Arts at monash or Melbourne?

Hi all!
I am enrolled at an arts course at Monash but I recently got offered arts at Melbourne uni. I can’t decide which one to go to since they both have their pros and cons. Firstly, monash is way further than Melbourne in terms of distance and I prefer Melbourne’s location heaps better. Secondly,  monash offered me a scholarship which I’m not sure if I want to give up. I’m also keen on law/international relations but I’m not sure whether the Melbourne jd or Monash law undergrad are better in the law field.Thanks :)

How far away is Monash and how far away is Melbourne?

What’s the value of the scholarship?

Melbourne base on location alone.

You'll be going there 4 times a day for the best 3 years.

Location makes a big difference.

I think brenden's questions above are good ones, though. I was in a really similar position: I wanted to study Arts, UoM was more convenient for me, but Monash offered me a scholarship.

I went to Monash and have absolutely no regrets, but I think it's difficult to say without knowing how long the travel time will be, and what the scholarship is worth, amongst other factors (how do you want to be spending your time?).
