Campus
“THE CASTLE CAMPUS”
151 Darley Road, Manly, NSW 2095, Australia

Fondly known as “the castle on the hill” (where the Hollywood blockbuster The Great Gatsby was
filmed and where Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban were married), the ‘castle’ is a Sydney landmark
dating back to the 19th Century.

This campus is a five-minute walk to famous Manly beach and Manly’s CBD, well known for its
shopping precinct, cafés, restaurants and beachside lifestyle. A few minutes’ walk in the other
direction will lead you to the foreshores of the harbour. There are harbour-side bush-walks to
explore, extending more than 50 kilometres north and south. The ‘castle’ is also close enough to
Sydney city – 17 minutes by fast ferry from Manly ferry wharf.

As an Aspire student, you have access to facilities on campus including an extensive library,
computer laboratories, tennis and basketball courts, café, bar and restaurant. Free wireless
internet is available throughout the buildings of the campus.

Classes are held at the Northern Beaches Campus for the following courses:

STUDY
ENGLISH
LANGUAGE + LIFE SKILLS

What were the major contributing factors to your decision


to study at Aspire?
I chose to study English at Aspire because the college
provides a lot of information and assistance for students.
We have smaller classes, so we have a higher chance to
interact with our teachers.

What did you do after completing your English course?


After completing the Academic English Program I felt
confident with my level of English and started a Bachelor
of Hospitality Management at ICMS. During my bachelor
degree I did my compulsory Work Integrated Learning
internship placement on beautiful Hamilton Island.

What would be your advice to someone considering


studying at Aspire?
I would recommend Aspire. People are friendly and you can
have so much fun here. I have made many new friends from
all over the world. Also, you always get assistance for either
your studies or your life on campus.

When did you start studying in Australia and when will
you complete your studies?
I began my studies in September 2017 and completed my
diploma in August 2018. I then chose to transition into the
second year of a Bachelor of Business at the International
College of Management, Sydney.

What made you apply for a scholarship at Aspire?


I really didn't think that I could achieve a scholarship. I didn't
have the confidence and was I scared to compete with
others. I feared failure. But my parents encouraged me and
I took a chance. I did my very best in the interview. At that
time I had in my mind that even if I didn't get the scholarship
I was already one step ahead of everyone who did not
apply.
A few days after submitting my application and doing the
phone interview I received the phone call that changed my
life.
From that moment on I changed my attitude from 'as long
as I don't fail I'll be OK' to 'I need to give my very best to all
things in life'. The scholarship made me realise my potential
and the fact that I had been underestimating myself all this
time.

What did you hope to achieve while studying at Aspire?


I knew that by studying at Aspire, I could grow as a person,
make connections, and see the business world from a
different perspective in a way that could help me in the As Warren Buffett says: "Opportunities

In terms of career, I would like to work in the Human Bachelor of Business (ICMS)
Resources department of a large company such as ANZ
or Qantas so that I can gain meaningful experiences that
will help me pursue my dream, which is to build my own

What has winning this scholarship meant to you?


I am no longer afraid of failure, I am more open to
opportunities and I am able to leave my comfort zone.
I even had the courage to give a speech at the scholarship
ceremony, despite my stutter. Winning the scholarship has
been unforgettable experience.

What would be your advice to someone considering


applying?
Do not hesitate, go for it!
