US Universities strongly emphasize leadership qualities, and offer broader global knowledge that instil in students a passion for learning; all qualities that hold them in good stead for future career success.

At present, after the UK and USA, Australia is ranked the third most popular destination for students. The country has a strong international standing as an educational hub of repute. Eight of the top 100 universities (Times Higher Education World rankings) are located here, with courses ranging from areas such as design, creative arts, engineering, health, technology education and medical sciences to name just a few.

Berlin and Munich are also considered to be among the more affordable study destinations for international students, with costs of living being very affordable.
