University of Newcastle (UON) Reviews and Ratings

• There are many student accommodation agents who'll help in finding accommodation, i found an house through Facebook where an person posted rooms available and through that, I was able to get accommodation.
• The weekly rent of my accommodation is 200 aud, which comes to 800 aud per month, it includes all electricity and water bill, along with wifi. The room includes a single bed, a study table, and a wardrobe. And the bathrooms are common.
• Finding accommodation based on our preferences, such as location and price, is tough; either we have to find further from the university for less rent or pay high prices to meet our preferences.
• For future students, try to book accommodation through some students already studying there, as they might know some cheaper rental options available and try to get a part-time job as soon as possible to be able to earn enough to choose the accommodation you prefer, as those might help you expand your options when searching for rent.

The university of Newcastle is a fantastic place to study and the opportunities available are numerous. The infrastructure and quality of research is world-class, as are some of the lecturers.

I opted for this college as it has a smaller cohort than other universities in NSW. There is less competition to gain entry with a lower ATAR required. Located up the coast, it has more opportunities to partner with professional sport clubs whereas Sydney universities are competing with others to participate in placement and sporting opportunities.

Every since my high school, I had the aspirations to pursue my graduation in a reputed foreign university. I choose University of Newcastle because of its ideal location, which is perfect for work life balance. Due to Newcastle being near Sydney, that allows me to be close knit to my extended family living in Sydney and catch up on weekends. carried a strong passion towards accounting & finance, and I can clearly comprehend the importance of my field of study for some global player to tap the global market or economy.

Good program, relatively close to home. I only got into two options for medicine, one of which was Adelaide which is a plane trip away for me. Newcastle (while it is 5 hours away) was closer and provided a city close to that of my hometown (Canberra). The program is also highly regarded, I think it's the 3rd best program in Australia and I like the learning structure.

Location- close to home and I can't afford to live out of home, the quality of education is high, and most courses have high employment rates after graduation. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the facilities are of high quality.

It was the local/nearby campus which allowed me to live at home (with parents) whilst studying to save money as accommodation options were very expensive. It also offered the course I was interested in completing and my year advisor at school recommended the local university to all students.
