   It is essential to research before arriving in Australia. There are so many things to consider, including rental prices, tuition fees, book costs, transport, utilities and still being able to feed your self at the same time. Higher education will offer mean further expenses including compulsory excursions which will need to be paid for.
   
   The internet and government services will be able to assist the student in researching costs and the area where they will be renting. Always organise a rough budget before arriving in Australia, and be sure to have sufficient funds to support your self.
   
   Cost of living is different in each city of Australia, if the student can not afford to live in one city then maybe applying at a University in a different part of Australia is a safer option.
   
   Food and most other items in Australia have the addition of goods and services tax or GST, this means 10% is added to the price of foods. GST is monitored by the ACCC or Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, this ensures customers are not being over charged.
