Charli Nikola
Rugby Australia | The University of Queensland | Bachelor of Advanced Business (Honours)

With this degree offering majors of accounting, finance, business analytics and more, I am supplied with many options to explore my passion, whilst learning practical, people-based skills. Upon graduation, my accounting major will make me eligible for professional memberships like association of Certified Chartered Accountants and many more.
Balancing full time study with rugby sevens commitments limits my available work hours. My rugby schedule requires 12 hours per week to regimented training schedules, plus additional carnivals and individual sessions. This must be balanced with my study load of 40 hours per week, including 20 hours of contact time. These two large commitments significantly limit my flexibility around regimented fortnightly shifts at my work. Given the academically challenging, demanding nature of an Advanced Business degree, I would love the opportunity to complete the course to the best of my ability by being able to prioritise study over a need to work.
