1. When did you first get in touch with IDP?
As a student arriving in Australia from Vietnam at the start of Year 11, I didn’t really know what to expect. I was apprehensive about the people that I would meet, and whether I would be adapt to the learning and living environment in a new country. Moreover, 2020 witnessed an unprecedented and disastrous global pandemic, negatively affecting my study routine in Year 12. In the midst of all confusion, it struck me hard when I had to make one of the most important decisions in my life: what study degree I want to do at university.<
2. How was IDP able to help you?
Thanks to my IDP counsellor, I could better understand a wide variety of professions, and career prospects. I was also offered a chance to talk to experienced people in the field of interest. On top of that, my consultant also helped me with university applications, which saved me lots of time and made the process so much easier.
