Ok folks. I have spoken with Joenamma about this, but thought I'd open a new thread and see what everyone else thinks about this.
I am planning on attending UQ. There are some very good options off-campus and on-campus. Here are some of the pros and cons of each:
Pros of On-Campus living: very convenient to classes. Catered meals and cleaning svc provided by individual colleges, which means more time to study and less time cooking/cleaning.
Also another plus is utilities and internet are included in fees.
Cons of On-campus living: loud undergraduate environment. less privacy.
Pros of OFF-CAMPUS housing:
More privacy, and quieter living environment. Spacious apt for the same price as on-campus room.
CONS of OFF-CAMPUS housing:
-paying for internet.
-cooking and cleaning responsibilities.
-slightly distant to classes.
Can people please comment on my above break down, and make any open suggestions as to what their views are.
Also, if anyone knows of another alternative, will they kindly share it with us.
thanks in advance.
