Friendly and easy-going university with lots of clubs and activities you can enjoy on a daily basis.
Tips: The university provides a 20% scholarship as standard. The university is good in terms of education and supports a good work culture as well. Most of the courses at RMIT University do not have written exams. You are graded based on your assignments which results in a less stressful environment compared to other universities.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty provides a good quality of education as well and they are easy to understand. The faculty will provide a good amount of support in your academics. They will help you gain a better understanding of the subject. Most of the faculty members carry a friendly nature.
Dislikes (Internships): The internships offered are above average, but it is not certain that you will get a guaranteed internship. There is ample guidance available for your internships. There are clubs that will help you with your resume and applications as well. Internships related to the course are available but you will have to work hard to be considered for such internships.

If you want to study, go for UniMelb or Monash. It's more practical-based, and the exams are good.
Tips: Got more confident about everything. Most things have changed. How you behave, how you appear and speak with everyone, civic sense, etc. Everyone gets a 20% scholarship. And it's directly deducted from the fees when you receive the offer letter. It's good, but there are better universities.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transport is well organized but a bit expensive. The city campus is in the free tram zone if you live nearby. Also, getting a car is not recommended in the city, as you have no space for parking and no parking space for the RMIT City Campus. You have a tram stop only, but it's exactly in front of the university. The bus and train stop is 5 minutes walking.
Dislikes (Indian Food): Not many options. Also, Indian food is expensive than local food. The taste is not exactly similar to what we get in India. But it satisfied the craving. For example, you get one dish for 700-800 rupees, which we eat for 50-70 rupees in India. We prefer to cook for ourselves. Frozen roti or chapati, and you can make curry or rice at home.

The university is friendly but focus on network building.
Tips: I have truly transformed after coming here. You need to take care of everything – financially, physically, and mentally. The university is friendly and the faculty are very supportive and encourages us to participate in events and activities. I received a 20% scholarship when I applied, and I am very satisfied with my course, the university, and the country so far.

RMIT Careers has a lot of internship opportunities, but most of them are unpaid.
Tips: It's a very big campus spread across the city, so you have to be careful not to get lost. Coming from school, it's kind of hard to get used to the campus vibe of coming to the city, but after time, you get used to it, and it becomes easy to get to the university and join the clubs. This is very important to build friends. Try to socialise and build as many connections as you can. RMIT Careers has a lot of internship opportunities, but most of them are unpaid. I haven't found any yet that work for me. However, having the internship would look good on a resume, so it shouldn't be hard to find one. Overall, I am highly satisfied with my experiences.
Likes (Public transportation): It’s very easy to get to RMIT from various parts of Melbourne, especially if you’re coming from the west. I only have to switch two trains, so it’s easy. Of course, how easy it is depends on what part of Melbourne you’re coming from. Public transport isn’t too expensive, either. I roughly pay 2.25 dollars for a one-way trip because I have a student Myki pass. But the price depends on where you’re coming from in Melbourne and whether you take the bus or a tram, too.

The coursework is quite decent and the campus has plenty of things to do.
Tips: People need to put in the time to get things done. Speaking of culture, it is quite different compared to Indian colleges. It is more welcoming on the face of it but very professional to the meaning of it. I got a 20% scholarship which helped me save around 18,000 AUD. The coursework is also quite decent. It can get tough at times, but the placing is also quite fast. It can be managed though if given enough time. The campus has plenty of things to do. Student union conducts special events every Thursday which are quite cool. Other events also take place frequently providing free food, activities and most importantly free beer. The people here love their beer and it can seen in all the events. Overall, I am highly satisfied with the course, university and the country.
Dislikes (Safety): Melbourne City although has lower crime rates, it still doesn't feel safe. The main reasons for this would be the drug addicts, the junkies and occasionally gangs that roam around the city. The attackers are majority of the time not in their complete sense and conduct theft/violence just out of instincts which is why the police service seemingly has no choice but to let them go. They don't mess around with Indians though because they believe Indians have been through worse and can pretty much manhandle them if needed which is also partially true.

Excellent people with liberal thoughts and a scope of better career and personal growth.
Tips: The most challenging part for me was figuring out how to enrol in courses. I approached it like any other new experience, like riding public transportation or meeting new people. It was daunting at first, but it was worth it. Now I feel comfortable going anywhere, anytime, and talking to anyone. Classes typically meet two or three times a week during the fall and spring semesters and only once or twice a week during the summer semester. Each class lasts for a maximum of two or three hours. The classes are conducted in a workshop format, where professors and students interact and communicate throughout the class. You will likely spend more time in the library than in class. You can literally sit in any class with your student card and no one checks. I received a standard 20% international student scholarship for Indians without doing anything. Usually, standard scholarships are applied to your offer letter when you apply for the program at the university. For some scholarships, you have to apply after you receive your offer letter. I love this country and the people here. I have not met any rude people yet. I would say to get out of your comfort zone and participate in every university event, especially orientation never miss that. If you miss any events, you will likely end up with fewer friends because the more you meet someone, the closer you become. There are also numerous clubs for every interest. Join them and go to their events. Prioritize your university studies over part-time jobs. Otherwise, you will likely end up doing the same part-time job after graduation.
Likes (Internships): There are a lot of guidance available from universities. Most universities have a job-helping department, like RMIT's Jib Shop, that can help with reviewing resumes, preparing for job interviews, and even finding part-time jobs. The university also organizes a part-time career fair for students once a year in October. There are a lot of internships available, but a degree alone with the university name on it won't get you one. You need to have skills, good experience (university projects/university subjects), and network with others. If you don't have these things, consider a university that offers work-integrated learning (WIL) along with a degree. WIL is a mandatory internship program in which the university places you in a company for an internship or helps you find one on your own.
Dislikes (Indian Food): There are several Indian restaurants in Tarneit, Truganina, Point Cook, and Werribee. The average cost per person is 25-40 Dollars. Some popular restaurants are Kasba on Lakes Road Tarneit and Dosa Hut in Tom Roberts Parade in Point Cook. I prefer to cook at home, but I do go out to eat occasionally.
