Bachelor [Digital Media] From Central Queensland University

The Australian government provides a HECS-HELP system which allows students to attend University and get their degree before having to pay back anything until they reach a specific annual income threshold. Also, last year, because I received above-average grades whilst living in an area that is "underrepresented in higher education participation" I received a one-off support payment to assist with study and living costs.

A friend of mine already attended this University and spoke highly of it. Mum wanted to move away from our home town, and the University had a campus in an area we liked. Out of 4-5 Universities, I applied to, this one was my first preference based on the above information, and they accepted me. As it was my first preference, the way the QTAC application system worked meant I only received their offer.
