Helpful Tips for finding accommodation in Australia
We know finding suitable accommodation can be a challenge for international students at this time of year. Austrade publishes a range of tools and resources on the Study Australia website on accommodation options within Australia including:
- Tips on creating a strong rental housing application.
- Tips to find the right home and house mates for you.
- Know your rights as a tenant in Australia.
Costs of accommodation will vary depending on your chosen state, city, and type of accommodation. The cost of living calculator on the Study Australia website helps students calculate their expenses.

RB Studio
A jewellery brand by Diploma of Business student; Rocio Berengua
“My business was inspired by a lifelong love for the ocean and a passion for creating jewellery that captures its beauty and serenity. I wanted to design pieces that are not only elegant and timeless but also practical for everyday wear—hypoallergenic, waterproof, and gold-plated.
Handcrafting each item allows me to infuse care and quality into every piece. My goal is to provide jewellery that connects people to nature, complements their style, and lasts through all of life’s adventures.”
