Hi everyone! I was wondering which university is better? (eg. cost of living, job prospects, living environment) I have also heard that it's easier to score for your grades in Monash rather than Melbourne? Is there any truth to that? Thank you so much for any help on this matter! I've been lurking around the internet for days, but I haven't got the info i wanted. Ps. I am an international student so cost of living is quite high in the priority list

Is the difference of the cost of living between the two cities significant? Or is it just a few dollars? Thanks again fot your reply!

My bestfriend attends Monash. The price differences is significant. We're talking a couple hundred dollars. It's cheap to live in Southeast Melbourne along the Frankston Line (Anywhere before Frankston as Frankston isn't safe). I live in Southeast Melbourne, it's cheap vs. the CBD/City.

I'm taking Bachelor of Commerce. Do you think employers would take into account between the two universities?

Monash is one of the best universities in Melbourne. It's like comparing Apples to Oranges.
