ratingOverall experience

Loves it so far. To take each day at a time and always get to know anyone and everyone you can. Stay positive and find motivation and inspiration all around you.

ratingSelection process and gaining admission

Wasn’t too difficult. Just filled in some forms, send it in, got an offer, paid the fee, applied for my student visa and that was it.

ratingYour study experience

Was difficult in second year but gradually got better. It was easy in first year I must say. Never study during the week but the week before the exam, spend about 5 hours a day studying. Tutors are great! Lecturers can be boring but some were fun. Received study support from seniors and friends mostly. Definitely value for money.

ratingYour life experience

Uni facilities are OK – not bad not good. I enjoy the sceneries, stories, food and all the good food in country side. Students and locals are generally friendly – they drop food and goodies every now and then. Accommodation is fantastic – just right next to Adelaide’s most developed beach, Glenelg. It was easy for me to find a part-time job, found one within a month I was here, and changed job last year – now a tutor in uni and it pays really well too – just 4 hours work is enough for my rent and daily expenses for a week. Student Union sucks – they should organize more stuff. I am a Youth Ambassador for Reach Out! (www.reachout.com.au) which gives me the opportunity to travel all over Australia – I fly down to Melbourne and Sydney every three months. I get to meet prominent leaders all over Australia like the Prime Minister, CEO of Macquarie Bank, Olympic Champion Cathy Freeman AOC, Ben Darwin and Ministers in South Australia. I get to attend events and summits, and most of all, I get to meet young people and speak to them and hear their stories and struggles and bring the idea to summits and meetings. I also design, develop and provide feedback for contents and represent the organization at events like gigs and concerts, and on TV, radio channels, and press conferences.

ratingJob prospects

Absolutely to both questions! I don’t know of any alumni association.
