If it’s the quiet life you’re after, then maybe Perth should be quite high up your street. The city lies in isolation on Australia’s west coast, and boasts a high volume of relatively unspoiled and quiet beaches. The city itself is uncrowded and peaceful. If you’re more into cafes, parks and peaceful beaches than all-night partying, then you and Perth might be a match made in heaven. The home of the University of Western Australia (79), Curtin University (258) and Murdoch University (401-450), is also the main location for one of Australia’s two private universities, Notre Dame University.


Perth is the 25th best student city globally.


Brisbane


Australia’s third biggest city, which lies towards the east of the Australian mainland, is known for the friendliness of its locals – often considered to be a major factor in the city’s growth (it is the nation’s fastest growing city). Of course, friendliness alone isn’t enough to make a city, and it also has a thriving live music scene, a plethora of world- class cultural institutions and – of course – access to plenty of beaches. The city’s most prominent university is the University of Queensland (Brisbane is the capital of Queensland), which is ranks 46th in the 2012/13 QS World University Rankings. The other ranked institutions in the city are the Queensland University of Technology (281), and Griffith University (368).


Brisbane is the 22nd best student city globally.
