I was born on your date of birth as a son of father’s name and mother’s name. I have recently completed a bachelor’s degree in hotel management and planning  to study a master’s degree in hospitality management in Australia. I gave my PTE exam on 26th  July and I got overall of 57, listening 59, speaking 61, reading 57 and writing 54.

GAP EXPLANATION 

I worked in a company name from Starting and end date. After that I started my IELTS classes  and gave my IELTS examination on 5th may 2018(Score Sheet attached), as the Score was not  sufficient then I started PTE classes. Then, recently I gave my PTE exam on 26th July 2018  (score sheet attached). This was the reason for my gap. After getting the results of my test I  started to apply for Australia around 2 months for the processing. 

FINANCIAL SPONSORSHIP 

Father name, mother name, Sisters name ( Father, Mother, and sisters) respectively hold income  from the Salary, business and land lease at our home town/country with an annual income of  Nrs.*******/- equivalent to AUD$ *****/- and will be sponsoring me for Masters of  International Tourism and Hotel Management (MITHM) at Southern Cross University, Sydney,  Australia. I have taken an education loan of AU$ *****/- from Nepal SBI bank. 

If I am granted a visa I will be living with my maternal uncle Bishnu Poudel for a few months at  10/15-19 Tery Road West Ryde 2114 NSW. I will stay with him until I find a new apartment and  I don’t think I will have any problems regarding accommodation in Australia. 

WHY NOT IN NEPAL 

Hospitality management courses are also available in Nepal. However, the colleges are limited  which are Nepal Academy of Tourism and Hotel Management (NATHM), Academy of culinary  arts and hospitality management. The quality of education in our country is poor as compared to  Australia, the USA, and other developed countries. The teacher tends to focus more on theory  rather than practical in Nepal. In such a subject and area, practical and training based knowledge 

is imperative. After consulting with parents, seniors, teachers, and education counselors, I  decided to go abroad. I searched for the courses in all countries including the USA and Europe. I  cannot deny the fact that there are good colleges and universities in my home country that are  offering a postgraduate degree but there is only one or two of them offering Master of  International Tourism and Hotel Management. The education system in my country lacks the  ability to provide a practical based learning experience and specialization in the field of interest.  It is easy to develop a sound theoretical knowledge, but it is a big challenge to gain practical  expertise in respective fields. Hence getting a degree in Tourism and Hotel Management from a  recognized university will put me in a better position in developing a strong resume and getting  good jobs which will help me a lot in shaping my career. name the universities 

WHY AUSTRALIA RATHER THAN OTHER COUNTRIES 

However, I found that Australia is the best destination for international students. It is because,  the first thing I liked the most is, and Australia doesn’t discriminate students whether they come  from any region. On top of that, it has an English speaking environment with multicultural  aspects and also the place for tourists with a popular destination. That creates opportunities for  students like me who study hospitality management. I will have opportunities to get a world 

class education as well as international experience serving people and promoting hospitality in  Australia while I will be studying. Besides, Australia is the safest place for international students  which matters a lot for my field. 

Nepal is considered to be the top travel destination all over the world. Hence, tourism is growing  immensely leading to the development of more national and international hotels. Hyatt Regency,  Dwarika Hotel, JW Marriot, Hilton Hotel, Sheraton Hotel are few of the established and  ongoing projects in our country thus; this course (Master of International Tourism and Hotel  Management) assures me more opportunities in managerial level. Even so, having an  international degree will make me more competent and demanding in Nepal and a postgraduate  degree from an Australian University will be my Unique Selling Proposition to potential job  providers in the Nepalese hospitality market. 

I felt a strong urge to pursue my postgraduate education at an Australian University since the  value of Australian education is of exceptional quality and has an excellent reputation all over  the world. Australia has become one of the most sought educational destinations for students all over the world. It is now home to some of the world’s best universities with excellent education  and infrastructures for students. It is evident from the fact that 19 of Australian Universities were  ranked among the top 400 universities in the world (Times Higher Education World University  Ranking). The degrees provided by these institutions are globally recognized and are accepted  all over the world. Also, Australian universities have a well-founded reputation of consistently  providing a skilled workforce that has made a significant contribution to all parts of society  throughout the world. Therefore I am greatly looking forward to being part of an Australian  University that will provide me with both globally valued education and the necessary exposure  to pursue my career goals. 

Another important factor is that Australia is popular among International Students in the standard  of living. Australia’s standard of living is highest amongst other countries, living expenses and 

tuition fees are considerably lower in contrast to the United States of America and the United  Kingdom. For an international student staying away from home a safe and friendly environment  is another factor that Australia has been able to provide. Australia is home to residents from over  200 countries which makes it one of the most culturally diverse countries in the world. Exposure  to the multicultural environment allows international students to enjoy a diverse lifestyle and  know about new traditions and cultural activities and also Australia has got the ESOS act, TPS  act which protects our tuition fees and the PSW visa which help us to gain the international  experience once we complete our master course. COMPARE WITH THE USA, UK, AND  OTHER COUNTRIES. 

WHY UNIVERSITY NAME. 

As making the decision of studying Master of International Tourism and Hotel Management was  relatively easy due to the level of interest, selecting a university was tough as there are so many  top universities in Australia which are suitable for achieving my goals. I have also researched  many universities and colleges for the subject I intended to study in Australia and found a couple  of universities that matched my interests and area such as University name, University name,  University name, University name and University name in Sydney. Though, The University  name and University name are available in Sydney. After some research of my own and  suggestions from consultancies in Nepal, I stumbled upon university name. 

University name is an established Australian public university, with campuses at Lismore and  Coffs Harbour in northern New South Wales, and at the southern end of the Gold Coast in  Queensland. It also offers degrees in Sydney and Melbourne at branch campuses and  through The Hotel School in partnership with Mulpha Australia. University name was placed at  150 world’s best young universities for 2016 (Times Higher Education). Moreover, it has been  consistently ranked in the top two in Australia for international student support by the  International Student Barometer survey. In addition, the learning environment, quality of  education, multi-cultural environment, world-class faculty, extensive language resources,  reasonable fees and traveling distance in the city are some of the reasons behind selecting this  university for my further studies. Also comparing to other universities (Universities name)  University name offers the same course at a reasonable price for International Students.

This course provides knowledge about how to secure senior  management employment in tourism or hospitality organization.

This course will help us to emerge as confident leaders, sensitive  to complex issues and challenges that at times confront the global tourism and hotel industries.  This course provides us a study plan which matches our career path. This course provide us to  choose the specialized unit relevant to our career including Tourism management, Hotel 

management and Event management. I am willing to study The Master of International Tourism  and Hotel Management. Since I have completed my bachelor’s degree in hotel management I am  keen to study masters as I am interested to be a part of the hospitality industry. I find this  profession noble and also want to study more about this course. For me a career in Hotel  Management with an emphasis on service management, this two year packaged course covers all  aspects of employment in this exciting global industry. 

FUTURE PLAN 

After the successful completion of my master’s degree, I would like to apply for a PSW visa so  that I can gain overseas experience to work effectively and efficiently in different hotels. After  that, I will return to my country as I believe after completion of my course I will be qualified to  get a managerial position with a high salary in a hotel. Hotel Association of Nepal (HAN) has  affirmed that in the near future hotel industry in Nepal has a growing market with different  international brands with their own international standards. All the practical and theoretical  knowledge and the Degree from Southern University will definitely help me to sharpen my  management skills and build my career up to the international level and help me to gain proper  knowledge. Nepal is one of the tourist destination countries. Tourism is the largest industry in  Nepal, and the country’s revenue depends on it. Nepal is a hotspot destination for adventure seeking people such as rock climbing, Rafting, Mountaineers. Besides, Nepal is rich in cultural  heritage, a landscape that attracts a huge number of tourists. It is losing a huge number of  revenue due to poor management in hospitality. So, I want to study hospitality management from  a world-renowned university. As soon as I complete my degree, I will join and gain experience  from renowned industry in Australia then, I will come back to my homeland and serve for the  well-reputed industry in my field and ultimately lead the international level hotel and  organization. 

As far as I am concerned I clearly know the terms and conditions for international students.  Being an international student I will get student visa subclass 500. Students must have to make at least 80% attendance of the classes and course requirements and complete assignment on time.  The details of the address should be provided if the address changes. Students under this visa are  allowed to work for 40 hours per fortnight. Students must cover by overseas students’ health  insurance during their stay in Australia. students need to score 50% to pass each examination and  academic growth is required.
