There are limited internship opportunities for finance students, especially with external companies.
Tips: For my degree, although the semester one courses are marked as 'Introductory,' they are complex, especially Statistics. A certain level of mathematics knowledge will be beneficial before starting this. Last-minute studying will not work.
Likes (Indian Food): There are mostly Asian restaurants due to the high Asian population, and many Indian restaurants in the CBD. As food is quite expensive, I generally prefer to cook at home. Vegetarian options are limited but available, and there are plenty of other affordable options for students on the ANU campus.
Dislikes (Internships): There are limited internship opportunities for finance students, especially with external companies, particularly if you're on a student visa, as many Canberra businesses are government-affiliated, restricting international student employment. While the college offers guidance, it hasn't been very effective in securing jobs in this market. The Momentum program for CBE students provides excellent support, and it's particularly beneficial for new students if they don't have a mentor.

Make sure to fully utilize the facilities and resources provided by the university.
Tips: Make sure that you are using the facilities, which is the biggest mistake I made. Use the libraries and labs instead of studying in your room. Try to limit the days you work to let's say three days a week, and then focus on your studies for the remaining period. The buses are really good. They can be slow depending on where you live. However, if you are on campus, everything is accessible. Moreover, there are trams as well, which allow easier access. The transportation is affordable, with student fares around $1.60. If you are into sports, you will love ANU and Australia.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): I'm still struggling to find a job. Most of the jobs are restricted to citizens for security reasons. Especially because Canberra is the capital of Australia. Usually, a new graduate tries to get into really competitive graduate roles. During the interviews, they focus more on behavioural skills over your hard skills.

A great experience so far with many opportunities and internships.
Tips: Canberra is a more relaxed town than most, so it may be slow-paced at times. However, the people are lovely and open-minded. Be wary of your expenses as the service industry is expensive compared to cheap labour in India. More than ANU's courses, the networking options and opportunities are what make the university a great value for money.

ANU: A second home away from home.
Tips: Canberra is a diverse city but it lacks cultural food options for South Asians especially Sri Lankans and South Indians. It is difficult to find good imported foods from India and Sri Lanka in Canberra compared to other cities like Melbourne or Sydney. Besides the transportation facility is very affordable convenient and easily accessible. There are lots of internship opportunities available so you need to find one that matches your schedule.

A leap for good challenges that will shape you for life.
Tips: Students must be aware of referencing, and academic style of writing and have fundamental knowledge in the field they are going to study. Students must also be well aware of resources and facilities for them by their department and the university. I experienced culture shock in terms of how young adults earn, live by themselves and study, which is very different in India. The party culture, drinking culture and legal drugs were surprising to me. I love how multicultural and diverse the cohort is at the ANU.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty at the ANU is highly qualified and professional. The experience and work of the professors are exceptional. The faculty is very diverse and mostly all professors have their unique way of teaching. The professors are usually accessible by appointment and are supportive.
Dislikes (Value for money): It is an expensive country in general. The fee for international students is much more than what domestic students have to pay. A lot of university events are paid and hall events are usually very expensive. Anyone who is earning through a full-time job can take out the expenses easily which is a rare case.

Academically rigorous yet rewarding experience.
Tips: I received a scholarship that offset 50% of my academic fees. The transition initially was very difficult, especially when there was so much academic pressure. Be mentally prepared to spend more than 10 hours studying every week.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Heavily dependent upon government policies, which change on a year-to-year basis. Usually, the university does not play too much of a role in determining whether you will be able to immigrate. Studying abroad involves many more opportunities beyond immigration. You could also work in a different country apart from Australia.
