About New South Wales

New South Wales is extremely student-friendly. Apart from the superior quality higher education it offers, students will also find a wealth of culture and an abundance of natural beauty. Although it is hard to beat Sydney when it comes to entertainment, but the clubs and the majestic opera that comes alive at night give it a good go.

The public transport system is well-developed, and the health care system is of a high class.

If you choose well, you can find living at a reasonable cost. Sydney and the other major cities can be expensive. Public transport, cheap shopping at a variety of markets and sharing accommodation will keep expenses in check.

The climate is fantastic and allows for great outdoor activities like enjoying the beaches, explore the forests or hike up the mountains.
