered
Bank, Nepal Rastra Bank and so on. After completion of a master’s degree, I will be
applying for PSW. The Post Study Work (PSW) visa allows graduates to work in Australia
temporarily after they finish their studies. After the completion of the Master’s degree, I
expect to get the PSW as it will strengthen my knowledge regarding the concerned field. It
offers extended options for working in Australia to eligible graduates of a higher education
degree. Students get two years of PSW visa which will help me to acquire international
working experience and exposure in Australia. It will help me to implement the theoretical
knowledge learned into practical experiences. It will provide real work experience as well
as will give me the opportunity to enhance my skills related to accounting, organizational
and management practices. In the two 2 years of PSW visa, I am planning to work in
different institutions and companies as well as banking institutions namely Telstra,
Woolworths, Silver young, Macquarie Bank, AMP Bank Ltd. and so on. In case if I am not
able to achieve the PSW option, I have planned to return back to my own country and will
execute and explore hereby with the knowledge acquired in a two-year master’s degree.
Returns on Investment:
After the completion of Master Degree course from where I can get very good salary which
will be sufficient for my future needs as well as I can save some money for my earnings
and in the leisure time I can work at another sector so that I can earn more than
NRS.80000 to 85000 per months which is very huge amount for Nepal which guarantees
better return of my investment with quality lifestyle. I am confident that the income will
be more than enough and I can quickly get the value of my academic degree within a few
years.
Above all the experience of growing into a better and self-sufficient individual by living in
a progressive place like Australia while gaining the education of a lifetime to enforce into
the betterment of my career in Nepal far outweighs the expenses. The experience will
reward me with valuable knowledge and transform me into a well-equipped, driven and
ethical work and reward me with satisfaction, high standard living, recognition and respect
in my society. Moreover, it helps turn all my dreams, passion and interest in working for
the improvement of the commercial sector of Nepal into reality. Through better
networking, career choice and skills gained at Institution name I can easily return all the
investment for my course and living cost within some years.
I sincerely hope that I qualify all the requirements for admission into your Accounting
program and that my application is favorably received by the admission committee.
Reasons to Return to the home country.
I share a very close bond and relationship with my parents and their enormous support
and high level of motivation have been the major factor in my life. They have always been
there for me through my thick or thin and play a major role in my life to be a motivated
and career-oriented person who drives me towards better work, dedication and interest in
fulfilling all projects I undertake. Being the elder child I have immense responsibility
towards my family and want to ensure that they are provided with all the luxury, security
and care in their later phase of life.
Since no matter how high someone reaches, they should never forget their root, I have a
strong feeling of true nationalism and responsibility an individual bear towards building a
nation, giving back to the society and becoming a responsible, skilled and resourceful
member in own country I will forever be deeply attached to my homeland. This will also
motivate me to work vigorously towards completing all my educational dreams with
excellence to return back to unite with them. And with the international and globally
accredited degree from Australian University, it will not be a difficult task for me to get
jobs in the different commercial sectors of Nepal am also emotionally attached to the
cultures and festivals of Nepal and never skipped one in my life. I will not be able to live
away from my family during the time of a long period.
