Study Visa- New Zealand | The University of Auckland, my dilemmas?!?!?!?!


What? Auckland? New Zealand? Why? How?


So many questions, so many confusions, so many dilemmas, but more than that so many dreams and so many aspirations. When I started exploring my options of studying abroad, New Zealand was never on the list. Few of my relatives are in Canada, few of them are in Australia. So for obvious reasons, I also thought of these two places only. But, when I reached the immigration consultant office, they told me about the other options for study visa also like the USA, the UK and New Zealand.

I am a peace lover. I like to stay at places away from the hustle bustle of big cities. My village has a picturesque view of the greenery, peace and joy. Here, you wake up with the pleasant sounds of the birds chirping in the mornings.

But at the same time, the truth was now I wanted to move out..to grow, to explore, to experience a different lifestyle and to blossom out to a different yet amazing world. But will I be able to fit in a city life? My counsellor assured me a full assistance post-landing in the new country.



My counsellor advised me the University of Auckland, New Zealand, after seeing my interest in understanding the various cultures and their perspectives. The Bachelor of Global Studies offered by the University of Auckland will definitely quench my thirst to explore the different cultures across the globe.

My counsellor explained how I can find all the information online about the University, course and place. So, here I was- online- exploring about the place and University. I found it very fascinating that I will be educating from a university which is ranked among the top 100 universities in the world. I also checked the detailed structure of the course that I am opting for. It was equally appealing to find out about the topics that I will be covering during my studies. The research projects will enhance my skills immensely.


I am so excited. I got the admission letter yesterday. Waiting for my study visa now. What I am feeling is an absolute blend of happiness and nervousness. I am keeping my fingers crossed.

Canadian Words You May Not Know or Understand

Hey Hey Hey.. it’s time to fly to Canada , Eh? So what you sayin’ to celebrate? Confused? My language seemed little different or I may say out of place. Well, well, well, this is you should expect to hear when you reach Canada. There are few slangs or words that you make yourself familiar with. It is essential or else you will find yourself lost every time someone would speak to you in the abroad . Though the list is endless yet I have tried to chalk out few for your reference. Helloo, you should leave something for on board too ;-) Eh? - Similar to “huh” or “right?” , the word is pronounced as “ay”. “ what you sayin’?” means “What are you doing?” Now, do you understand what I was trying to ask you in the beginning? Unlike here, Canada doesn’t have states rather there are Provinces . So, which province are you going to? And, yes, most of the provinces are too cold in winters, so you must carry a toque (a warm cap) with you all the

Warm Welcome in The New Country- Canada

It has been a year that I am in Canada now. The initial days were not as struggling as I thought they would be. Thanks to the hospitality of the country. It actually welcomed me warmly. After a year, I feel settled here. My studies are going on well. I have two part-time jobs that are paying me well. You know what, it really feels awesome to take care of your college fee along with the everyday expenses. This is a good thing about here. This place makes you independent. Another good point is the people here believes in the concept of the need for balance. They go out for vacations over the weekend. There are a couple of options available here for the weekend gateways like Banff National Park, Jasper National Park, The CN Tower, The Capilano Suspension Bridge, The Athabasca Glacier, Horseshoe Falls etc. The list is countless. I am considering visiting Jasper National Park since I am really fond of watching the wildlife. Native wildlife in Jasper National Park includes elk, mo
