A happy, vibrant and balanced life.
Tips: Don't carry extra food from your home country. Everything is available. Join ANU clubs, attend ANU events, and follow all relevant Facebook groups. This will also help in making new friends. Make sure that your assignments are not plagiarized. Skim through your reading before classes Refrain from making any racist remarks.
Likes (Indian Food): There are many Indian restaurants like Blu Ginger, Curry Twist, 7 on the Lake etc. Of course learning to cook is also important as it helps in saving money and it creates opportunities to make new friends. I preferred to cook for myself most of the time.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Given a chance, I would definitely have immigrated permanently. But the competition is tough in the job market. Even if you get the work visa, it might take a lot of time to get a full-time job, especially in Canberra. Although one can get casual or part-time jobs more easily than full-time.

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.

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.

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.
