Housing

Type of housing: Apartment/House

Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice

If returning, I would choose: Costs

Why?

I lived in College Square, near Uni Melb and I booked my apartment on the web. Never again! They charge exorbitant sums, tell you they give you a one bedroom when it really is a shoebox and you have no rights as a tenant.

Personal comments

This university is a corporation that is out to make money from International Students. An International Student's tuition is 7 times that of a local students and there are no reasonably priced on campus accommodations. Poor, very poor.
