Poor course, great university, great country, and networking is preferred over skills.

Tips: My Indian University hired a VISA consultant who did most of the application work and I prepared for my IELTS to transition here, taking the entire process about 5 months. The difference was too much availability of non-vegetarian food such as beef, pork, chicken, fish etc. which you might also have to deal with at part-time jobs and expensive vegetarian food if eating out. Further, the weather here is unpredictable as rain can downpour anytime. Cleaning standards are high here and dust does not...

Deakin University has great environment and infrastructure.

Tips: I got a 20% scholarship based on my merit, which was a nice surprise. The faculty are very approachable, helpful, and understanding, and will guide you throughout your college experience. My advice to new students is to take your time, observe, and try to understand the cultural shift. Overall, I'm satisfied with my university in terms of infrastructure and environment.

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 e...

Multidimensional, multicultural and engaging.

Tips: Students should be open to new opportunities. Networking is key to gaining success in your field. Scholarships depend on how well you've fared in your undergrad course. I received a 75% scholarship based on the same. I'm quite satisfied with the university, the course as well as the country.

Likes (Permanent Immigration): My chances are quite wide since many organisations in sports are on the lookout for fresh graduates and a pool of talent. Given a chance, I would surely permanently migrate here since Australia has a great s...

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 participatio...

Pretty good university but it is very expensive.

Tips: Students should know that there is a little bit of a cultural shift initially but then it was quite alright. I got a 20% scholarship but the fee is still very high. The university is good not bad many people from all over the world and the teachers are highly educated Overall it's pretty good I like it here.

Balanced education and opportunities in a vibrant environment.

Tips: Before joining this college, students should be prepared for a rigorous academic environment that emphasizes independent learning and self-management. The transition to Australia was smooth, but adapting to a more self-directed study approach and managing time effectively was essential. I was fortunate to receive a 20% merit-based scholarship, awarded based on my academic background, which helped ease some of the financial burden and covered part of my tuition fees.
