How do universities compare?
To complement the independent and objective ratings and information on www.gooduniguide.com.au, as well as information supplied to future students by the universities themselves, Hobsons has recently launched the only student ratings website in Australia, www.rateyouruni.com.au.
Current students offer valuable comments and give universities 1-5 stars across twenty different criteria. The quality of teaching, various facilities and social events, as well as access to public transport, car parking and various support services are just some areas that are rated.
It would certainly be worthwhile for students intending to go to university next year to have a look at the site and filter the ratings according to the features they believe are most important to them.
