University Of Technology Sydney - [UTS], Sydney, New South Wales - Accommodation

Accommodation facilities in Sydney depends upon the Suburb you choose to live in. If you want to live next to the campus the rates are comparatively high but you save the commute time whereas if you want to live far from University, you might get cheaper options but you have to commute to reach the University. UTS provides accomodations in the nearby area of the campus which has sharing and non sharing options. They are on first come first serve basis. The accommodation is always in great demand. Other private alternatives include Urbannest, Igloo and UniLodge which also provides great modern infrastructure and are located near to University area.

There were few factors which I considered for deciding the University. First, UTS was leading university in Australia in Technology Sector. Second, UTS is located in the heart of the City (Central), which is very convenient. The course curriculum was one the best that I found amongst all the University I shortlisted.

For accommodation, school offers different lodges, it is not inside the campus. The accommodation is quite good but its a bit costly.

It is located in the heart of the city, they take a global approach to education that has innovation at its core. They align all the courses closely with industry needs, so what you learn will prepare you for your future career.

I chose this university because of its practical-oriented nature of education and the course subjects are designed well.

The Housing facility offers a variety of options to International students. It has 4-5 different housing options to choose from with varying rates but all of which are within a maximum of 15-20 minutes walking distance from the University's main building. They also have sharing options within these housings which range from double sharing to 4, 6, or 7 sharing. Apart from this they also offer studio apartments. The housing is comfortable and efficient for students.

I chose the University for its ranking as the 11th youngest University in Australia as well as because it is one of the top business schools in Australia.

Well, it’s a 2bhk apartment in Pyrmont located in Sydney CBD. We have all the facilities over here ranging from lift access to the washing machine, wifi, dryer, and 24-7 hot water availability. For this apartment, I pay 275 dollars per two weeks.

UTS ranks among the top universities along with its great infrastructure and top-notch professors. Such a scholarship of 25% fee waiver at such a reputed institution insisted I accept the admission letter. While other factors like a part-time job working hours and future job perspective inspired me to join the course.

I live at UTS housing but it is off-campus. It is $320 a fortnight but I do get a small meal allowance to help me get through the fortnight. I do struggle with money as I haven't got a job here (very difficult) even with my RSA

UTS is the most progressive and socially active university . They are also very updated with their facilities in regards to technology. They have a huge international section so you feel as if you fit in no matter where you?re from. They have three main pillars- Aboriginal teachings, technology and social justice. I think these are very impressive and important to have as it helps create a better society. UTS is also very helpful to international students, offering great options for housing and help out where they can

Reputation and it has practical oriented course. There are career fairs which don't help that much to international students without PR. But there are a few ones which can definitely increase the chances of getting in without the PR. These would be usually small companies. It also has nearby Off-campus as it is cheap and it is near uni as well. The uni accommodation is quite expensive and I don't think many students can afford it.

Because UTS is one of the best universities in Sydney and Australia. It also offers a lot of degrees not offered in other universities like Digital and Social Media. The application fee is reasonable as the quality of the university is really good. The admission process I had to go through was the IELTS test and make sure I have a good average score in my school report.

I live in a private residence. However, I know people who live in a share-accommodation run by an organization that is affiliated with the university (UrbanNest and Yura). No meals are provided at either as far as I know.

I was most interested in what I regard as the top three universities in Sydney, which are the University of Sydney, University of New South Wales and also the University of Technology Sydney. I do not have high academic regard for ACU or Macquarie so I was aiming for one of the three I have listed. I attended the open days for all universities and fell in love with Sydney University and had my heart set on going there. I went to the UNSW open day and didn't like UNSW at all. I didn't like the campus, I just had a weird feeling about it, it was awkward to get to and I didn't know many people going there. I was not as interested in going to UTS as I thought the whole campus was the one tower building, which is quite ugly. But then when I attended the open day, I liked the feel of the campus, having had the opportunity to walk around and see what the campus was. When it came time to choose my university through UAC and which courses I was applying for, I realised that my results probably would not lend to getting into the Business degree at Sydney Uni, as I was initially applying for a double degree in business and international studies, which had a very high ATAR score at USYD. When the results were released, I had gotten into UTS and received an early entry offer from UNSW for a similar course. I chose UTS as I did not like UNSW and didn?t get the results I needed for USYD.
