I d say go to university of sydney it has that atmosphere your ivy league unis have,you could live in a house or apartment up to you.Also your course no matter which uni you go to will mostly consist of australians so it wouldnt make much of a difference which ever uni you go to.dirtybeatles said:The Australian National University, Canberra
Flinders University, Adelaide
La Trobe University, Melbourne
Monash University, Melbourne
The University of Adelaide
The University of Melbourne
The University of New South Wales, Sydney
The University of Queensland, Brisbane
The University of Sydney
University of Tasmania, Hobart
The University of Western Australia, Perth
University of Wollongong
But if you want the full aussie uni go to wollongong,there arent as many international students compared with the main 3 unis in the city of sydney,yeah the downside is thatits not close to city but they do have heaps of those parties you are after,the school based house parties.
