Personal recommendation
Studying here is intense and some time too hectic because there are many small prijetcs and little time for in-depth studies. But the social life, the surroundings and travelling before and after the studies easily make up for that

Final comments
Please allow plenty of time before and/or after your stay at the AGSM for travelling the wonderful country of Australia. There are so many amazing things to see. You could considering buyin a car if you are staying for som month after the period of study. I did so and toured the country for three month.
