    Hello, my name is Sarad and I am from Nepal. I completed my bachelor of social work (3 years degree) in 2019 with 56% in aggregate from Tribhuvan University, Nepal and I scored 68 overall not less than 66 in PTE. And I have been working in one of the NGOs for almost 2 years. I wanted to do my further education from Austria. Am I eligible to study master with a 3 Years bachelor degree? I am mainly focusing on Austria right now. I hope you will guide me in a certain way.. will be waiting for your reply. Thank you!!

    Thanks so much, Timo, for direct honest info. My daughter is awaiting word from the Biology graduate school on her acceptance (2024). Would you say it's better to live near your school department building or does it matter? She doesn't mind a room mate but doesn't want multiple room mates. We've not had good experiences in the United States with school sponsored dormitories. Thanks for all you great info. (Jeffrey-USA)

    • @TimoNikolai
      @TimoNikolai  Před 25 dny

      Hi Jeffrey, which university will she attend? The public transportation in Vienna is very good, so no need to live right next to campus.
      If she’s fine commuting 15-20min every day I would say it’s worth looking also for areas where she potentially could afford a single apartment or shared with only 1 roommate. Cheers, Timo

      @@TimoNikolai Wow. Thanks for the reply. I believe my daughter ( a graduate school cell biology student) will be mostly in the Biology building Djerassi-Platz 1 (formerly Schlachthausgasse 43) in Vienna's 3rd district.). I am not sure if that is the only building she will be in, but that is where I think she will be. She has been to Vienna before and is fine with commuting or using public transportation. She's pretty independent and not afraid to try new things. Thanks for your help. It means alot to her.

    @akawojo Před 10 měsíci +1

    260 euro/month for food/groceries was of course BEFORE the pandemic and even then it's not very much. I would say it's below average, if you want to buy organic/bio it gets much more.
    true, our transportation system (Wiener Linien) is pretty great and very cheap compared to other large cities!
    if only the living would be more affordable....

    • @TimoNikolai
