What students say about University of New South Wales


Likes

  • Its fairly self-explanatory; however, the lecturers themselves in maths overcomplicate the content to the point where questions are easier to understand than the content that is being questioned.
  • N/A, our college does not provide internships on its own, but they facilitate internships for us in clinical schools including Liverpool, Sutherland, Bankstown, St George, Prince of Wales, and St Vincents.
  • More than just placement, they have career fairs and industry meetups where I can talk to hiring managers and network.
  • Yes, I am a recipient of one of the most prestigious scholarships at the university.
  • We have ARC (student body), which organizes so many trips, picnics, tours, free food, movie nights, sports, etc.\nWe have two libraries, one is the Main Library and the other is the Law Library.
  • Sydney is one of the best student cities in the world, with world-class infrastructure and facilities.
  • The fee structure is simple and easily managed. Fees can be paid upfront or deferred through the governments fee help program, which postpones payment until you reach a certain income threshold. Payments will be deducted from your taxes.
  • The faculty is one of the best in the country, with professors being experts in their fields and having years of experience.
  • I am also a recipient of one of their most prestigious scholarships, which played a key role in my university selection.

  • 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.

  • 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.

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).

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.

Really good business school, high grad job expectations. Seem to be more up and coming and innovative than the other NSW alternative USYD. It is a bit further away, however, the people that go there seem to be less snobby and entitled.
