Sub: Request for study visa to pursue Masters of Business Administration course at the University of Tasmania
It gives me happiness to have obtained admission to the Masters of Business Administration course at the University of Tasmania. Now I need a student visa to visit Australia and join studies. Therefore, I am approaching you with a request to grant me one based on the following submissions.
Academic Details:
I pursued my school education at St. ….…………….. High School in……………, where I completed matriculation in 2016–2017 with a commendable score of…. For my higher secondary education, I attended …………… in ……………. with Maths, Physics and Chemistry in 2017–2019 with a score of…… Moving forward, I completed my BSc in electronics and communication technology from the Loyala Academy Degree & PG College, Hyderabad, in 2022 with an overall score of ….. CGPA.
Experience
I then joined Zest Intel Digital Solutions in May 2022 as a marketing executive intern and was with the said company until May 2023. I then left to prepare myself for the MBA programme.
Why this University?
The University of Tasmania is located at one of the most peaceful locations to acquire higher education as per international standards. It has one of the finest faculties known for their erudition and experience. The degrees conferred by the university hold value in job markets of India. Its curriculum incorporates current advances in management topics. The fees are affordable, and the quality of education is at par with what other top institutions in Melbourne & Sydney. The campus life is excellent and students can take part in various activities. They can access libraries, journals and also get to do project work with business organizations in order to apply what they have learnt.
Why Australia?
In the recent times, Australia is the first choice of students from India who wish to pursue higher education from a Developed country. Australia is economical compared to other English speaking developed countries like UK/USA. Moreover, Australia has a better climate than Canada. Another time-saving factor is that it is closer to India and it takes only a few hours of flying time to reach one’s destination. Australia is also home to people from all over the world, presenting cultural diversity from which I can learn a lot.
Financials
My mother, ……….. works as a government teacher. My father, T…………. is no more. I am the sole child. My mother will bear the entire cost of my studies and stay in Australia. She can do so since her annual income is Rs…….. In addition, we have our independent house worth Rs ……… and we also own an open plot measuring ….. square yards valued at Rs………. I do not anticipate any financial problems.
Reasons for coming back to India
As stated above, I am the only son and it is my filial obligation and duty to take care of my mother and the ancestral properties in her old age. I certainly will return to India on completion of studies and stay with her and take care of her. Ours is a traditional and orthodox family with strong ties with our relatives and in the community. I would certainly like to do something for my community, and I can do so by being present here. There are ample, high paying jobs in India for foreign educated professionals and there is no reason for me to undergo hardship in another country when I have my own house and property here in India.
Why I am not studying a similar course in India
The job market in India is quite competitive. I intend to take up a job in a large, multinational company in Hyderabad. Such companies prefer those who have professional qualifications obtained from foreign institutions and with some experience of staying abroad. Such candidates get good jobs to start with and advance rapidly. The pay is higher and one can easily recoup the cost of having studied abroad in just a couple of years. Besides, the course at Tasmania is far more advanced and international in nature.
Once I return to India I can take up jobs such as marketing manager or sales manager in a large company and then, in a couple of years, advance to becoming regional head. Career advancement becomes easy once one has studied abroad. I also feel that studying and living independently in a foreign country will help me to take on challenges and gain capabilities.
You are requested to consider and grant me the study visa so that I can start attending my classes.
