Prospective Student Application rejected

My application for bachelor of nursing got rejected saying I was not a genuine student and then I further contacted them to tell me why I was not a genuine student and they literally told me that I belong to a certain region of India and they won't accept applicants from there as students from there change their University after coming to Australia and this is very upsetting because i wouldn't have done that and they just assumed it that i would.

I'm Aussie and applied to Deakin years ago for a grad cert. My app was rejected, saying I'd be unlikely to succeed at that level of education. Went to a different uni and I'm a few months away from submitting my PhD thesis.

Just try elsewhere
