Life at Macquarie University is good. Try to connect with student bodies.
Tips: Students should know that there's going to be big changes coming your way. Embrace each day as it comes. Learn and unlearn. There's a solution for everything. There are student bodies that will help you steer through all problems. Always be yourself and trust that you are capable of making a difference. Make friends, and have fun but know that you are your best friend.
Likes (Safety): I have never felt like I needed an escort to go back home even at 1 am. I have always felt very safe. The people are very nice and friendly and they are always there to help you out. Sydney is a very safe city, especially in today's world.

The college is well managed and friendly.
Tips: Students should be mentally prepared to study and prepare for classes. The academic environment is really nice in the university and lectures are friendly too but you should be prepared to ask questions to the lecturers whenever you have any. Be as open as possible and participate in events, activities and campaigns and build connections.
Likes (Safety): Sydney is one of the safest places to live. The crime rate is very low, and I feel safe when I am travelling at midnight too. The sense of security is really good, I can walk freely around the city. Also, the encounter with police that I have had always been satisfactory.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I do prefer cooking outside because the food outside is not that great and I'm pretty much disappointed by the taste in most of the places. There are not many options available near the place where I live, and the places available charge for food excessively so I prefer cooking.

University is beautiful. Fun learning experiences.
Tips: Make sure you know what you are doing. The choices you made will reflect on the rest of your journey in Australia. Be wise as you'll find a cultural shift that you need to adapt. Each university has a certain set of scholarships for Indian students make sure you get all the details before you enroll. The university is good but the course that I took Engineering Management is not registered/ recognised by Engineers Australia which evaluates your academics. Make sure whatever your choice of course is you choose is recognised under respective boards. Also have a look at skilled occupations list.
Likes (Safety): Sydney suburbs and other suburbs around the unis are quite safe and calm. Law enforcement is good. It's just that you won't find frequent buses to travel after 9pm. Except the CBD, and few suburbs. Rest all are dead street after 9pm. It is 98% safe always to travel alone at nights too.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): It all depends on what courses you are doing and the relevant experience that you have with respect to the Immigration skilled occupation list. Do prior research on the courses you want to pursue. Aligning your interests, goals and skilled occupation list to meet the points to get PR.

The university environment is great and supportive.
Tips: Students should know that there is a 10k AUD scholarship per year for South Asian students. Assignments are completely research-based, unlike Indian universities where you have to mug things up. Part-time jobs are a must. You have to be independent. It is not shameful to work.
Likes (Public transportation): Macquarie University is the only University that has a metro station. It drops us off right outside of campus. Apart from the metro, buses are available as well. Transport costs are not that expensive. Keep in mind that we do not get student concessions.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Most Indian food in Australia is catered for native Australians and is not authentic. Most Indian food options are North Indian and as a South Indian, it would be nice to see some variety. I prefer cooking Indian food at home and not eating outside.

Great cultural diversity and experience.
Tips: There was an expected cultural shift when coming here, but it was not difficult. Sydney is so multicultural that diversity is the norm and making connections once I adjusted a bit more and found my groove was very seamless. I did avail of a 10,000$ early acceptance scholarship that I was automatically assessed for when I submitted my application. Overall, I am very satisfied with my university, course and Australia as a whole.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transport in Sydney is unarguably the best in all of Australia. Something I love about Macquarie is how it is the only Australian University to have its own Metro station which makes accessibility seamless. Public transport is widespread throughout the outer suburbs as well and is quite affordable.
Dislikes (Internships): There are a lot of highly relevant internships available both at university and outside the university. Something I appreciate about Macquarie University is how much the faculty helps you and guides you in finding a starting point as an undergraduate student in your professional career via the PACE unit. This is a compulsory internship unit offered by the university that goes into depth regarding the scientific field and what companies are actively scouting for.
