This is great! Thanks for the love! 🙂

[@ChoosingYourUni]

You're welcome @Victoria University. Have loved watching what you've done with the 1st year program - ground breaking - and have always admired how the uni focuses so much on serving its community. Would love it if you could share this vid!

@@user-vw1rs1zd9v Hi man can you do me a little review about the uni and are the procedures complex? I've been planning to apply for VU but I've seen so many bad feedbacks so I'm a little confused.

[@levwhitelaw5561]

hello! do you have anything to say about the music course that they offer at Kindred Studios. If so, i would love to hear it

[@ChoosingYourUni]

I don’t know Kindred Studios, sorry!

[@roohakaur477]

Hello, what is advisable to choose between VU Melbourne and VU Sydney ? please elaborate as much as possible. Thankyou

[@ChoosingYourUni]

VU in Melbourne would be the go for me. That's where the main campuses are, which is where you'll have the best possible experience - there are more services and students there. Sydney is a small campus where you'll mostly be with international students and not have access to the full VU experience. Melbourne and Sydney are both great, so I would definitely go to Melbourne if it were me.

[@aryan12458]

How about sports management at vu? Looks exciting and scopeful to meee...

[@ChoosingYourUni]

Yep, a very highly regarded program 👍👍👍

[@zareenkomal]

i have five bands in academic after 12 years study. i want to come in Australia for study is there any chance in victorea uni?

[@ChoosingYourUni]

If you mean 5 Bands on the ISLTS academic English scale, it’s probably not enough for direct admission without preparatory English first.

[@zareenkomal]

what can i do to improve my english

[@zareenkomal]

whats the indirect way?

[@ChoosingYourUni]

Do Duolingo for 15 minutes every day. It’s free. There are also plenty of cheap or free online courses and resources. You might also want to do a paid online course. The main thing is practice practice practice. Read books in English. Watch films in English. Write in English.

[@Hitshan_Shrestha.]

What about bachelor of information technology ? Should I go for western Sydney or Victoria ?

[@ChoosingYourUni]

WSU for me for that one.

[@arshdeepverma7762]

What about early childhood education? Is this course best for overseas students.

[@ChoosingYourUni]

Education is good at VU. There’s a shortage of early childhood specialists in Australia right now too.

[@N.Priyanka]

This is great..... Tell me about location .... Is this university in city area..or outer city ?

[@ChoosingYourUni]

There are quite a few campuses so it depends what you’re studying.

[@samreenkaurgill09]

What about bachelors psychological studies for international student? Is it worth it?

[@ChoosingYourUni]

Solid option.

[@ChoosingYourUni]

Great!

[@belimtless4637]

Is bachelor of Mechanical engineering really hard??

[@ChoosingYourUni]

I think that really depends on you. I know people who breezed through it (great at maths and also at solving problems) and others that found it challenging.

For what?

@@ChoosingYourUni Business course

[@ChoosingYourUni]

Probably Deakin over VU imo but that’s a very general comment. There are other things you might want to consider. But for me Deakin. If it were for sport management for example that would be a line ball call.

Sir there is any rejection in victory university for bachelor stds of current situation

[@ChoosingYourUni]

I’m sorry, I don’t understand your question?

[@anupabanjara7414]

@@ChoosingYourUni there is risk for visa rejection in Victoria university

[@ChoosingYourUni]

Why would there be?

[@ChoosingYourUni]

I mean, as long as you meet all the visa conditions, it makes no difference which university you’re studying at.

[@brutal586]

Is it good for business analytics?

[@ChoosingYourUni]

Not specifically sure how that’s going right now but it’s a smart degree to go and study. Even with AI coming that will make it easier to uncover more insights, the ability to ask the right QUESTIONS will be critical.

[@belimtless4637]

Which is better uni or Tafe??

[@ChoosingYourUni]

Neither is “better”. Both have strengths. It always depends on you and what you’re hoping to get out of one or the other.

[@belimtless4637]

@@ChoosingYourUni Can I get good job with Tafe degree... Like, Bachelor of engineering technology ( Mechanical and manufacturing engineering) from Chisholm....

[@ChoosingYourUni]

Ah! I see what you mean. There’s no reason why not - just check the sorts of jobs that you would be eligible for once you graduate. A TAFE degree will be very applied - hands on - and connected to industry. But it might lack the connection to recent academic research. Chisholm is a well regarded institution.

[@belimtless4637]

@@ChoosingYourUni is Tafe better than a college.... You know, Uni is best but, it's fee is out of my range......so, Tafe is better than a college or not?????....

[@ChoosingYourUni]

Can't comment on that specific program but business analytics is a good decision for the future - AI will help with some data and analysis, but the world is going to need skilled practitioners who know how to ask good questions and use the output!

[@av4taryt425]

Why is it considered as the worst uni of australia ?

[@ChoosingYourUni]

Ummm, it's not. VU has done an awesome job of serving its community in Western Melbourne. It's new block teaching model has won international awards. It might not be as strong as other unis in some areas, but its got plenty of strengths where it outperforms many many others.

[@av4taryt425]

I mean the reviews are not great, Anyways thanks for replying i respect your opinion.

[@ChoosingYourUni]

Out of curiosity, where have you read reviews? There’s only one “reviews” website that I know of but it’s pretty poor - mostly just people complaining.

[@zubrenostumbi8887]

is this a sponsored video ... because if u read the comments/ Reviews about VU are horrible

[@ChoosingYourUni]

No, not sponsored. Fully Independent. VU has some areas of world-class academic strength, like in the sports area. It’s block-teaching model has won awards. So always look in the details - don’t just read reviews like “this is great” or “this is shit” and think it applies to you. Including my stuff. If you want the most honest data, look at the Government data about VU that I recommend in this video. You’ll find it here: www.compared.edu.au/institution/victoria-university/undergraduate
