Good university with strong academics and practical approach.
Tips: I didn’t face any sort of cultural shift, as there are a lot of Indian students in the university. Explore Australian culture as well and learnt a lot of new things like work-life balance from them. I availed a 30% scholarship by maintaining a final year and individual CGPA and SGPA of 8+. Overall, I am very satisfied with the university as they genuinely believe in learning practically and the application of concepts. Adelaide is extremely safe in terms of Safety, and Aussie people are really helpful in every aspect and welcoming by nature.
Likes (Public transportation): I have my house located at Magill Road, and the bus stop is right next to my house, which directly takes me to the University Bus Stop. That is the best way of transportation. If you are travelling to a far place with a group, it is better to book an Uber or DiDi.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I prefer cooking my own food as it saves on cost, and there are several Indian restaurants nearby if I don't want to cook. Specifically: Chakna bill for two is 60 dollars, Bombay Spice 50 dollars for two, and Chatkaaz $50 for two.

4.5
An international local experience.
Tips: Prospective students should go through the course curriculum beforehand to ensure they set their expectations right for what they are gonna be studying in the classes. There are scholarships available that are provided on merit. The current university is transitioning into the new Adelaide University, so there are a few things which are still being worked out, but hopefully it will all be settled soon.
Likes (Student Life): There is so much going on in the university. Every other day, some activity is happening on the campus; it's up to you if you want to participate or not. Student engagement activities, informative sessions, giveaways, and other well-being activities are a few to list.
Dislikes (Public transportation): There is a robust network of public transport connections from the university to other locations. Trains and tram services are available in limited areas, which can increase travel time using buses. The transport services are not so expensive, and special concession fares are available for students.

Great place for personal and professional growth.
Tips: Before enrolling, thoroughly examine the course content and subjects. Don't make your decision based solely on the course name. While the professors are knowledgeable, lectures tend to cover the basics. If you're a dedicated student, schedule appointments; professors are happy to delve deeper into the subject matter.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): Visa options are great, and the post-study visa is sufficient. The PR pathway is relatively easy compared to the USA or the UK. Many companies are willing to sponsor you if you have the necessary skills. Keep track of the skill occupation list and apply at the right time. Consider taking the PTE for your visa application while in Australia.
Dislikes (Internships): The university has a career services department that posts jobs and internships, but the promotion and marketing are insufficient. Most students are unaware, and those who are aware often outnumber the available internships.

The availability of on-campus part-time work is limited.
Tips: Mostly it was about understanding how Australians function, learning their lingo, and observing their interactions. Because of academic excellence, I received a 30% scholarship, which covered almost an entire year's tuition. I've had positive experiences and would recommend Adelaide to students.
Likes (Safety): Student service and mental health support are excellent. Most faculty members are helpful and patient. There are many understanding people, and you will be treated as you treat others.
Dislikes (Part time work): The availability of on-campus part-time work is limited; there are more opportunities off campus. It's manageable, but it depends on your course. If you're studying something like medicine, you likely won't have much time to work. With working restrictions for international students, you can likely earn around 1,500 per fortnight, which is sufficient for personal expenses.

it's a great place to meet people from different countries and get to know about their culture.
Tips: Students should research more about the campus and clubs that can help them during their course. This research can also help them land part-time jobs sooner than expected. It's also good to know more about the local culture and language, as some of the words are slightly different from what we use back home.
Likes (Safety): There have been very few incidents concerning the safety of international students. It's better to stay close to the city as these crimes take place in the outback. There are situations where you might work in a service station, and you might notice a shop theft. It's better to report to the cops, rather than fight with the shop lifter.
Dislikes (Public transportation): There is no proper suburban connectivity through public transportation. The public transport is also not that frequent when you compare it with Melbourne or Sydney. One advantage here is that you can use the same public transport card that can be used for trains, trams and buses.

Very few internship opportunities but great student life.
Tips: Before joining this university, make sure you understand that you are required to struggle as a student. Studying abroad is not for those who want things to be easy and are lazy. You will not only be required to study but also do your own chores and possibly more as well as work. Finding work in Australia, along with the visa restrictions, is going to be hard. I would recommend practising your English, and doing all your chores and maintaining an active lifestyle before coming to Australia. Making an appropriate resume and CV is also recommended. Also, remember your goals. You are here to study and create a life. Find a balance between having fun and studying.
Likes (Student Life): There are going to be a lot of events within the campus and meet-ups that will happen every week in order to keep you motivated and entertained. You might be able to make a lot of friends, depending on how social you are. The types of events vary from cultural to hobbies, depending on what you are looking for. Almost anything you can think about will have a club or community at the university. My personal favourite is going to be the Japanese club meet-ups. Being able to practice Japanese with native Japanese speakers was a great experience.
Dislikes (Internships): The university does have internship opportunities however, there are only a few opportunities that you will receive in your 1.5 or 2 years here. The opportunities also are a long shot and 90% of the time won't get you to even an interview due to lack of experience .
