The university of Queensland is very student-friendly and has lots of clubs and events.
Tips: The University of Queensland is mainly research-based, but it also teaches you to be industry-ready. There is a high achievers' scholarship available for Indian students, and a professional experience course that is basically an internship placement course that can really help you step into the industry. You should check to see if your course has it for better post-study placement options.
Likes (Public transportation): The public transportation is nearly free, which is the cheapest in Australia, but bus frequency and range are an issue. You might have to change multiple buses if you live in a cheaper location away from the city. I recommend staying near the campus, so you don’t miss out on campus activities.
Dislikes (Student Life): The campus is open 24 hours for students. We also have good libraries and tons of research materials. Also, the university is very beautiful. They have student activities, wellness sections, and free food. Multicultural events are organised, and there are over 200 clubs for students who enjoy different sports and ethnicities.

An academically focused university with a fun campus life.
Tips: There are multiple scholarships that can best suit you if you are looking for one. Keep an eye out for the right one for you. The bit that was challenging was food. You get Indian options here, though not every place is as nice as home. You need to keep pace with it and make your own stuff. The university campus life is great. We have many activities and events on campus. We also have student bodies that look after those events.
Likes (Safety): UQ has a dedicated service for campus security that runs safety buses around the campus. They also offer a chauffeur in case you need someone to walk you to a place where the safety bus does not go. On-campus accommodation is fully secure, and so is the library.
Dislikes (Internships): The help available is limited to how the application goes, but it doesn't assist in securing one. My field of study is currently experiencing a setback, and is mostly selective hiring from the current employee network only. The number of graduates far exceeds the number of jobs.

UQ - a well rounded university with great faculty.
Tips: When you're transitioning from India's universities to Australia's, it takes time. Once you're settled in, though, it gets easy. You just get used to the things around you. Be smart. Be organised, have a rounded personality, and everything will be fine. For international students, you can use the IAS scholarships. The student fees are very expensive, but the quality of the education is great. The professors and the teaching staff are well-experienced, so they're really helpful. The assignments, while practically oriented, can be boring. The country and the universities have made me happy. Getting a part-time job will be tough initially, but networking is the key. It also helps to get to know more people. I took advantage of being in another country, and now I've mingled with people from all over the world who are in all kinds of courses. Don't stick to your friends from home or anyone who's Indian.

Worth every penny you spend.
Tips: The university provides 10,000 dollar scholarships for high achievers, while you are selected by the university. There is not much cultural shift, it is homely and friendly. They have a lot of communities and societies where you can hang out with your community or multi-dimensional students. Just try to engage and interact more with your peers and faculty.
Likes (Safety): The university campus has high security rules and ensures the well-being of the students. The city, anyway, has a few limitations on how you behave; if you are sweet and lovely enough, the city treats you well.
Dislikes (Internships): The university does not provide students with an internship. It is completely up to the student to do networking and get the internship. I don't know much about other fields, but data Science doesn't provide any internships, they do offer a part-time job if you score a 7/7 GPA as a academic tutor.

Great transportation facilities and friendly people.
Tips: Please go through the course structure on the website and check whether what you want to learn is actually there. You will be able to find friends, do not worry about that, and the people here are nice, you will have fun. Sometimes it may feel lonely, but that's a challenge you have to get over. You can check for scholarships online or ask your counsellor as well. In general, I really like it here and hope to get a good job soon.
Likes (Public transportation): The public transport system is very accessible in the city and is well-connected, efficient, and there is a variety of options to choose from as a mode of transport, including buses, trains, or ferries. In Brisbane, currently it is very cheap to travel because of the 50 cent rule, and now you can travel any distance in Brisbane for a very low price. Enjoy travelling without spending a lot each month.
Dislikes (Quality of faculty): The faculty is quite good and approachable. It is just that the way to contact them can be a hassle at times. For example, in India, you could just go and ask the professor your doubts or queries. Here, you have to inform via email, take permission and in general seems like a hassle. You also have to be careful with which TA is teaching you, as good ones will take you far with their guidance, but a not-so-good one can be a headache without clarity.

It is a mix of self learning and classroom learning.
Tips: Transition was quite smooth, and UQ was quite helpful in ensuring everything was briefed to us. I did not get any scholarship. A scholarship of 5000 AUD was automatically applied for all Indian students.
Likes (Safety): Everything is quite safe here, even at night. UQ ensures additional safety for students at night who stay on campus late. Public transport is functional late at night, around 12-1 AM, depending on what day of the week it is. People are generally friendly.
Dislikes (Internships): It can be difficult to find internships for students who don't have previous work experience. I think if you're actively trying to look, you should be able to find something, but it might take some time, as it could be challenging for foreign students in Australia to land a job.
