Hi, I'm currently in Grade 12 in Queensland and looking to study biomedical science at Monash Uni next year. I was wondering if people had any recommendations as to what hall I should stay in – I am looking at both the Residential Village and the Urban Community. Thanks!
I lived on campus at Peninsula for 2 years but have friends who have lived at Clayton. Ultimately it comes down to what environment you prefer. Would you prefer to live a bit more by yourself and have a bit more privacy and that sort of thing? If so, urban community is probably where you'd go. If you'd prefer a bit more of a social atmosphere and a place where you really get used to living with other people and sharing kitchens, bathrooms, etc. then residential village is probably what you'd go for.
However if you want to live with other people but don't want too much of a party/social lifestyle, South East Flats is a good in between. It's less solitary than urban community but quieter than residential halls
