I'm attending online classes right now, so I can't provide details about accommodation. Most of the students opt for off-campus accommodation since it's a bit cheap. Most of the students first book a room for one-two weeks and then look for a shared apartment.

Deakin Institute is ranked among the top 1% of all the universities across the globe. The course structure of Masters of biotechnology is practically based and in the second year university allows to work in industries as an intern or choose a thesis pathway which helps students to decide their path. The admission process in this institute is very simple you just need to qualify their admission criteria like min. 12th percentage around 60% and graduation should also be above 60%. I didn't join any coaching institute for exam preparation. I approach Collegedunia for university selection and guidance for the admission process and they helped me a lot through the whole process.

One tip that I have for you guys is to plan for your study abroad as soon as possible, planning ahead is important because there are a lot of details you will need to take into account before you leave. So yeah, that's about it all the very best guys.

I think they really value student satisfaction over anything they really tried to understand or really tried to help you in terms of fresher in terms of if you need some changing you know a lot of my friends if they didn't like courses it was quite easy to drop and find a new one instead of a long procedure where you know might scare students that I am not liking the class but then there is such a long procedure and I don't wanna drop the class now. So I think in terms of that they really try to be as helpful and as flexible as they can.

Like in Singapore, although, you know, it is generally there's like this apartment culture, you've got to hit the HDB, which are the government housing, the cheapest, you can find accommodation. Right, then you've got private condos. And and although, you know, Singapore also is like very pricey, then we've come out as, like, pretty high on the rankings, in terms of, like, most expensive place to live in, right, like, but I would say, like, compared to, like, you know, somewhere like, Hong Kong, it's like, we, I would say that it's maybe most international students would find this place more like palatable, because they're slightly more space. And you're not living in those coffin homes in Hong Kong, where so there's really no space and even though like it's crowded here, right, because it's so small and congested, but I would say that there's obviously this one order

I was searching since class 11th. I searched about Australia and made a list of 10 different universities. Then, I called my counselor and she told me to go for Deakin.

My first residence was Deakin's own residences. There my rent was around $750 and I had my own private room with a laundry where all the bills were included expect the laundry. For my second accommodation, I rented a whole house with one of my friends and there I was paying all the bills and everything. But, there were 4 rooms in the house. Right now, I am living in one house and I'm renting this one where all bills are included. I just have to spend money on groceries.

I chose Deakin University because it has some of the best faculty for the bachelor of psychological science course. Deakin University has structured the course in such a way it helps in the overall development of the student. and when i was gathering information regarding the Deakin University i contacted many alumni of Deakin University and they all told me that Deakin University is the best university that offers the course that i wanted to pursue and it will help me in getting a job and in research.

For a student living in Australia, the average rent a student has to bear is $500 (excluding bills), and the bill will include utilities ($150-200). Dorms are expensive since living on campus will range from an average of $700-800 depending on the type of room.

Deakin University is a renowned university that offers courses in many aspects and is one of the top-tier universities in Australia. Deakin turned out to be a better option for me as it offered me the course that interested me the most. Besides, Deakin offering me a scholarship was also one of the reasons I went to university.

You can temporarily stay in university dorms, which costs 250$ per week. Later you can opt for a room outside the university, generally starts with 125$ per week.

Firstly, my USA visa got rejected. So, my backup plan was Australia. After my visa rejection, the immediate intake of the Australia was November, the best university to come in the November intake is Deakin University. Also, I have seen the QS rankings and heard many success stories. The curriculum is great, so these are the things that drove me to accept the admission offer.

You have accomodation on campus but you need to book in advance if you want one. There are many houses which can be rented by a group of friends which works better than on campus accommodation.

I chose DEAKIN due to the course I chose. There was only 2-3 universities which had construction management coursework and Deakin university had construction management(professional) course which intrigued me and also the fees was less compared to group 8 universities which was really too costly.

This university has accomodation facilities inside the university. It is very good. Shared accommodation also available.

I love Science, and I also wanted to change my career. That's why I started studying Science.

On campus facility is good, but it is overpriced. It is better to stay outside making it cheaper. One needs to pay for the rent, the electricity, water and gas bills. Other utilities are also to be paid like wifi and cleaning if staying outside. All bill are inclusive when staying on campus.

My selection of the University was done based on the English education nations(US, UK,AUS, Canada). I preferred Australia, especially Victoria as it is the education hub of the country. Though it is a bit expensive but comparatively cheaper than other countries. The admission process is hassle free. Chose Deakin as it highly ranked in the World and has got a good stand in Business studies.

I stay off campus while deakin also has a on campus accomidation but for a easy pocket most of the stduents look out for off campus accomidation. It is easy to find an accomidation here students can look out for various portals like Facebook market, Gumtree, flatemates.com and other sources where house listings are posted.

I wanted to apply for the Master of Information Technology (Professional) Course at Deakin University with the goal to improve network skills, software development and cybersecurity management. I firmly believed that Deakin University will be the perfect launch pad for my aspirations. The Master of Information Technology (Professional) curriculum delves into the foundational skills of the subject, while also providing an industry-oriented perspective. To sumup Deakin University’s program is an addon advantage for its International Student support system.
