Peaceful and comfortable learning environment.
Tips: The transition was easy for me since I’m comfortable speaking English. The people here are welcoming, and the student body is friendly. I received a post-graduate scholarship that covered about 30% of my tuition. It seemed to depend on the course I was applying for and my profile. I am mostly happy with the university, given the fact that Australia is facing a large number of migration issues, and the UOW has been affected by that. Some things are different from what they used to be two years ago. University of Wollongong is a peaceful, laid-back place to live and learn, especially if you're coming from a big city like Sydney. Wollongong is a regional area about an hour's drive from Sydney. This means that the student life there is much quieter than what you'd find at a city university. However, that doesn't mean that the student body doesn't have lots to do. The area has several restaurants, including Indian food, and other conveniences that make for a pleasant campus life. There are also many beaches nearby. If that's not enough, the UOW campus is full of friendly people to help keep you entertained.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): There are no on-campus placements in Australia. However, there are job events where potential employers come and present their companies. They also talk about opportunities and careers in different fields. There are internships, too. The only thing is that the competition is very high, and one might have to network just to get their foot in the door.

One of the best college in Australia
Tips: The students should know first few months can be difficult. There is a cultural shift but you get used to the change and love to be here. Also, the students get scholarships of about 30% that reduce their fees and they will be able to pay your fees while studying by working hard.

A remarkable college experience: Strong infra, faculty and campus.
Tips: Students should research and understand the available academic, and faculty expertise. Also, the overall reputation of the college in their chosen field of study. Permanent settlement options are good so take that into consideration. Your course and college should align with your educational and career goals. Familiar yourself with campus facilities.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): I rated 5 out of 5 on permanent immigration/settlement options. Because the country and specifically the university campus in Wollongong offers attractive pathways and incentives for International students to pursue permanent settlement. One significant advantage would be one year of extra post-study work visa.
Dislikes (Internships): In terms of internship, I rated 4 out of 5 because the university provides a good amount of guidance and support to students seeking internships. The university recognizes the importance of practical experience and hands-on learning opportunities for students to enhance their skills and employability.

It's affordable and has a good name.
Tips: You should be ready. First few months can be difficult. There is a cultural shift but you get used to the change and love to be here. You get scholarships of about 30% which will reduce your fees and you can afford to pay your fees while studying if you work hard. I am very satisfied with the university as it has a very good name and it is affordable. I paid my fees myself and managed to ace it.

It's good to study and enjoy the college atmosphere
Tips: My university provided a scholarship. They are very helpful and supportive in all ways. And many more opportunities such as job, internships and so on are provided to students. For students coming here, it is important to know what the college is providing and what is beneficial to you or else it would be difficult to understand.
Likes (Public transportation): It is very easy and convenient to reach the university. You have buses and trains to reach the university. Plan before you start as the timings are on time. And there isn't much to understand with the system, although, I am new and still exploring the country I would say public transport is easy to use.
Dislikes (Internships): There are many ways to apply for an internship. The college provides input for where you can do stuff for the jobs and all. You can find relevant internships based on your studies like business analytics, digital marketing, business development management and so on.
