If you listen to one #podcast today, make it this one: the story of @victoriauninews IT graduate, Anesu Masocha. Originally from Zimbabwe, Anesu came to Melbourne in 2013 to study with us. However, his path took an unexpected turn soon after arriving.🎙️people-of-vu.zencast.website…

Every year there is a debate about ATARs – and every year, I emphasise this: an ATAR does not define who you are or what you can achieve. Great discussion with @RichelleHunt, Meredith and @abcmelbourne listeners this morning on The Conversation Hour:

About to go live on @abcmelbourne with @RichelleHunt and @victoriauninews student Meredith Hunt to talk about why someone’s ATAR does not, in itself, reflect their full potential. There is so much more beyond the ATAR.
