“Amazing place to study and learn. Very friendly environment”
James N
Australia, Undergraduate
Business Studies, 2016
OverallI felt that the University of South Australia supported me throughout my whole bachelors degree.
The uni always had open lines of communication that I could utilise if I required clarification on a assignment or a topic that I was studying.
The tutors and lecturers always had time for me and I always felt comfortable reaching out to them.
The campus was always clean and the Cafe always had fresh and awsome tasting food.

Australia is a good place to travel. If you are a little gruop of people you can buy a very cheep car. There are very cheep cars for backpackers...perfect to travel on the road; you can resell it at the end of the experience. Burocracy to buy and sell the car is extremly efficent.
To rest during your trip don't esitate to stop in some hostel...they are very cheap; to do this it's a good thing to have a book guide.

Travel as much as your budget allows you during the vacations and after the semester!
Accomodation: Living by the sea is really nice,but you have to take into account that it takes you longer to get to uni (in my case 50 min)and that it's more expensive.

I can't speak enough about travelling Australia. Of everyone I know, I by far saw this country in and out and somehow managed to get a semester's credit. The people I met I still talk to almost on a daily basis. Australia seems more of my home than Ohio, and I was only there six months. I'd recommend it to anybody.

UniSA has specific programs, make sure you know what you want to study before attending! Otherwise, there is a neighboring university with more options!

It's hard to put it into writing, believe me I've tried. Don't pass it up, that's really all I have. Oh, AND book your flight weeks and weeks after the semester ends to travel even more. It's worth seeing this place. I'm not hesitant to call it a paradise.

An ERASMUS grant
Work opportunities:
I didn't explore any work options
Personal spending habits
At home I stay with my mother, so i don't pay for housing. Concerning nightlife, I spent more because I went out more. Drinks were actually even a bit cheaper than in Vienna.
Travelling: I travelled for 2 and a half months after the semester, that's why I spent a lot.
