Answer 1

G'day,

I'm not quite sure I understand with what you means by 'live in a group'. I guess the student does not mind living with others.

I think my previous answer abt accommodation will still be the best solution, especially the Global Village, as it is located abt 10min walk from Holmes college. However, since Holmes college is located right-smack in the CBD Melbourne, then even the flat/apartment rental are very high.

Some students who study in Melbourne institutions (eg RMIT or Uni of Melbourne) would prefer to live in the suburbs, away from the CBD, since it is cheaper to rent a flat and share. However of course you have to calculate the public transport (which is not very expensive) cost. Some suburbs that are students favorite are North Melbourne, Hawthorn, Carlton, Kensington, Caulfield, Malvern and Richmond. However this means that the student will need to have a short-term accommodation (suggested: Victoria Hotel in City), and then take his time to find shared accommodation with friends or from the notice board in campus.

Hope this helps. Good luck :)

definite!!! We easily adore distant places scholars. At my college, approximately 20% of the scholars in my 12 months point are from distant places. that's a brilliant adventure. Melbournians are extremely astonishing human beings :) additionally, my relatives hosted a distant places pupil from Germany, and she or he had an excellent time at college. desire this helps, and robust good fortune! :)
