The world is your campus. Are you ready to explore it? 🌍 On my morning run a few days ago, I reflected on how much the world of college admissions has evolved. For years, the US and UK were the top destinations for higher education. While they still remain right on top, my conversations with students and parents tell a slightly different story now. There’s a growing curiosity about Singapore’s cutting-edge innovation hubs and even unique, niche programs in Europe that align with specific career goals. These shifts aren’t just about exploring new places—they reflect a global mindset and the need for education that fits personal aspirations and budgets. At The College Tribe, we embrace this evolution. Counseling today is no longer about mastering one system—it’s about navigating the world of opportunities to find the right fit for every student. #GlobalEducation #CollegeAdmissions #StudyAbroad #TheCollegeTribe #StudentSuccess #studyabroad #collegecounseling

"You have to go overseas after your PhD" 🤔 Specific NZ career pathways was one of the top career support requests from the survey I put out recently. Most Masters/PhD students I talk to have the "I'll figure it out when I finish" approach, but I highly recommend having some idea about what interests you before hand. Why? Because then you can get involved in a few things and build you skills and network to take you on that journey. Don't bury your head in the sand until graduation day! I've made this pretty picture of all the potential paths you can take (in NZ!) and what the job titles can look like in each type of industry. Interestingly, only 1 (the postdoc) requires you to do a PhD 😮 So, who is interested in hearing more details about these career paths? I can go into specific skills required and progression, or stories from people in these roles... Post in the comments if you have feedback on the poster. Comment "career path" if you want me to send you the PDF, or my other poster on getting started on LinkedIn comment "getting started". More resources and exciting things are brewing... keep your eyes peeled! ----- Kia ora! 👋 I'm Maddie White, PhD Click my name, follow or connect to stay updated!

Welcoming international students isn’t just about filling classrooms—it’s about shaping futures. With over 118,000 Indian students pursuing higher education in Australia in 2023, the landscape is evolving at an unprecedented pace. Recently, I had the privilege of joining a panel discussion hosted by Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade) to dive deep into what truly matters to students today when selecting their dream university. Over the last five years, we've witnessed a significant transformation in student preferences, and the next decade promises even more exciting shifts. Today's students weigh career alignment, cultural integration, and value for investment heavily in their decision-making process. Our conversation highlighted a shift towards personalized educational experiences that go beyond traditional rankings, emphasizing the growing importance of affordable housing, robust mental health support, and adaptable learning environments. Beyond formal discussions, the true highlight was interacting directly with students and parents—listening to their dreams, addressing their questions, and reaffirming our commitment at University Living to streamline and enrich the study abroad journey. We were thrilled to unveil a teaser of our upcoming ANZ Report during the event, with Austrade graciously providing the platform for its introduction. Launching this December, this report will offer deep insights into trends for international students in Australia and New Zealand.

From policy space to academia! A journey's worth is determined by its depth of knowledge and experience and not just the timeline. Being at Woxsen University has been a turning point in my career, providing me with practical experience in both academics and internationalisation while also advancing many facets of this field together. I've learned a lot, grown, and gained a lot of different things here, which sets an ideal foundation for me to improvise my career at this point. I see both sides of the coin and understand how crucial dynamics are for both students and faculty/staff. It is important to note that this thinking was substantially influenced by the experience shift. I'm grateful for each and every day that I get to spend working. You must also have a story to share, I'm sure! which actually enters with various experise and sectors. To put it briefly, everything you learn and produce adds to your skill set.

However, when the university isn’t widely recognized, one has to question: is the investment worthwhile? The appeal of international exposure is strong, yet the financial and personal costs can be substantial. If the quality of education and the university's reputation don't meet high standards, the benefits might not justify the expenses. This is particularly true if the degree earned doesn't hold as much weight in the global job market, potentially affecting future career opportunities and earnings. It's crucial for students to consider not only the allure of living overseas but also the academic value and career advantages offered by the institution. Is the opportunity for personal growth and networking at these universities worth the significant investment? 𝗜’𝗱 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀.
