It was located in a suburban area with good views. It has the courses I required and also was one of the top 10 universities in Australia.

Campus life is amazing. Free food almost every day of the week, strong wifi, all software, and applications are free by the university as required for the subjects, lots of clubs and societies that help you to improve your networking, awards and compliments for your work as a volunteer in the university activities.

Yes, 10%. Due to my % in my undergraduate. The higher the grades the better the scholarship.

Faculty

All the faculties are extremely helpful and understanding. You can book an appointment with your subject professors for whatsoever reason it is. Doesn’t even have to be related to the subject. Very supportive and knowledgeable.

Hostel

I’ve chosen to live off campus as university accommodation is expensive. The average on a weekly basis including bills can be anywhere between $100 -$180 If living off campus. On-campus accommodation is nearly $300 a week.
