"I've felt at home in Swinburne mainly because of the multicultural atmosphere. I need not worry about racial issues here and the people are really great whether international or locals.

One plus factor I like in Swinburne is the public transport – it's very accessible. I think it is one of the main factors to consider for international students.

Australia is far better than other countries because I feel it's safe compared to some European countries and America.

I have recommended Swinburne to my fellow co-workers back home.

The university really takes care and prioritises its international students. The feedback from other AusAID students from the Phillippines is that they don't have such active and dedicated staff. I feel lucky that I've been able to attend and participate in all the social trips that were organised by Swinburne International."
