My UTS College story

My turning point

When I stopped focusing on what I'd missed out on and started focusing on where I wanted to go. Once I committed to my goal, everything started moving forward.

How I got here

When my family hit tough times, I put study on hold and went to work. For years, I focused on supporting the people around me. Eventually, I realised I wanted to build a different future for myself, and that meant finding a path back into education.

The year that changed everything for me

I found people who shared my ambition, discovered new opportunities and gained confidence in my ability to succeed. Most importantly, I found a clear direction and committed to it.

3 things I didn't expect

One of the best surprises was being surrounded by people who were just as motivated and driven as I was.

Confidence comes from doing

Having a plan changes everything

People often ask me about

Taking time off before university. "Have I left it too late to start studying again?"

Not at all. Before returning to study, I spent several years working and helping support my family. Coming back gave me a clearer sense of purpose and motivation than I'd ever had before.

Choosing the right degree. "What if I don't know exactly what I want to do?"

I started by thinking about where I wanted my future to take me. Once I had a goal, it became much easier to identify the study path that could help me get there.

Meeting people. "Will I fit in?"

One of the biggest surprises was how many like-minded people I met. I built connections with students and teachers who supported me, challenged me and helped me grow.

“The year I found my drive and a fresh start.”
