Study Nursing in Australia.
Education in Australia has developed greatly over the past few years. Therefore, a high
quality of medical education is irrefutable. However, choosing the most feasible
university that specializes in Nursing is quite hard and confusing. This report discusses
the three most practicable choices of universities for international students who are
looking for a suitable investment for their future, namely the University of Queensland
(UQ), University of Melbourne(UM) and Monash University(MU) and compares them
with prefer to fees, status and living cost; location and transport; international students
and support so as to find out the most feasible one.


There is a similarity and several differences among these universities in relation to
course fees, status and living cost. First, all three universities share the approximate
average amount of Nursing fees in Australia. Going into detail, MU has highest fees with
77,940$ in 3 years, UQ takes the second place with 75,900$ in 3 years and UM is in the
last position that just about 24,100$ per year. Second, UQ and MU are not as old as
UM, which is the oldest and most prestigious among them. However, living in UM’s area
is much more expensive than the others which is ranked as high living cost while
moderate is the rank of both UQ and MU.

The locations and public transportations are different and quiet similar in these
universities. Despite of be nearing suburban area, MU is the furthest campus to their
downtown and bus is the only option so 40 minutes is needed to move to the CBD. In
contrast, UQ and UM are surrounded with city retail, entertainment and services. At UM,
students just need 5 minutes to move to CBD by trams or on foot, but at UQ, 20 minutes
is taken when using buses or ferries

These universities differ with reference to international student numbers and
student support. Native student percentage is roughly about 76% at UQ while these
percentages are slightly lower with 73% and 75% at MU and UM in respectively. In
addition, these names have their own diverse student supports such as
International student advisor, peer support and language classes.


In conclusion, these candidates have their own distinguishing features. However, MU
is seemed to be the least viable selection because of its quiet high living cost. The two
rest ones provide the same course with lower fees than MU but UM would be the
excellent choice if its local students are quiet higher. For these reasons, UQ is
considered as an acceptable choice for regular foreign students.

Are you going to submit your essay to a teacher/tutor for marking/grading?
