- The university is very well connected and a great area for networking with like minded connections.
- The exposure that the university offers is a healthy competition and motivates to go beyond your limits and excel.
Dislikes
- The academics is thorough over here and very cumbersome, it is not an easy task to manage time and academics along with other activities but teaches you how to handle pressure
- The accommodation facility through UNSW is provided, but it depends on the student's budget and preference. The student rental is much more costly on campus than off campus. You can look for rentals through realstate.au, domain. au, and through Facebook groups and marketplace.
- Beware of the scams, as there are a lot of scams that go with the international students, so do not proceed without doing proper inspections and contract reading. The average rent in a shared room is 200 AUD to 300 AUD, depending on the location of the property and how far it is from the main city

- I came across this University co-incidentally when I was looking for courses in Systems Engineering and as it was one of the few universities to provide the course, I applied for it. Also, I was primarily looking in Australia and I was keen to pursue my Masters here.
- Coming from a different country, I think it’s most important for a foreign student to feel welcomed and the University was not short of that. I loved the University environment. The supportive staff and professors and the quality of education.
Dislikes
- There weren’t many scholarship opportunities at the time and the fees could be lowered or making a provision for international students to work to pay some portion of the student fees. Not much support in terms of part-time jobs or even work after graduation.
It was a fulfilling experience studying at UNSW and I would recommend this university to anyone looking to pursue further education. It is an experience that really makes you grow and provides a good exposure.

- UNSW is ranked and quite well known for Civil Engineering to be specific. The course offers structural engineering specialization and is quite flexible and industry oriented.
- Course curriculum is roughly as per industry standards and professor is really approachable. You can contact them and ask any questions. They are supportive and will guide you.
- UNSW has lot of events related to Career, Industry meet, career fairs, etc. where you actually get to talk to hiring managers, different companies, etc. .it's provides a plenty of networking opportunities.
Dislikes
- I won't say I dislike it. However, for masters, schedule is realky flexible and it's just 10-12 hrs per week. You gets loads of time and sometimes it could be a curse more than blessing. Apart from that, I feel campus is full of events and you could end up being distracted from your ling term goal .
This has been life changing and exciting. I became more independent, understood how to manage my time efficiently and how to strike a balance in life. I became more empathetic towards people, and got a new perspective by meeting new people.
I like the country and future prospects in my field of study. I am also a recipient of one of their most prestigious scholarships which played a key role in me selecting my university. I have always been interested in Computer Science and UNSW being the best in the country for STEM education, I chose it for my undergraduate degree.
Location is ideal, super safe, ranks well in world rating and a very diverse community with many specialized subjects
I've applied for 3 other universities such as UTS, WSU, USYD alongside UNSW and I've accepted my offer at UNSW due to its environment and study culture. My experience at UNSW open day also played a major role as well. However, there are times when I wish I would be studying at another institute, the reason being is due to trimesters. There is too much workload in a short period that students have now.
Prestige and ranking mainly, however, the student life was fantastic. Additionally, the university provided excellent support in my application and accommodation requests. I was also able to find a job relatively easily during university which contributed greatly to my employability upon graduation. Another of my friends also attended this university with great reviews.
Only one of two reputable universities providing my degree and this one allows for better involvement in campus life (the other option was Sydney Conservatorium of Music and being on a separate campus and only having 750 students limits opportunities).
Location and the degree suited my needs and were a very flexible option for my abilities and goal for the future. I also really like the environment and the people at UNSW and the amount of social networking that occurs is amazing.
The quality of education and the location. It is ranked amongst the top 50 universities for the medicine program. Sydney also offers an environment to learn and have fun at the same time. As an international student safety was also one of my priorities.
