Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Home university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why?
The on campus life allows exchange students to really get a feel of the people there. I met 5 of my best friends from living on Res, and I am going back to see them soon!

Personal comments
The flats were cleaned once every 6 weeks or so, so the rest of the time, all of the flatmates were responsible for cleaning...which didn't happen very often. The RAs attempted to get us to keep the flats clean with a duties delegation list, but no one in my flat stuck to it. Other flats, however, were spotless. I think it was just the people that I lived with.
The accomodations office was very helpful in any matters that I needed resolved.

I like to share house with other students and get to choose your sharemate, it's fun to live with other people in the same house, you establish friendship with them and have someone to keep you company

I never lived on campus, couple of friends did, the room was small, but they have heaps of fun to live on campus, and it's easy to mix with local and international students.

Personal comments
The university staff helped a lot to find the right accomodation for all new international students. There was now on campus accomodation, which I would have preferred. But in the end it was very nice to live in the city next door to permantent australian residents and other students.

Why?
You have more choices than living on campus and its cheaper. More flexible like you live right in town. If you want to live even cheaper, you should look for houses in suburbs out of Surfers Paradise.

The University helps you at the first day to see some apartments. That was enough and i thought it was nice.
