I'm planning to go to school in AU, but I have no idea how college works over there. I tried reading things online but I get so confused, can anyone tell me how it roughly works and what the yearly expenses would be? And are there AU's version of a community college like there is here in the US? Is transferring there hard?

Hey dude, I dunno how you transfer here but... The cost is about 20-25 thousand for an average arts type of course. Music and medicine and things cost more. This link might work http://www.futurestudents.unimelb.edu.au/int/fees/grad. I think your community collge is what we call TAFE. We call college, university and the form of study below that is TAFE. There isn't a lot of dorms around so a lot of students just rent houses together. TAFE is about 10-15 thousand a year for a diploma. Goes for two years. Most are around $10,000 a year i think. http://www.goldcoast.tafe.qld.gov.au/about_us/publications/index.html#international_2010 Havn't looked at the above link but the gold coast rules. Nothing is cheap. Good luck.
