Deepika Narula

Founder, ASPIRE OZ  |  Ex- Senior Manager, International Marketing & Recruitments, Deakin University South Asia

Deepika Narula brings a unique "insider" perspective to the Australian education landscape, shaped by seven years leading India admissions and compliance for Deakin University. During her tenure, she was instrumental in maintaining a higher visa success rate for the university's India operations — a testament to her rigorous understanding of documentation and student quality.

Having personally guided more than 4,000 students through the complexities of Australian admissions, Deepika brings institutional precision to every application. She knows exactly what admissions officers look for, what visa officers scrutinize, and — critically — which "red flags" can derail even a strong profile.

What sets Aspire OZ apart is Deepika's decade-long foundation in senior corporate recruitment across the FMCG, Automotive, EPC and Consulting sectors. She doesn't just secure admissions; she helps students align their Australian degree with a strategic career pathway and residency outcomes.

As an expert in GS Framework and course-to-career alignment, she founded Aspire OZ to provide Indian students with what the market was missing: insider university knowledge combined with a long-term career strategy.

What We Stand For

Our Mission & Values

ASPIRE OZ exists to give every Indian student the insider advantage — the same knowledge and strategy that was previously only available from inside a university's admissions office.

🎯

Precision Over Volume

We work with a select number of students per intake cycle to ensure every case gets the full attention of our senior consultant — no junior staff, no templated advice.

🔍

Insider Knowledge

Our founder spent 7+ years inside a leading Australian university's South Asia office. We know the internal admissions rubrics, compliance checklists, and visa review processes firsthand.

🗺️

Career-First Strategy

Every university and course recommendation is mapped to post-study employment and PR pathways. We think beyond admission — we plan your entire Australia journey.

📋

GS Framework Mastery

The Genuine Student requirement is the single biggest risk for Indian applicants. We craft narratives to meet the 4 mandatory GS question requirements.

🤝

Honest Guidance

We will tell you if a course or university is not the right fit for your profile — even if it's not what you want to hear. Our reputation is built on successful outcomes, not empty promises.

🌏

End-to-End Commitment

From your first profile audit to your Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE) and beyond — we are with you at every step of the process.

What They Say

Testimonials

From parents whose children are building careers in Australia, to senior leaders at Deakin University.

"

I got to know Mrs. Deepika when she was the point of contact for all admission matters for Deakin University, Melbourne for my daughter who decided to pursue a Master of Communication in Australia. Deepika patiently answered our questions regarding career options and advised our daughter to make the most of her university experience by taking up campus roles and exploring opportunities beyond academics. This was very sound advice for a first timer going abroad on her own.

Deepika continued to be with us post starting the course and guided in all matters of course and living choices. Today, she is working as a Marketing Specialist with a not-for-profit arts organisation in Victoria, and we couldn't be prouder.

Sending our 18-year-old daughter to Australia was not an easy decision. Deepika gave us the confidence and support we needed throughout the process. From admissions and visa documentation to accommodation and settling in, she was always available to guide us.

Even after our daughter started university, Deepika stayed in touch and continued to support her. Today, our daughter has graduated and is working as a Case Worker with Public Services in regional NSW. We are grateful for Deepika's guidance.
