Have you considered other interstate unis? Queensland is decent, so is Melbourne. If you REALLY want to experience college life away from your parents, go to Tasmania. You're separated from Sydney by a state and a body of water.

Haha, the reason they give out those scholarships is to try and rope you into their uni, cos they're desperate for smart students to raise their prestige.

It depends what course you want to do.
For some courses/careers, what uni you go to really does affect whether you get a job over other grad students.
