If you live closer to UNSW, then you should go to UNSW. From what I've seen, UNSW does have a nice social life. They have a kick-ass Oktoberfest. Your social life depends on the friends you make. No point relocating to Melbourne uni to do commerce when you have offers in sydney.

Those three uni's are all top notch for Comm. Personally I'd go with USyd, but if you hate travelling then UNSW it is. How long you would have to travel to get to USyd as opposed to UNSW?

 

[rx34]

Personally I have heard UNSW's commerce is the best and USyd's commerce is not as good. But I don't think that would deter me from going to USyd.

To the OP: I'm not sure what the social life at USyd is like. But I doubt it would be much different to UNSW.

There are lots of asians at UNSW.

I picked UNSW Comm over USyd's. I won't bother moving to Melbourne even if it may be slightly better than UNSW, which is debatable.

There are lots of asians at UNSW.

Does that even matter?

Yes.

Why?

Why?

Because multiculturalism is a good thing.

 

[chefman21]

Yes, multiculturalism IS a good thing.

Are you being sarcastic? Not sure that I like your attitude if you are.

No sarcasm. I'd much rather study at a multicultural university as opposed to a monocultural university.

Good.... I was gonna say!

The world is only going to get smaller in the future so having a background from a multicultural univeristy can only be a good thing. Mind you, there is some pretty narrow minded people around on here.

If UNSW is closer, then go with that. If you were thinking about majoring in Economics then definitely go with UNSW. If you want to do Accounting then you're going to want to transfer to UTS's Accounting Cadetship program. Otherwise, there's virtually no difference between UNSW's and USyd's Commerce degrees.
