Genuine student
All student visa applicants are required to provide information in support of their application to
demonstrate that they meet the Genuine Student criteria.
Provide responses to support the applicant's ability to meet the criteria and ensure supporting
documents are attached.
Give details of the applicant's current circumstances, including ties to family, community, employment
and economic circumstances.
I am Shova Paudel, daughter of Mr. Hari Prasad Paudel and
Mrs. Manjushree Pokharel, and wife to Mr. Deepak Prakash
Aryal. I was born on 16th November 1996. I completed Bachelor
of Science in Agriculture from Institute of Agriculture &
Animal Science and then completed my Master's of Science
in Agriculture (Plant Pathology) in Rampur Campus Chitwan
of Agriculture and Forestry University in 2022. My research
"Screening of Nepalese Rice (Oryza sativa) Landraces against
Leaf and Neck Blast in Rampur, Chitwan," was the reason for me
to study further in my field and to pursue a Masters by Research.
I am currently working at Food and Agriculture Organization
(FAO) of the United Nations since February 2025 as a Plant
Pathologist. My family's total annual income is AUD 32,050.31 and
have taken an education loan of AUD 80,627.82 for our education
and stay in Australia during our studies.
Explain why the applicant wishes to study this course in Australia with this particular education
provider including their understanding of the requirements of the intended course and studying and
living in Australia.
My goal in pursuing a Master by Research is to develop advanced
technical expertise in plant pathology and molecular diagnostics
to address Nepal's emerging agricultural [Link]
aspiration has been strongly shaped by my Master's thesis,which

focused on the screening of Nepalese [Link] this

students,along with strong regulatory oversight by bodies
such as TEQSA,ensuring high academic standards and student
protection,TPS for international students and ESOS act to protect
students.
Explain how completing the course will be of benefit to the applicant.
After completing my Master by Research in Australia, I intend
to return to Nepal and work in technical and research-oriented
roles such as Research Officer, Plant Pathologist, or Project
Associate with institutions including the Ministry of Agriculture
and Livestock Development, Nepal Agricultural Research
Council, Agriculture and Forestry University, and development
projects implemented by organizations such as FAO Nepal, CRS
Nepal, CIMMYT, and ICIMOD. Even in my current role as a plant
pathologist at the prestigious FAO, I have been able to learn so
much more than my university studies. But during these times
at my current work, I have come to realise that graduates from
international institutions possess a higher exposure to different
learning and research methods which is not possible/available
here in Nepal. With the [Link] course my career profile with
international agencies will also be better and I will bring back
global exposure to my field.
Give details of any other relevant information the applicant would like to include.
I am looking to travel along with my husband, Mr. Deepak
Prakash Aryal. He is a registered Civil Engineer in Nepal and
has his own company in Nepal. He will be travelling with me to
support me emotionally during the term when I will be far away
from home. This will also be a good help to him since he will
learn about new things, new ideas for him to bring back to his
company after I finish my degree. My work at FAO has been
instrumental in deciding my career trajectory and now that I know
where my career is heading, this degree from Australia will give
me the push in the right direction.
