I visited Monash before I graduated high school and ever since then , I was determined to study here because I thought the campus had a very comfortable atmosphere and that it would be a great place to start my life as a university student .
When I graduate , I ’ d like to become a certified counselor and make the world a better place for people who may be struggling mentally . I want to raise more awareness in my home country , Indonesia , about mental health and remove the stigma around counselling .”
