The University of Western Sydney has an acceptable level of tuition fee, so I decided to study there. I had a lot of hard time with my finances so I think that would be the best choice for me. The most important advice I could give to you is that try hard to study and you will be successful.
The admin staff was very helpful with the paperwork. I recieved all the help that I needed in due time. I think their services were great. In order to have a stress-free application, you need to be careful to prepare and do things based on the instructions.
I did not have any funding or scholarships. My parents paid for all tuition and I worked part time to earn a living. In order to secure financial assistance, you should be careful to leave some extra savings in case the situations get worse.
The course is very value for money. The best bits are that you should be careful and have a well-developed plan, so that you will be heading the right direction. I received all kinds of assistance that I needed. The course is well-structured. But the end of semester exams were very hard,. Sometimes I just slept for 2 hours during exam periods.
My university experience was wonderful. Sydney is a big city, and I think the weather in Sydney is so cool. The fellow students are very friendly, accommodation is very cheap in my area, because Western Sydney is a further area compared to the CBD. I had a part time job as an assistant in a course. I did not join any clubs or societies.
My job prospects will definitely increase, I had just finished my studies and I will look for a job in Australia. I will keep in touch with other friends in the course. I will definitely join the alumni association.
