Tips: The University of Western Australia is a prestigious university with a good international ranking. I got the Global Excellence scholarship which depends on the marks scored in Bachelors the details of which can be found on the University website. Australia is good in terms of abundant resources and opportunities here. The course is taught by illustrious professors excelling in the field.

Likes (Indian Food): Indian food ingredients are available here. There are several Indian restaurants here too. The typical Indian food will be available only at the Indian stores which are a little far in the suburbs. Although it will be expensive. The University food at the cafeteria is fine and helps when there is a small gap between the classes.

Dislikes (Public transportation): The public transportation is okay in terms of connectivity with the campus. It is better to find accommodation near the University as it will save lots of time. Finding accommodation in Perth is competitive nowadays due to a huge influx of students now.

UWA provides you vast future job opportunities and great learning experience as well.

Tips: Study style and the level of study are a bit different here as compared to India. Here the main focus lies on practical knowledge and building your skill set for future job opportunities rather than on theoretical knowledge. The teaching staff is also very friendly and helpful here.

Likes (Public transportation): The transportation facility in Perth is amazing. And being a student it's cheaper too. There are bus and train services that connect to the university and they are scheduled every 10-15 mins. You just need to get a TransPerth card and with a tap of a card you can easily travel anywhere in Perth and that too at affordable prices. Even there is a bus service called CAT and that is free of cost.

Dislikes (Indian Food): Being a vegetarian gets a little tough in Perth. As there are limited options in vegetarian food as compared to non-veg items and if available they are a little expensive and you might have to travel a bit to have some good authentic vegetarian Indian food. I usually prefer to cook on my own.

The university is good but competitive.

Tips: Perth is a quiet city with weather that is different from India. The UV component is high, as it is in any part of Australia. You should be open to adapting to all of these changes. Before you enroll, take a good look at the curriculum. You can also apply for international student scholarships.

Likes (Student Life): The campus is always hopping with something going on, usually events organized by the various clubs. You'll have a good time with friends, but be aware that the university workload is different from the Indian system, and time flies by. It's important to maintain a healthy work-life balance.

Dislikes (Indian Food): It shall be a hard city to live in for vegetarians. Perth is one of the highest meant consuming cities in the world. Learn to cook for yourself. Even for a meat eater, the food is expensive. Be prepared to cook but at least you have a fallback option in case you are running late.

Life studying in the University of Western Australia is very stressful but worth it.

Tips: Life at the University of Western Australia is a bit of a struggle at first. You have to juggle studies, household chores, and a part-time job. But you get used to it over time. The scholarship is based on your undergraduate marks, and you need at least a minimum of 12000 for the entire course. Overall, my experience here has been really good, and I'm glad I had the opportunity to study here.
