Of course it's a big decision to decide to study abroad, but the study method in Australia is better because it's less boring and more interactive. You have more assignments spread out in the semester, so it's not all about the final exam. You have more opportunities to do better and to deal with the pressure.

The university also offers placements. You can do as many placements as you want if you're doing a degree that allows you to choose your electives. Also, in my specific degree, it's hands-on from the first year. So that's why I will be super prepared to go out into the real world once I'm done.

At SIBT, I learned how to work in English, how to write in English. I had to present something in English and it helps me at University because I will not be that confident in class if I was not in SIBT before.

I really like to study at SIBT because I had all the support I needed. The staff is really cool, really helpful. I used the support when I was struggling to get in a unit, to get me a tutor, or to find me a student who was in the same unit as me who could help me with everything.

From my point of view and for me, what I will say about SIBT is that it helped me to be good at school, to get confidence again, to not give up my studies. So, I would say to everyone who's struggling at school, or not really good, that SIBT will help you. 

I studied at Sydney Institute of Business and Technology in the engineering field. I hope to complete Mechanical Engineering at Western Sydney University in the future and graduate with high marks and with honors.

I've made friends from Australia. It's just getting better for me. When I get stuck on something, I just email the admin team or someone who's responsible for the sponsored students. I really appreciate the huge effort made by them. They help me straight away when I get stuck at something.

I didn't find any problem here when I came to Australia and when I used to study in Saudi Arabia online because you're in the CBD and you got lots of things to do, and it's a really amazing place.

In my opinion, they changed the concept of studying from boredom to enthusiasm. It's just the vibes here, the positive vibes, the teacher creating something apart from the class, so it's a really good experience. 

If I'm moving countries, I want to be in a place that can help me grow also, so Western Sydney was the University I chose. Because of that I could see how much people are there for each other, and the staff is always there for the students if you need any help.

I've heard a lot of great things about this University and it was one of the top ranked in my Bachelor of Health Sciences also, so that was the particular reason that I chose this University. With Western Sydney, I would pop one question, I would get a really good response back.

As an international student, I didn't know anyone here. There was one mentor I met and they were going out of their way to help me out, to introduce me to new friends, to introduce me to the staff. And that made a lot of difference.

I love this thing about this campus is that it's literally in the middle of the city. It's very convenient.

I chose Bachelor of Health Science then my major as Public Health because I wanted to give something back to the community and really be there for someone some day. The best part of this degree is I'm actually getting ready for the business world, and it's preparing me for that.

As a student, this University gives you a lot of opportunities to work as a volunteer, as a student helper, as student ambassador, and volunteering in any number and amount of events. That really has helped me a lot to come across and be who I am today.
