Australia

Hi Nitin,
I will recommend you to go for BBA. As BBA is the best course if you want to apply for MBA. In BBA you will get an overall knowledge of the field which will be helpful for you while applying for BBA. Nowadays, most of the engineering students are moving towards MBA. You have both the option available. Choose whatever is suitable for you.

Both the countries have friendly student policies and are open to immigration of foreign nationals. The advantage with Canada is that you will have proximity to the USA and can get better career options in a larger economy/region. Financially and weather wise Australia could be more comfortable for Indians.

Hi, The scholarship available for Indian students is same for all international students. Every university has its own scholarship facility, given on merit. Besides these, the Government of Australia also provides scholarships such as Australia Award Scholarship and Endeavour Post Graduate Scholarship. For more information as I said, check the university websites for the individual scholarships.

You need at least 6 bands in IELTS for the same.

Dear Hitesh,
Most of the good universities in Australia do not require GMAT for MBA admissions, they will only ask for scores of above 65%ile and an IELTS of overall 6.5 with no band less than 6. Some prefer a supervisory experience of 2 years and most have MBAs for freshers. Some like Deakin offer dual MBA i.e. you can study for an additional 6 months and also get a Masters in Accounting. Please do not take 1-year MBA as this will not make you eligible for a post-study work visa, you need to enrol for a 2-year course only.
All the best.

According to you, you will do 4 years UG and 2 years PG. You need to for study 6 years. You need 12 to 15 lacs per year for tuition fees and living expenses. In total, it will cost around 60 lakhs. We don't find combined courses in any university. Moreover, when you want to do financial management masters, it may not be MBA and it will be M.Sc. MBA needs experience and you cannot do it as a combined program.

Hello Nitin,
See, only doing BBA and MBA will not be worth it. You must be having some work experience and learning in a city such as Australia, your CV must be strong enough.
Good Luck.

All the courses are almost equivalent. Opt for the one that you love the most and are most passionate about and analyze the future work conditions, scope and growth prospects before taking admission.
You can also opt for psychometric test comprising of aptitude, personality and career interest to clear confusion.
