As for the United States, American universities are also very flexible now. Theoretically, the higher the ranking, the harder it is to get a scholarship. However, due to the demand of the American education industry to increase income, many schools that are not in the forefront but have good teaching quality are better at getting scholarships. But one thing is that accounting and other business subjects are also popular majors in the United States. These majors are applied courses, and the number of scholarships is very small. There are some obstacles to poor undergraduate performance, but they are not decisive factors. It is not impossible to go to a good school as long as you can highlight your advantages in work experience and English level. It is really difficult to immigrate to the United States now, unless the economy is strong. And "because there are too many turtles, and the accounting systems in the United States and China are different" is also biased. I won't say much about "too many turtles". More or less relative, there is no difference between Australia and the United States in this regard. And because the United States is the leader of international education, there are many people in China, but the concentration of elites is also high. The number of turtles is no longer a problem we should consider now. As for the "differences between American and Chinese accounting systems", I will just give you one example. A friend of mine graduated from an ordinary university in China and studied for a master's degree in accounting in an unknown school in new york. After graduation, I accumulated some experience in several accounting firms run by people in Taiwan Province Province in the United States and switched to PricewaterhouseCoopers. Now, with the increase of PwC's business in China, he spends most of his time doing business in China. For us, the difference in system is not a disadvantage, but an advantage. After China's entry into WTO, the pace of internationalization has advanced by leaps and bounds, and the domestic accounting system is no longer applicable to international enterprises. As professionals, these enterprises are most likely to achieve their careers. When you understand the international accounting system and advanced professional skills, these problems will not be a problem.
Personally, I don't think it is the best policy to emigrate to Australia or the United States if you want to achieve your career. The general trend now is to "go back". The demand for talents in western countries is saturated. No matter what major, if you want to compete with locals, the chances of success are much lower than in China. You're right. There is a contradiction between preparing to go abroad and working hours. In your case, I'd like to take the liberty of giving some advice, hoping you can listen dialectically. Since you have just graduated and worked for one year, your undergraduate grades are not too high. It is no problem to apply for Australia, but the good schools in the United States are somewhat mysterious. Besides, you are worried about the employment situation after returning to Australia. I think you should work for another two years before applying, for the following reasons: First, accumulate more work experience. Your current working background is a private foreign trade company. If you can jump to a well-known and international company in the next year or two, it will be very beneficial when applying. If you can't resign, you will have a promotion experience in your existing company. Second, you have just worked for a year, and the contradiction between working hours and application time is not easy to reconcile. It is not easy to have a clear understanding of your future study goals and career choices when you apply in a hurry. We must do things with a purpose. Working for another year or two can make you more aware of your future career trends, and at the same time, you can have more time to collect information about studying abroad, such as which country to go to, which school to go to, which city to be in, and your advantages. , so as to be targeted; Third, working for a period of time can appropriately reduce the economic pressure. Although the United States has the hope of getting a scholarship, it is recommended to be prepared for not getting it. Besides, you study abroad not for scholarships, but for a good education. Top 10 school is better than top 100 school, which is beyond doubt, not to mention accounting, a hot business subject. So, if you have a chance to solve your own economic problems, why not?
In addition, add a few points.
I won't say much about language problems, because language exams are easy to find online, and the language depends on yourself.
The problem of choosing schools abroad. As far as your situation is concerned, I think the ideal route for studying abroad is "studying abroad-working in the local area for a while-accumulating experience-returning to China", so it is very important to choose a school. For example, some schools, such as Cornell University, are famous research universities located in mountainous areas, but if you are admitted to Kangda, do you have to go? I don't think so. First, you studied accounting. Although Kangda may also have an accounting major, its geographical location determines that you don't have many practical opportunities, which is the most fatal point in learning accounting. On the contrary, some schools are located in large commercial cities and financial centers, not necessarily top 10 or top50 in the United States (of course, it can not be too bad), but it can provide you with better practical opportunities.
On the other hand, it is beyond the scope of studying abroad. I can see that you are an ambitious person and hope that your life and position will be more ideal, which is advocated by the values of our time. As a friend, I support you to go abroad for further study, because going abroad can really bring us something that we can't get at home, and these things can help us make great progress in the workplace, and even we may have the opportunity to go abroad for further study more than once in our career. But one thing, going abroad must consider the opportunity cost, and at the same time, we must find the right time. You're worried that the tortoise will turn into kelp. If you dig deeper, you may find that a large part of kelp is caused by going abroad blindly. Moreover, going abroad requires many conditions, such as economy, language, and more importantly, personal surroundings, such as family, the ideal level of current work, and the development expectations after returning home. I have also seen such an example. I was bent on going abroad without considering the problems I just mentioned, but I couldn't find a job when I came back. Therefore, we must make corresponding study abroad plans according to our personal situation.
As far as your current situation is concerned, I have summarized the above, hoping to help you, and I believe that whether you go abroad or not, when you go abroad, as long as you are fully prepared, you will certainly keep moving forward on the road of pursuing your ideals.
