Actually, this is interesting. Here's what the University of Technology, Sydney, says about Sydney's cost of living, from a student's viewpoint. There's more info here.
If you're thinking of studying in Sydney you may need to know what it will cost to support yourself. Obvious things that come to mind are accommodation, food, clothes and child care.
At UTS we estimate that an international student requires a minimum of $13,000 to $16,000 for living expenses for each academic year.
Initial establishment costs for a shared apartment, such as rental bonds for accommodation, electricity, gas and telephone, could add up to at least $1,500. See the list below for more detailed information:

When you are estimating the cost of living in Australia, one important thing to note is that on July 1, 2000 a 10% Goods and Services (GST) Tax was introduced in Australia affecting the cost of some products and services. The good news is that many foods (including meat, fruit and vegetables), exports, most education and health services, some childcare, care for the disabled and a range of other goods and services are GST-free.
The Australian Bureau Of Statistics will provide much more information than you require in a far more boring manner than I can muster, also. |
