English proficiency plays an important role in applying for scholarships. Applicants need to prove that they have the English proficiency required for career development skills.

3. Reference of living expenses for studying in Australia

1, clothing

Clothes are consumables and have strong seasonality. Besides, everyone likes the new and hates the old. Many clothes are basically thrown away in the season, and they don't want to wear them after one season, especially abroad, so there is no need to buy luxury goods.

Ordinary students will buy new clothes every month, and students who save a little will choose to buy clothes season by season. Even so, the annual expenditure on clothing is not low, at least 2,000 Australian dollars is needed.

However, the climate in Australia is very good. The temperature is relatively high throughout the year, and the climate is warm and humid. It should be noted that you don't need to bring down and cotton-padded clothes. When you arrive in Australia, you basically don't need to buy these, which can save a lot of money.

Step 2 eat and cook

Three meals a day, every meal can not be less, such a high frequency, means that it will not be cheap, but this does not mean that there is no way to save.

Australia, located in the southern hemisphere, not only has a unique geographical position, but also has unique dining habits. The topography of the island brings a lot of rich seafood, including lobster, crab and marine fish.

However, as a world-famous immigrant country, in Australia, you can also eat delicious food from all over the world, including Chinese food. Due to the large number of Chinese in Australia, authentic Chinese restaurants are very popular.

The cost of eating a year is about 7,000 Australian dollars. If you cook by yourself most of the time and eat out occasionally, you can save about 1000 Australian dollars.

Step 3 rent a house

The cost of accommodation is undoubtedly the cost of living. Living in a dormitory is very different from renting a house. Renting a house is more expensive than living on campus as a whole.

Student dormitories are generally paid weekly, and the weekly price is between 150-500 Australian dollars. The better the environment, the more expensive it is. You can choose a single room or multiple rooms. The school dormitory fee in big cities will be higher than that in small cities.

If you rent a house off campus, there will be more choices, but in order to save money, most students choose to find several classmates or friends to share it. Generally, one month 1500 Australian dollars, with water and electricity added equally.

Based on the above, we can calculate that the comprehensive accommodation fee for studying in Australia for one year is between 10000-20000 Australian dollars.

Step 4 transport

Opaque card is used by buses and trains, and it is a kind of bus card in Sydney. Travelers must use Opaque card. Compared with buses, trains are the most important mode of transportation in Sydney. If you need to go to school by public transport every day, the cost is about 30 Australian dollars.

About buying a car in Australia, you can usually buy a good car for ten or twenty thousand dollars. But if you go to school in the city, there is no need to buy a car, because it is not only difficult to park, but also the traffic jam is serious. Parking in CBD is one hour near 30 yuan. According to public transportation: AU$30×4=AU$ 120.
