University Of New South Wales

I don’t actually attend this university, I only go here when my uni decides to abuse UNSW’s examination facilities. Although my baby bro attends this uni and he’s having the time of his young hot blooded life. He lives on campus in one of the many (and apparently competitive) student accommodation colleges. Seriously concerned about how much study he actually completes but whatever it’s free parking for me.
Exterior wise the buildings are a mixture of old and new/​modern. It seems they are in constant construction upgrade. No doubt some engineering students are somehow involved there. It’s a large campus though, the uni walk goes from top of the hill to the main street, Anzac parade. There have multiple entry and exit points, my favourite being the Barker street entry. Try it, rarely manned and no boom gate.
On an approving note, this place is noticeably always quite clean. They also have many ramps and what not for the handicapped and the longboarders.
There’s an on-​site IGA supermarket with overpriced groceries if your desperate. But more interestingly they have several restaurants/​cafes/​fast food joints within campus grounds as well. We usually go to Coco cubano and some Mexican joint.
All in all this uni does have a prestigious reputation and they’re ranked high in the official world university rankings to prove it. I would probably join up officially if I didn’t already have an actual job but there’s no rush.

Emotions run high each time I walk past this place. Negative ones to be precise but I should not go into details here.
Generally, the school buildings are O.K. Nothing special. It seems like they are demolishing more lecture halls and turn them around to build student accommodation. A.R.G.H, alright, my blood is starting to boil, so I’m going to my next point.
There are a few bars, food courts and restaurants around campus. There is also a small IGA supermarket on the lower campus (Gate 2, High Street).
OK I should stop here.

I studied Architecture at the Faculty of Built Environment here for 1 year, and then dropped out as I sucked at maths. It’s a great university, for Architecture, and Sciences as the school of architecture was one of the founding schools of UNSW.
Informally called New South of UNSW, we had a lot of fun studying in the large open fields, enjoying the grander of sandstone Romanesque architecture, and new modern buildings and investments in art that the university constantly made.
The main UNSW campus is divided geographically into two areas: upper campus and lower campus, which often made it difficult to meet others who were studying different things, as the walk could take up to 15 minutes for either end, and can take even longer if the crowd of nearly 46,000 students block your way.
My favourite part about this campus was the bars, café’s and campus culture which was very prominent. The roundhouse often had great parties and events organised by students and councils, which went off the hook!
