Personal social experience
Describe host city: Students equally interact with the local and student community
Activities: Takes place mostly within the university/student environment Nightlife, Travel: Takes place both within and outside of the university/student environment Personal comments:
Best places are down at Broadbeach such as cafe and bars. Main Beach is excellent as well. Burleigh Heads has a nice bar overlooking the beach, the Latin nights there are great with nice music, directly looking over the Pacific.

My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
Humanities type courses are getting better but still lacking in some areas. especially advertising. All Business courses however are good, and the business school demands are high standard since the numbers of students to teachers is very low, making it very good. Tuition fees are expensive. Group projects are damm frustrating, given the terms are so short......
My opinion of the university assessment
Personal comments:
Yes, consider doing 3 subjects instead of 4. The workload can be very very heavy and intense, especially given each semester is around 12 weeks..... This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Language difficulties
Language of instruction: English
Was learning English a key decision factor?
No, it wasn't. Personal comments:
I am advanced in French- I have taken it for over 6 years. In Spanish I have taken two semesters worth of the language; this is my first semester of Japanese here at Bond, but I often converse with Japanese international students here.
