Hey everyone! I've been exploring some international study options and Australia has popped up a few times. I'm curious, what's considered the most difficult university to get into down under? Any Aussies around who can shed light on this? Thanks!
While it might not be the best measure to judge purely by acceptance rates, the University of Melbourne is often considered one of the most competitive universities to get into in Australia. With a low acceptance rate and high academic standards, it's one of the "Group of Eight" - a coalition of top-ranking Australian universities known for their intensive research focus. So it might be comparable to the Ivy League here in the U.S.
Remember that admission competitiveness often depends on your intended major. Some faculties or departments within a university might be more competitive than others. You might want to check out the specific requirements for your target major at this university to get a more accurate picture of the acceptance rate related to your field of study. Good luck with your search for international study options!
