Queensland University of Technology (QUT)

I thought food was generally cheaper. Phone calls were of a similar price and calling home was not a problem as calling through the Internet is very cheap. Housing was slightly more expensive because the university was in the centre of a city. Nightlife was similar in price with beer and enterance fees matching that of the UK. Travel was always going to cost me more, because I had so much I wanted to see. However on a day to day basis I would have to say that public transport in Australia is far superior to that of the UK, with busses and trains being on time and cheaper.

Accomodation are usually paid by the fort-night (every two weeks--not monthly). Travel only gets more expensive the the US when you are flying but this should give way in the near future with more competition entering the Australia.

The level of expenses for Housing and Nightlife are lower than in Denmark. I spent more on travelling as I spent 5 weeks after my studies travelling on my own, which was why I from time to another joined arranged tours - which are quite costly.

Food is relatively cheap, but alcohol is a bit more expensive

more in travel because I travelled a lot! It's worth it

everything is expensive here
