Brisbane is one of the three famous attractions in Australia. It is located north of the Sunshine Coast and south of the Gold Coast. Prestigious universities such as the University of Queensland, Griffith University, and Bond University are situated here.👍
When renting a house in Brisbane, there are several options available.
1. University dormitories: Not highly recommended. Although they have advantages such as various welfare and activities organized by the university, cleaning services, and opportunities to interact with students from around the world, it can be a nightmare for most introverted students in China. Moreover, dormitories are difficult to apply for and quite expensive.
2. Student apartments: The best thing about student apartments is their advantageous location, close to the university and convenient for daily life. They also offer various facilities. The prices are relatively cheaper compared to apartments and dormitories.
3. Apartments: Apartments can be expensive, and sometimes they may not come with various amenities, requiring you to purchase them yourself. Not highly recommended.
4. Houses: Houses are relatively cheaper, and many landlords are Chinese parents supporting their children's studies. Communication is easier. You can share a house with 4-6 classmates, sharing the kitchen and bathroom. It's also a good option. (Recommended)
In terms of areas, it is recommended to choose the City and St Lucia. They are close to the university and offer convenient living. If you prefer a lively and bustling environment, choose the City. If you want to be closer to the university, choose St Lucia. Other areas have cheaper rents, but you should consider the transportation costs for commuting to school and shopping.
