Further Reading: Accommodation for Studying in Australia

First, the choice of study abroad accommodation

1, choose according to the factors you are more concerned about. For example, if you care about safety, then go to the dormitory of the school. If you want to cultivate independence, rent your own house outside.

2. Choose according to the accommodation fee. If the budget is large, choose a place with a better environment. If the budget is small, of course, choose a more affordable way of living.

3. Choose according to your own needs. If you want to have more complete facilities, then choose the accommodation mode with complete facilities in all aspects.

Second, the cost of accommodation

1, campus dormitory

In fact, most schools in Australia have student dormitories. These dorms are for international students or students who live far away from home. It is convenient to live in the school and close to the classroom. In terms of facilities, these dormitories are basically furniture and the like, and safety can also reassure students. Living in the dormitory for a week is about 200-500 Australian dollars.

2. Host family

This is also a way of accommodation chosen by many students, which is very suitable for those students who have just arrived in Australia, are unfamiliar with it, or are younger. Living in a host family can not only really feel the Australian way of life, but also help you improve your language. So this kind of accommodation is a good choice. If you live in a host family, it is generally 200-300 Australian dollars a week, and the students' meals are all included.

3, off-campus rental

There are generally two forms of renting a house. One is to rent a student apartment, but share it with your friends, which is also a common way of life for international students. Renting a house by yourself can not only exercise independence, but also cost less, and you can choose a room with your own style.

Just sharing a house with others still needs to consider more, such as the landlord, price and so on. We should know all the rules of life so that we can know what to prepare. If there is unfair treatment in the process of renting, you can find the school office in charge of accommodation and communicate with the staff. The general school will contact the relevant departments of the community to solve it.

In terms of cost, if you live in a single room, it is generally 220-300 Australian dollars a week, and a double room is about 300-350 Australian dollars.

Extended reading: common sense of studying in Australia

First, clothes

The climate in Australia is quite suitable, especially in several cities where Australian universities are located. It is not very cold in winter and not very hot in summer. Australians dress very simply, as long as they are comfortable. On some important occasions, they will dress more formally and look generous and elegant. In normal life, you are more casual and casual. Wear a t-shirt and jeans. Australian clothes are not very cheap. You brought enough clothes from China to Australia.

Second, food.

Australia's diet is similar to western food, and it also eats meat and pasta. Because Australia is a country near the sea, seafood is also their main food. Seafood with different cooking methods. If you study in Australia and eat three meals out every day, the cost will not be cheap. If you want to save some living expenses, you can buy some fresh vegetables in the market and cook in your place. If you can cook by yourself every day, you can save a lot of money.

Three. residence

In Australia, foreign students' schools will provide students with dormitories, which will be relatively convenient and safe, but the cost is several times that of the outside houses, and they can't cook in the dormitories. You can only eat in the school cafeteria or outside the restaurant. If you live in a host family, you don't have to worry about your diet. They will get everything ready for you. Living here requires students to get along well with Australians and communicate smoothly. It is not easy to rent a house outside. You have to go out and find it yourself. I can't find it far from the school. Moreover, there is a lot of complicated housing information now, so be careful not to be cheated by those people.

Fourth, traffic.

The traffic in Australia is still very developed. There are buses, trams and trains here. The vehicles are running according to the timetable. If you often have to take a bus, you should buy a monthly ticket. For students, there will be no high price, only a preferential price. Students who usually live on campus don't have to take the bus for class. If you want to shop or play outside school, you must take a bus. Students who live far away from school have to go to class by bus every day.

Further reading: considerations for studying abroad loans in Australia

First, the loan for studying in Australia must have the word "studying abroad"

The loan for studying in Australia must have the word "studying abroad". Because the Immigration Bureau only recognizes loans for the purpose of "studying abroad", other forms of loans such as car loans, mortgages or other consumer loans are not recognized by the Immigration Bureau. Therefore, the word "study abroad" must be on the contract or other supporting documents of the Australian study abroad loan.

Second, follow the principle of more loans and less loans.

The loan for studying in Australia needs to follow the principle of more loans and less loans. The loan for studying in Australia is not provided to applicants who are financially unable to provide funds, but to those who are financially able but whose deposit history does not meet the deadline of the Immigration Bureau. Generally speaking, when applying for a loan for studying abroad, the bank will require the applicant to pledge a certain amount of funds or provide collateral according to the loan amount applied by the applicant.

For example, if an applicant applies for a loan of 400,000 yuan for studying abroad in a bank, the bank will require the applicant to pledge about 450,000 yuan in the bank according to its 90% lending principle. After the applicant deposits the pledge, the bank will transfer the 400,000 yuan study abroad loan to the applicant's account. This situation is true: more loans, less loans for studying abroad.

Loans for studying in Australia with less loans and more loans will be refused. However, in the process of assisting students to apply for visas, it is also found that some banks provide less loans and more loans. For example, students can get a loan of 300,000 yuan for studying abroad from the bank only by pledging 30,000 yuan. This kind of loan does not meet the requirements of the immigration bureau, and usually the bank will not allow the applicant to borrow less and get more money. Once this kind of study abroad loan is investigated by the embassy, it will definitely be refused.
