Deakin:A place to belong
Tips: The thing is you'll find a lot of Indian students here. This will help you in the transition making it easier. A bit of cultural shift and I'm sure you guys will adapt. No scholarships.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transport is something which is really good. Buses every 10 minutes and you've trams as well. Connectivity shouldn't be an issue. One point to note is that travelling time might be higher in some cases. Eg: 10 km will take about an hr.
Dislikes (Part time work): As a student who is new, finding a part time job can be overwhelming especially not knowing where to start from. The only thing to remember is to reach out for referrals. Finding a job with referrals will make the job search 10 times easier.

Beautiful, supportive and reliable.
Tips: I have observed a huge cultural shift, especially during Indian festivals. They do celebrate here, but it can't be compared with the celebrations in India. I got a 25% scholarship, applying online. If you are coming through agents, always make sure to double-check the information provided by the agent. I have come across multiple Indian students who were cheated by their agents, only to extort money from them. If people have experience from India, then they won't find the course very useful. Although the professors provide huge support to students in their academics so make sure to reach out and don't be shy.
Likes (Indian Food): If students are looking for Indian restaurants, then I would say Clayton has many restaurants. I prefer cooking at home since I can manage my calorie intake. The average rate for a meal would be 30 AUD. I would highly recommend trying different cuisines as well.
Dislikes (Part time work): I would recommend that students always check their student job portals for availability on-campus part-time jobs. The pay rate is very good. Sometimes managing part-time work along with academics might be a bit difficult but try to balance everything.

Deakin University is academically demanding but rewarding.
Tips: Before joining, know it's academically demanding but rewarding. Transitioning was tough at first cultural shift hit hard, but I got adapted in about 2 months. I got a merit-based scholarship with a decent discount on my studies.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transportation is one of the best things in Melbourne. Trains, trams and buses - they connect every small area which you can not even think of. Everything runs on a smart card system called Myki, and services are generally frequent, reliable and easy to navigate for newcomers.
Dislikes (Internships): Honesty internships are not really the culture here. Instead, you usually get part-time jobs, working alongside professors as assistants and getting paid for that experience. However, typically you need to be at least in your second year of studies and have a decent academic standing to do this.

Easy going, fun loving and friendly university.
Tips: Students should know that it's an amazing place to come to and pursue their degree. We get to meet people from various cultures and learn about different people and their lives. Moreover, we get to try more things, explore new places around us, and it's always a better experience.
Likes (Quality of faculty): What I enjoy the most is the campus, it holds so many events and games every day, most of the events have freebies and rewards, which encourage us to be a part of it. There are a lot of clubs for different people, like I'm a part of the Indian club, which organises events for Indian students and doesn't make them feel left out.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The teachers and the faculty have been really kind, and they understand the students deeply and try to help us whenever we are stuck at some point. Moreover, it doesn't require any physical studies; all of it is digital, which enables us to easily access the content or assignments from anywhere. Plus, it has benefits for the environment as it reduces paper waste.

Deakin University: Innovative, inclusion and industry redlines.
Tips: I have transitioned in many ways, and Australia has changed my point of view in each and every way. There was not much of a cultural shift. The people of Australia are very friendly and have a welcoming nature. In the beginning, it was pretty tough because I didn't have friends or relatives. But it made me the most, the strongest, and self-powerful, and that is what independence means. Public transportation is the best in the city. It is affordable, accessible, and convenient. It costs me $300 monthly, which I feel is a good rate. The buses are frequent, which is also helpful.
