i havent been to Bankstown campus, though i went to the Penrith campus (Kingswood). The campus is pretty much next to the Great Western Highway, i used to carpool with couple of friends to uni and back home. There was hardly any congestion

I don't know about from parra but a few of my friends have said that the roads to penrith are clearer then to bankstown (from campbelltown)...don't know if that helps.

i wonder which would use more fuel haha.
whilst bankstown is more closer, there's more stops

at penrith you'd be crusing at 90-110 for most of the journey

Yeah, Bankstown you'll be driving into the traffic, whereas Penrith is super fast to get to from the M4.

I'm assuming you'll be doing arts as they're the two major arts campuses? What major are you doing? Some campuses have more subjects available on them than others.
