just go online, dun ka magparegister den i think may bayad ang pamembership eh, tapos icomplete mo lang ang application form na iddownload mo rin sa website..if i were you, magapply kana ngayon kasi magtagal ang processing, baka tapos na ang visa mo di mo pa natatanggap ang result sa kanila, at i heard na nagbago na ulit sila na kelangan meron kang job order from new company na your going to work to them as an RN bago nila mamadaliin ang iyong paper.

thanks sis, but im going to study not work kaya i wont have a job order. i wanted to get help from an agency pero ayaw ng boyfriend ko kasi singil nila $4000 for just the aphra eh $400 lang naman talaga ang bayad. nauna na kasi boyfriend ko to study with the help of that agency pero ayun nga nalaman namin ang totoong price kaya ayaw na namin duon.

Sis, w

^ may nakita ko somewhere after researching so much about primary schools that there are some catholic schools na cheaper but really good. I'm on a planning stage pa lang kc but I wanted the study and migrate program kaya baka next year pa ko. Search ka within the area. May nakita ko before para 2k yata yun tuition then donate if you want pero encouraged yun parents mag participate sa church. That is St Mary's in sydney nga lang so malamang sa adelaide meron din ganyan. Yun nag set ng tuition daw kc is the congregation yata not the school. Goodluck!


Sis, saan located ang st mary's? Please enlighten me thanks

[littlemissspoiledbrat]

i just received my ielts score, anyone here asked for it to be rechecked since my scores are 8.5, 7.5, 7.5 and 6.5 in writing, i need a 7 in all subtest.

[pinksavannah]

at last dumating na din visa ko, packing mode na, help mga sis please
gusto ko sana maximize yung pede ko madala

-should i bring school supplies or no need na?
-ok lang magdala ng canned goods , noodles, etc?
-australia dollar ba dapat dalhin or ok na us dollar?

baka may mga tips kayo on what to bring, thanks

[[-c-h-a-]]

school supplies? siguro notebook, highlighter and pens ok na... if u need any more, you can always buy them here naman

bringing food TO australia, I really advice against kasi hassle sa customs. Pabubuksan bagahe mo at kung ano ano pa itatanong. Mahigpit sila rito when it comes to bringing food.

if you can bring AUD, bring AUD na kesa mahirapan ka pa maghanap ng magcoconvert

[pinksavannah]

thanks c-h-a!

organize ko pa list to bring ko pero not really packing yet

hanggang ngayun wala pa akong mahanap na place to stay, mostly natatanggap ko mga replies mga scam grabe talaga, hirap pag walang kilala

pero may isa ako na parang ok at malapit sya sa school ko sa may rundle.

Sino dito sa adelaide? alam nyo ba yung UV apartments sa may king william st? so far kasi parang sya lang yung genuine sa mga accommodation na nakita ko

may tatawaga pa ako na isang apartment na pinoy daw may ari at puro daw sila pinoy dun kaso sa suburb na sya mas gusto ko kasi sana sa cbd na para malapit lang

[[-c-h-a-]]

I'm from Adelaide

nadadaanan ko yang UV apartments on my way to work.

Wala namang problema kung sa suburbs ka tumira kasi madali lang to get to the city. Madali lang magtravel. Ako nga noon, lakas ng loob ko magbus at magtrain magisa kahit ako lang magisa ha! Saka mas makamura ka kahit papano, kasi of course the closer your place is to the CBD, the more expensive it is.

Hello, I'm really interested in applying for a master degree in accounting at macquarie. I wonder lang if strict ba sila sa requirements. I know that converting my GWA to GPA is passed ako sa requirement na yun. I am not sure lang if my St Paul University formerly St Paul College (College pa sya at the time of my graduation) is an accredited University in Australia. Can anyone know about this? Anyone taking up masters? I inquired at Macquarie Uni, they said I need to submit all the complete requirements including IELTS if I want to get assessed. Mahal kasi ng IELTS so i wanted to know muna if I have chances to get it before taking review and exams.

ALso, about sa work. Mahirap ba makakuha ng work yun dependants full time? I know yun student, in our case is ako yun medyo mahirap yata since limited time lang pwede mag work pero if the applicant is available to work full time madali ba makakahanap? Strict ba sila about having an australian work experience? TIA

if decided kana mas mabuti siguro take ka na ng ielts, I will be taking master of accounting studies sa kaplan business school sa adelaide campus, sa nov na intake ko

regarding macquire, I think kasama sya mga top universities, medyo strict sila sa mga requirements, so mas mabuti if you apply to several schools

meron naman iba hindi strict

may nakilala ako studying masters din sa kaplan sa melbourne campus, yung husband nya nakahanap agad ng fulltime work after a few weeks lang as a welder

[ckay]

thanks! hahanap na din ako ibang uni, apply ako as many as possible. I heard lang kasi maganda accounting sa Macquarie kaya yun yung first choice ko and also hindi sya as expensive as Uni Syd, UNSW. Hindi ba nagmamatter sa australia if graduate ka of a certain uni?

[pinksavannah]

ah uu I've heard nga din and basta galing ka nga daw sa group of 8 na mga unis, patok ka talaga sa mga employers, sa akin kasi budgeted kaya yung pinakamura hehe

if sa mga schools, depende din kasi, kung dun ka mag aaply sa mga top uni so siguro yung iba check din nila yung background mo or yung previous education mo, kaya mas mabuti mas early ka mag apply since matagal magpadala ng offer mga top uni
at depende din sa course

for example sa ibang school daw if accounting grad kana, di kana pede sa master of professional accounting since para yun sa mga non accounting grad, so dapat kukunin mo ay master of accounting or master of commerce, pero depende yan sa school

[ckay]

commerce major in management yun undergrad ko so tingin ko talaga sakto sakin yun MPA. Choice ko kasi nun una sa accounting vs it course pero since tingin ko mas mag eexcel ako sa accounting. Sana talaga matanggap ako sa isang good university. Next week pa ko pupunta sa IDP. I've been reading a lot na for a month. Gusto ko kc pag punta ko IDP, madami na ako alam so specifics na yun question ko. Meet ko naman requirements sa Macquarie, hindi lang ako sure if recognized nila St Paul University, dun kasi ako graduate.

@pinksavannah

hope you don't mind me asking where you took your undergrad? Medyo kasi top uni st paul kaya kinakabahan ako.

[pinksavannah]

pag unit or apartment ba for rent wala pang utilities yun?
may nakita kasi ako around $200 or less pero unit na sya, so far kasi sa mga inquiries ko since kasama ko hubby ko quote nila sa amin around $200 per week for a room
eto medyo same price pero unit na sya, pero kasama na kaya utilities?

oo mas mabuti yung may alam ka din aside sa sinasabi ng idp at may info pa rin na di nila alam

la salle me sis pero sa province, I think tingnan lang naman nila siguro yung mga grades mo and for mpa parang di strict yun, kasi inopen nila yun for the sake of immigration eh kaya matatanggap ka for sure

[[-c-h-a-]]

^no you have to pay for the utilities separately. So the $200 is purely for the unit lang yun

we rented a unit din kasi before

[pinksavannah]

i see, magkano utilities nyo before?

may nakita na naman akong room, 2 pagpipilian ko pa, at least accept sila ng paypal payment, safer for me

alin ba sis mas maganda in terms sa location? kidman park or magill? since school ko sa cbd

[[-c-h-a-]]

utilities namin is cheap lang kasi hubby and I are away all day and gabi lang kami umuuwi... mga $50 a week for electricity, water and gas. It can be more or less that depending on the usage of aircon or heater

between Kidman Park naman and Magill, halos magkasing layo lang sila from the CBD e. Titingnan mo dyan kung ano mas madali by bus to get to the city.

[pinksavannah]

ah so mura lang din naman pala utilities

yung sa magill nasa labas mismo ng bahay yung bus stop going to city so mas ok siguro to no?
