SOP for Architecture

I,  Applicant Name  feel honored to introduce myself. I am a permanent resident………, Bagmati Zone, Province No.3. I was born on Sept 05, 1998. I am the daughter of emParents Name. I have always been hard working, disciplined and a sincere person since my early age. Failure has never disappointed me. Throughout all the decisions I made in my life, studying abroad is also one of my dream in order to enhance my capabilities.

After I made the decision to study abroad, it was not easy for me to select the country. Students have the option of countries like the USA, UK, Canada, and Germany and so on. But I found Australia to be the best country that fit me. The ever finest quality education compared to other countries provided by Australia has been a reason that I have been enchanted towards it. Australia is a globally recognized country and the third most preferred destination of international students after the USA and UK. I found Australia to have 5 out of 30 best cities in the world. I found Australia as the finest leading global education powerhouse with the world’s best educators and best facilities providing the students with a wide range of quality study options. The large number of courses and institutions available here has given the facility to study any subject as per the Student’s interest. Similarly, Australia has the Tuition Protection Service which helps the students for the protection of the tuition fees. I could also have studied in my neighbor country like China, but language barrier is the problem as we have to speak their native language for study purposes. Similarly in countries like the USA, we have to sit for the exams like SAT for getting admissions which is time consuming. Similarly, the security of one’s life matters the most.

Similarly, the crime rate of Australia is much less in comparison to other countries like the USA and UK. And being a female, security is an important aspect for me which is available in Australia in a well-organized way. The other plus point is the weather of Australia is similar to that of Nepal which will help me a lot to adapt in that environment. In Addition, Australia being an English speaking and multicultural country, will be helping me a lot to increase my fluency in English language and to compete with the several students of different cultures. Beside this, the other facility available is the post study work for international students after master’s degree which gives the international exposure to the international students. Australia has been the best in providing education. The local people of Australia have a very welcoming nature towards the overseas people. And all of these positive parts of Australia have influenced me to get my further education in Australia. I also checked the website of the Australian government www.border.gov.au, www.studyinaustralia.gov.au, www.australianuniversities.com.au and studied about the education system of Australian Universities, visa policy and conditions. After doing this much research, I am fully satisfied with Australia.

I am fully satisfied with Australia. Australia is a country with a large population of multicultural people. Canberra is one of the few planned cities in the world, which is clean and sustainable. The town is surrounded by farmland and forests as well as 53% of the total area of the city are covered with nature reserves and parks. Less than 35 microns of plastic bags are banned in the city. As compared to other cities in Australia, Canberra’s air quality is cleaner, which makes it safe to live. As a modern, vibrant and clean city, Canberra has no traffic and pollution.

According to a British daily middle-market newspaper – Daily Mail, Canberra is named as the most livable place in the country. The third year in a row, it has been rated as the best place to live in Australia. In terms of affordable housing, careers, good job opportunities, health services, and safety, Canberra rank on the top. Canberra is well-connected, and therefore, there is a short commute involved. International students can easily find accommodations close to the university. Those who are living further out from universities can commute via bicycle trails and paths. Canberra boasts one of the lowest crime rates compared to other cities in Australia. Not only national but international students also feel safer going for an evening stroll, heading to University, or walking and cycling around beautiful lakes and parklands. Canberra is an affordable destination with a high standard of living for students as compared to Sydney and Melbourne.

Choosing the right education provider is the most important step for every international student. After surfing through the internet and counseling with experienced counselors and researching various institutions, I found the   UNIVERSITY Name   as the best match for me from every dimension. The  UNIVERSITY Name  is a public university in Bruce, Canberra, Australian Capital Territory. The   UNIVERSITY Name  is one of the globally ranked University among the available choices in Canberra, I chose the   UNIVERSITY Name   because of its affordable costs and the available scholarships available. Besides, I am very impressed with its growth.

According to the Times Higher Education, it is ranked 193rd in the World University Rankings and 34^th   in Young University Rankings. Furthermore, most of its graduates get higher starting salaries than the graduates of the other universities. Alongside these rankings, its vision of intertwining academics with entrepreneurship is what lured me. Also because of its location right in the capital city of Australia. The facilities for my course in this university suit my needs and requirements. Because of its affordable fee structure and location, I choose the   UNIVERSITY Name  over other universities and colleges.  I would consider it a privilege to study at such a renowned university. The   UNIVERSITY Name   offers a refreshing environment that will give a platform to explore my interests and give a definite direction to my goals. The programs of the   UNIVERSITY Name  are flexible, customized, experimental, and reflective learning.

I am eagerly waiting to approach this program with enthusiasm and hard work and use the opportunity to advance my learning skills professionally. There are many colleges and universities providing this course but they do not meet my requirements. The University of Sydney has a very high fee structure with AUD $43,500 per year. For my course i.e. Master of Architecture, I have researched many universities. However, the   UNIVERSITY Name   is the best choice of mine in many ways. I chose the   UNIVERSITY Name   as I like the location and the course structure they offer. Besides this, it’s extensive student support services that aim to endeavor for an international student to gain academically, socially, and culturally is very impressive in comparison to support services that other universities in Australia provide. The   UNIVERSITY Name   also offers a scholarship to an international student. The   UNIVERSITY Name  is in the top 10 rankings as per Australia’s ranking order. And some of the preferred universities are not available in my chosen location. So, the   UNIVERSITY Name  is the one with a reasonable tuition fee and preferred location.

After the completion of my planned course, (Master of Architecture). I will apply for Post Study Work and will work for 2 years to get international work experience and then I will return to my country and will make a contribution by using experience and knowledge gained from Australia. I visited many job portals to find out the career option for me after completing my study. I have researched about the different links such as  www.merojob.com ,  www.jobsnepal.com ,  www.naukri.com ,  www.ramrojob.com ,  www.kumarijob.com ,  www.nepalijob.com  etc. Most of the jobs in Nepal are still locally advertised so I am fully aware that there are very good career opportunities for me once I return back to Nepal. This qualification allows for multitasking. It gives me a number of career directions with my international qualification experience.   

I am aware of the visa conditions where I have to maintain academic growth, 80% attendance per semester, OSHC requirements. I need to notify my education provider and if by any circumstances I change my address the provider has to be informed. I should meet the overseas student health insurance cover during my entire stay and study period in Australia. Hereby, I want to assure you that I understand these above mentioned conditions. I am a person with a broadened mind and a high ambition. All the details I provided are genuine. I have the confidence that the UNIVERSITY Name would be a great place to achieve my dream and horizons.

At the end, I kindly request you to consider my student application positively. Being a sincere and a disciplined applicant, I will be grateful to you for granting access to study in your college.

Hoping for positive response

Yours Sincerely,
