Any good courses for studying to be a paralegal in australia?

Studying in Australia - what do I need to know?

  • I am planning to study in Australia, specifically Adelaide. I am interested in studying history and english, specifically creative writing/publishing. I know that the university of Adelaide and Flinders both have courses I am interested in, but I am confused about the application process. Everything I want to study falls under the bachelor of arts, so obviously thats what im going for. Furthermore, I would need to choose history- european studies as my major and creative writing as my minor (for example) correct? However, each of those units are filled with many different courses to choose from such as renaissance italy etc. I am unfamiliar with the australian education system, could someone explain to me more clearly how this all works? As an overseas student what do I decide from abroad and what do I decide there? Has anyone here studied in australia or is studying there? If so what is it like? Any advice or tips? I am a US citizen and a Dutch citizen, currently I am living in the Netherlands. Thank you so much!

  • Answer:

    Hi there, I'm from Dutch heritage myself. Why only Adelaide, city of churches *yawn*. I'm sure other uni's in Melbourne and Sydney would run the course also. A Bachelor of Arts is one of the most common courses. All you need to do is apply for the degree, once you are accepted when you attend enrollments is when you choose subjects. Have you been approved a visa for the full length of the degree? Perhaps it would be easier to enrol in Holland and do a exchange for one year.

it sounds to me like you do want to do an Arts Degree. that's what i'm doing at monash uni in melbourne so let me explain. so the course goes for 3 years and you do 4 subjects each semester. to get a major you have to do 8 subjects in a certain category eg. history and a minor is 4 subjects. to fill in the extra classes you do electives which is fun, you can learn about other topics you are interested in or you can do more history and writing subjects if you want to. also, you are allowed to do a double major if you want to. i'm not really sure how you apply as an international student, i suggest you call the uni and ask about it, they will tell you everything you need to know about it. also, i recommend going to a melbourne or sydney uni to study. the problem with doing arts is it's difficult to meet people because you don't share your classes with the same people. so the good thing about unis in melbourne is that there are tonnes of groups to join and parties every week so you can meet people that way. otherwise you might get too isolated and not enjoy your time here. but people are very friendly and if you put yourself out there a bit you'll have a fantastic time! good luck working it all out though and if you want to know any more send me an email!
