It only feels expensive when you don't fully utilize the university's facilities.
Tips: I suggest the newly arriving students to attend all the lectures and all the university events. There are many things that go on in the university. There are a lot of clubs and they have a lot of activities in the clubs. So whoever has similar tastes and hobbies can have a good vibe.
Likes (Indian Food): There are some good number of Indian restaurants in Melbourne so that was not a problem for me. Sometimes the taste is a bit less spicy but experience with the food is not that bad. Not just Indian, there are a lot of good cuisines from all over the world.
Dislikes (Part time work): My university did not help that much in finding part time. I got it on my own through my references back from my country where they helped me in referring a couple of jobs in and around Melbourne. I was lucky I got a part time job a bit early. But there are some who still did not got any.

Deakin:A place to belong
Tips: The thing is you'll find a lot of Indian students here. This will help you in the transition making it easier. A bit of cultural shift and I'm sure you guys will adapt. No scholarships.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transport is something which is really good. Buses every 10 minutes and you've trams as well. Connectivity shouldn't be an issue. One point to note is that travelling time might be higher in some cases. Eg: 10 km will take about an hr.
Dislikes (Part time work): As a student who is new, finding a part time job can be overwhelming especially not knowing where to start from. The only thing to remember is to reach out for referrals. Finding a job with referrals will make the job search 10 times easier.

Beautiful, supportive and reliable.
Tips: I have observed a huge cultural shift, especially during Indian festivals. They do celebrate here, but it can't be compared with the celebrations in India. I got a 25% scholarship, applying online. If you are coming through agents, always make sure to double-check the information provided by the agent. I have come across multiple Indian students who were cheated by their agents, only to extort money from them. If people have experience from India, then they won't find the course very useful. Although the professors provide huge support to students in their academics so make sure to reach out and don't be shy.
Likes (Indian Food): If students are looking for Indian restaurants, then I would say Clayton has many restaurants. I prefer cooking at home since I can manage my calorie intake. The average rate for a meal would be 30 AUD. I would highly recommend trying different cuisines as well.
Dislikes (Part time work): I would recommend that students always check their student job portals for availability on-campus part-time jobs. The pay rate is very good. Sometimes managing part-time work along with academics might be a bit difficult but try to balance everything.

Deakin University increases fees every year, so living on campus is expensive.
Tips: One thing that students should know before coming to this university is that the teaching style is quite different from that in India and there won't be regular classes and exams as we are accustomed to in India. Students need to make themselves more practical-oriented and focus on balancing their studies with other chores. Some other important points to note are that university fees increase every year, and living inside the university accommodation is expensive, as compared to living outside.
Likes (Safety): Deakin always has security officers present at the university 24/7. Also they have an app called Safe Zone using which the campus security team can access our location. There are different options available on the application, using which we can call the campus support services.
Dislikes (Internships): It's not hard to get into chips, but in Australia, colleges don't place students and you are responsible for finding your own internships. Thankfully Deakin has a team called "DeakinTalent" that can provide some guidance on building a resume and LinkedIn profile. Still, you're left to your own devices to take full advantage of these resources.

Deakin University is academically demanding but rewarding.
Tips: Before joining, know it's academically demanding but rewarding. Transitioning was tough at first cultural shift hit hard, but I got adapted in about 2 months. I got a merit-based scholarship with a decent discount on my studies.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transportation is one of the best things in Melbourne. Trains, trams and buses - they connect every small area which you can not even think of. Everything runs on a smart card system called Myki, and services are generally frequent, reliable and easy to navigate for newcomers.
Dislikes (Internships): Honesty internships are not really the culture here. Instead, you usually get part-time jobs, working alongside professors as assistants and getting paid for that experience. However, typically you need to be at least in your second year of studies and have a decent academic standing to do this.

The university is diverse, has a great culture, and really puts students first.
Tips: Deakin University is a great place to study. I like that the university is diverse, has a great culture, and really puts students first. It has several campuses, but Burwood is the main one. It's a fun university with a very diverse and friendly student body.
Likes (Safety): Melbourne or other cities in Australia are super safe because of super friendly people, there is a strong sense of community, and it is a developed country, so services like police help or ambulance are very great and fast. Australia is also very clean.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I want permanent residence, or PR or citizenship of Australia because it is a very good country and very diverse in culture, with proper safety and also the work-life balance is great. Career growth is best in Australia, and you can also change careers very easily.

Easy going, fun loving and friendly university.
Tips: Students should know that it's an amazing place to come to and pursue their degree. We get to meet people from various cultures and learn about different people and their lives. Moreover, we get to try more things, explore new places around us and it's always a better experience.
Likes (Quality of faculty): What I enjoy the most is the campus, it holds so many events and games every day, most of the events have freebies and rewards, which encourage us to be a part of it. There are a lot of clubs for different people like I'm a part of the Indian club which organises events for Indian students and doesn't make them feel left out.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The teachers and the faculty have been really kind, and they understand the students deeply and try to help us whenever we are stuck at some point. Moreover it doesn't require any physical studies; all of it is digital which enables us to easily access the content or assignments from anywhere. Plus it has benefits for the environment as it reduces paper waste.

Deakin University: Innovative, inclusion and industry redlines.
Tips: I have transitioned in many ways, and Australia has changed my point of view in each and every way. There was not much of a cultural shift. The people of Australia are very friendly and have a welcoming nature. In the beginning, it was pretty tough because I didn't have friends or relatives. But it made me the most, the strongest, and self-powerful, and that is what independence means. Public transportation is the best in the city. It is affordable, accessible, and convenient. It costs me $300 monthly, which I feel is a good rate. The buses are frequent, which is also helpful.

Great learning environment and highly knowledgeable faculty.
Tips: I think if you just know the basic cultural slang of Australia, you are good to go. People here are really nice, so try meeting new people, talking to them, and making friends everywhere, and you will never feel homesick. If you don't feel homesick, everything would be easy for you. The faculty is very sweet and helpful, everything is so smooth with them, and I have never faced any problem talking to them. We're provided with multiple ways to talk to them, like through messages, through regular meetings for our doubts, or in person during doubt sessions.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I am sure that I would be able to get a permanent residence very easily, and, if I were given a chance, I would settle in this country because of the work environment, easily accessible public health facilities, cleanliness, and everyone is so nice here.

There are innumerable post-study work opportunities after graduation.
Tips: Be prepared to hear "no" from a lot of employers since it's hard to get jobs here. And make sure you have a driver's license. It's a wise decision to settle or plan to settle in Australia, as immigration is mostly streamlined. However, it has delays, but the Skilled Occupation List and Skilled Shortage List help people determine whether their studies are needed.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): There are innumerable post-study work opportunities after graduation, and the university also has an employment cell to get you trained or ready for a job. There are multiple options of working on campus in university jobs as well as finding a job elsewhere in the city. It’s not as bad as the UK.

Navigating culture, community, and course choices.
Tips: Students should always select courses based on personal research. Also, make sure to keep up with the frequent changes to immigration rules. Me, as a girl from a joint family and coming to an unfamiliar country miles away from my family, found the initial days difficult. The cultural differences were vast, but because everyone here was welcoming, it didn't take me long to become a part of the community. I am very satisfied with my university and course, but I do wish I had done some research before taking my course instead of blindly listening to my counsellor.
Likes (Quality of faculty): All the faculty are accessible via email. Each subject has mentors in addition to professors. The teaching methodology is unique and doesn't use textbooks. All course materials are accessible online. The teaching staff comes from a variety of countries. We learn more practical knowledge than theoretical knowledge.
Dislikes (Value for money): The selection of any university is okay. It’s not that you only have to study in high-end universities. Where ever you study it’s the same. At last, all that matters is your skills and experience. I think instead of sticking to the same university from start to finish, I had to explore more universities before applying to a high-end university.

There aren't many events at Deakin but there are lots of students clubs and are quite active.
Tips: One thing to remember is that the education system is very different from India. I struggled quite a lot to adjust to this system and eventually pulled through but it was quite hard to. I do have a scholarship, and it covers a good amount of my fee. My friends are on a 100% scholarship which I couldn't qualify for because of age restrictions and they completed internationally for the Deakin Vice-Chancellor International 100% Scholarship. It is a difficult competition but I would fully recommend trying out for it because giving it a shot could give you better results than you think. I am satisfied with my experience here, the course and country are both wonderful and I love it here. It's definitely a wonderful university and I would completely recommend it.
Likes (Public transportation): There are bus options and tram options round the clock. Victoria's public transport is expensive going up to 10 dollars a day. But Deakin specifically offers student discounts that cut down costs by almost 50% so it's definitely cheaper than it's supposed to be however, most universities don't do this.
Dislikes (Student Life): My days are usually just studying and hanging out with my friends. I enjoy the beautiful vast campus with all the cool buildings and spots to study and hill, studying here doesn't really feel like studying, it just feels like a fun activity. There aren't many events at Deakin, but the clubs are quite active and arrange many programs for the club members. I participate in quite a lot, considering I am a club executive, but it wouldn't be the same for someone who doesn't actively look to get involved in activities. Lots of student clubs, I believe over 100 are present at Deakin. Indian communities, religious communities, fashion communities, tech and art and lots more.

Deakin University does not provide many opportunities for students for jobs.
Tips: The transition was smooth, as everyone here was very friendly and helpful. I experienced a very little cultural shift but in a very positive way. I got a 25% scholarship, which was a huge help. The university is huge and has lots of facilities, and the course is very interesting. There is a direct tram and bus service from the university to various parts of Melbourne. The teaching is very interesting, and the instructors discuss real-life scenarios instead of just teaching from a book. The teaching faculty is also diverse in terms of nationality. The city of Melbourne is very welcoming, and I would highly recommend this university to any international student. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with my experience at Deakin University.
Dislikes (Part time work): The university does not provide many opportunities for students to work part-time. However, there are many part-time job opportunities available in Melbourne. Part-time work is manageable because students cannot work more than 48 hours per fortnight due to visa restrictions. The average hourly pay rate is between 25 and 31 aud.

The university is good and there are a lot of part-time opportunities.
Tips: There is a huge cultural difference, so get a part-time job as soon as possible and learn how to speak to locals and their culture. Students coming in might feel disconnected, but don't give up. Everyone feels the same. Just try to adjust and be open to all new things. Join international student communities to make friends. I had a 25% scholarship which helped me a lot. I got it based on my previous grades. I did the first two years of my 2+2 course in India and got the scholarship based on those two years. The course is fine, and the university doesn't matter. The country is awesome. There are some problems, but no place is perfect. This is one of the best in my opinion. The minimum pay itself is very high, and jobs are available.
Likes (Indian Food): There are all types of food from around the world available, but the prices are quite high, especially for students. Eating out every day is not feasible, so I cook for myself, which is more cost-effective. There are tiffin services that provide two meals for 10-15 dollars, so that is another option.
Dislikes (Value for money): In Australia, nobody cares about your college but only your skills and network determine whether you get a job. Even if you do the same course at a college with much lower fees, it won't make any difference. When you apply for a job, there are two steps to getting your resume selected: one is knowing someone in the company, and the next is having the required skills. If you have no network or connections, you'll have to put in the same amount of effort whether you're from Melbourne University or any other college.

Deakin University has many opportunities and extensive student union programmes.
Tips: Deakin provides the Vice-Chancellor 100% meritorious scholarship which is a must-try for all those who want to study based on scholarship. Also, Deakin has multicultural aspects of education. So you will feel yourself as warm as in your home. Deakin Talent which is a co-allied organisation within Deakin allows students to have personalised job coaching, internship search and resume training. Deakin Legal Advocacy services are designed to safeguard the rights of students and also to assist with legal concerns. We also have peer mentor services and wonderful study guides. The faculty are extremely accessible and always available to help you out, solve your queries and support you. They conduct lectures, seminars and practicals so that students can get the best angle of understanding and the most surreal view of learning. The activities and interactions done during the teaching period are another great bonus that is a stepping stone towards building work-ready skills.
Likes (Internships): Deakin has numerous opportunities and an extensive student union programme. This allows us as students to exercise our full potential. The campus has all the facilities for students to learn and grow. We also have cultural events as well as sportive activities.

Wonderful college environment and life changing experience.
Tips: Coming to Australia and doing everything on your own will teach you essential life skills that will mould you into a person of character. Doing part-time jobs while managing assignment deadlines will test your time- mangled skills. Cooking healthy foods and avoiding the temptation to get takeout requires great self-control. On top of everything, you won't have your parents to tell you what to do, so self-discipline is the only thing that will take you places. All in all, it was a life-changing experience, and you should enjoy every minute of it.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): I would definitely love to settle in Australia, and one key point to remember is that as long as you have a job related to your field, you will get PR 99% of the time. Some degrees provide you with the ability to find work quickly, while others do not. However, as long as you have a good understanding of your subjects and a good skill set, you will find jobs after some time, which will help lead to PR.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I would suggest that the best way to save money is to cook your own food. There are a lot of Indian restaurants in Melbourne, and you can find a lot of vegetarian options on campus. There is also a nice Italian restaurant around the corner, and Subway and Domino's give student discounts to Deakin students.

I feel truly loved, accepted and supported at Deakin.
Tips: Deakin University is a great place to grow both your soft skills and technical skills. While there has not been any major cultural shift, I have definitely become more open to people from different cultural backgrounds and work well with them as a team. International students typically receive a scholarship of about 10-15%, and the university also offers a vice chancellor's scholarship, which provides a full scholarship to students who have demonstrated extraordinary extracurricular participation in their previous schools.
Likes (Internships): The university has its own internship programs, which provide students with opportunities to work in a corporate setting while they are still in school. This is a great type of internship opportunity for students. Deakin also has collaborations with other companies, so when those companies have openings, Deakin students get an edge over other applicants.
Dislikes (Part time work): The on-campus part-time jobs are great, but they are not always easy to get into because of their limited availability. The average pay is 21 to 22 dollars per hour, but some jobs at fuel stations pay 35 to 40 Dollars per hour.

Griffith University- Challenging and ideal student life.
Tips: I have always known the kind of life I'll be living here so it wasn't that hard to adjust. It took me 2 months to completely assimilate. I had a 25% tuition fee for the scholarship that I received with my offer letter. I had to maintain my GPA to keep the scholarship. College life at Griffith University is great. There are too many student council events, sports events, and cultural events to count. The events range from multicultural dinner nights to day trips to remote island resorts for driving ATVs. I participated in all the events. There are also many clubs and committees on campus. I was personally part of 8 of them across 3 universities in the city. You can even join a club or committee at a different university. Overall, I am very satisfied with my university and course.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Griffith University is a great school with a challenging curriculum and an ideal student life. However, it can be difficult to find post-study employment, as there is no set number of companies that offer sponsor visas. Additionally, the average salary is around 60,000 AUD per annum, excluding superannuation, which is 10-18% of salary.

Griffith has friendly environment. They help students
Tips: University has a friendly atmosphere. And organise many functions and events. If you are staying on campus you can attend most of the functions available. Also, transportation is an important thing in Australia as you would need a car to get everywhere on time.
Likes (Value for money): Classes are available for 2 hrs a week for each subject. We can access the library 24/7 as desktop computers are for public use. Different cultural events would be organised throughout the trimester for students. And club functions are also available.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Professors are all well-qualified and friendly in nature. We can communicate during study hours, and they are always available to clear doubts whenever needed. Professors of different nationalities are available for each subject as there is a minimum 3 professors for one subject.

Great campus experience, strategically located and well maintained.
Tips: Cultural shift we can observe in this country, especially people are in a party mood at weekends. Food was a major problem for Indian students in the initial days. Scholarship options of 20 to 25 percentage are available depending upon our academic credit.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Faculty members are mostly not from Australia and English-speaking countries, very difficult to understand during the initial days of joining. Online classes are a little bit tough to follow. Teaching methodology by using technology which is effective for studies.
Dislikes (Value for money): Course fee is little bit higher side compared to other colleges. Paying fees for 12 classes per subject per trimester. Scholarship options have to be carefully reviewed before joining. Have to score a minimum 5 per cent Gpa to retain scholarship every trimester.

University with a very welcoming and cheerful environment
Tips: Griffth college provide students with great lectures and excellent study materials with the best quality of education. It is one of the growing private colleges in Ireland which focuses on student success and there is no compromise in faculty teaching. I love the culture here and the college has a welcoming environment. If any belonging are lost it is kept under safe custody. The transition here was a little harder for me as there were no friends. Initially, the students were not that friendly to me but after some time it was better. I made some foreign friends who were very friendly and supportive. Here is a library in college, a sports ground and a canteen which is available most of the time from 8 in the morning till 6-7 at night. Some parties are hosted every weekend so you can use the auditorium as well. Overall I am very much satisfied with my course and college abroad.

A green and healthy campus
Tips: University has great location, it is very green around the university and it feels very fresh. The staff is very supportive and they are dedicated towards the academic case. It is a small college which I think is good as professors listen out to students more and also give individual attention. I've also heard from other fellows that the Alumni network is quite good. The alumni also help with the job search. The campus has students from many countries and they're pretty good to interact with. Some of our classes are taken online which is sometimes not good as it's better to be on campus and learn the way we have paid our fee for. There is also scope for some more clubs that are missing so that students can interact more on campus.
