    How to research and find your ‘best fit’ college

    In 2012 Liam Dean-Johnson was going to school in Sydney, studying for his HSC and thinking about which Australian university he would attend. Eight months later he was stepping off a plane in the U.S. and through the gates of Brown University - an Ivy League liberal arts college in Providence, Rhode Island.   Studying at Brown changed Liam’s life - so how did he get there?  Liam talks about how, as an Australian, he navigated the U.S. college application and the importance of finding the college that is “the best fit” for him; how the flexibility of the U.S. liberal arts curriculum allowed him to explore a wide range of academic interests and why the immersive educational experience, a unique feature of the U.S. college system, prepared him for life after college. Liam’s international U.S. career is now well established, and in his current role as an Admissions Officer at New York University he poses some critical questions for anyone considering applying to a U.S. college when they finish high school.    Host: Samantha Juster, Public Engagement Officer, U.S. Embassy Canberra Guest: Liam Dean-Johnson, NYU’s Associate Director, Customer Service Admissions Operations     Do you want to study in the United States?

    Life on a US college campus through the eyes of academia

    Before Dr Geoffrey Garret became a U.S. college leading political scientist and academic administrator, he was an Aussie from Canberra. He completed his undergraduate studies at Australia National University before heading to the U.S. and Duke University where he completed both his master’s and PhD degrees.   Dr Garett is the dean at University of Southern California Marshall School of Business and before that role was dean of the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.  This conversation with Dr Garett is enlightening as he discusses his own pathway to U.S. college, while illustrating what Aussie high school students can be looking for in finding their own academic and financial fit in considering U.S. colleges.   He importantly discusses some of the differences between a U.S. & Australian higher education experience, introduces terminology, explains the processes of applying to U.S. college while also sharing what life on a U.S. college can be like and how campus living is so enriching.    Do you want to study in the United States?

    How a U.S. college experience changes lives!

    Can a U.S. college experience change a life? Mason Cox says yes! Melbourne’s U.S. Consul General talks to American/Australian Mason Cox who graduated with an Engineering degree from Oklahoma State University and had a career planned with Exxon Mobil before everything changed… Mason shares how a hobby of playing basketball at college opened up a world of adventure that led to his current job of Australian Rules ruckman for the Collingwood Football team. Australian listeners will hear that applying and attending a U.S. college is achievable and that life at an American University is full of opportunities to build a community and nurture friendships that last a lifetime. Being on a U.S. college campus provides a time to discover new talents, explore new places and mature. Students make friends from all over the country and the world and, as they do, they learn about life and about themselves. Living in a dormitory, competing in a sport or academic contest, socializing through organized clubs and friendship groups while volunteering in the community are key parts of a U.S. college experience. Many graduates look back on their college days as the best of their lives.   Host: Kathleen Lively – Consul General, U.S. Consulate Melbourne   Guest: Mason Cox – Ruckman Collingwood Football Club, Australia Football league   Do you want to study in the United States?
