Honest opinion - what distinguishes each college? (1 Viewer)

[greengirl01]

Hi guys,

I've just been to ANU open day and I'm still unsure about which college is best, so what is your honest opinion?
I'm interested in doing History, and going catered, so far I gather Johns is a no go, but what about Ursies, Burgman or Bruce?
What distinguishes them? I'm not really keen on snobby colleges but I would like a strong community and academic support, genuine people and I am also a bit quiet and artsy if that helps.

Any opinion is helpful!
Thanks in advance!

Bruce > Ursies > B&G (as a third option if you aren't completely committed to catered). Burgmann recruits directly from private schools in Sydney, it's always had a bit of a toff vibe. Ursies is pretty small and quiet, but has a decent community. Bruce is a decent mix of everything. I was at Bruce from '05 to ~'10 if you have any questions.
