Australian Catholic Uni - What's Under The Hood?

Australian Catholic Uni - What's Under The Hood?

The Australian Catholic University (ACU) isn't necessarily one of Australia's "famous" universities. But that doesn't mean that it doesn't have some extraordinary areas of strength that will really suit some students!

ACU is considered to be one of Australia's few "Multi-State" institutions, with several campuses in Sydney, plus campuses in Melbourne, Canberra, Brisbane, Ballarat, Townsville and, excitingly, in Rome!

(Okay, acknowledged: Rome is in Italy, not in Australia).

This wide footprint opens up some unique opportunities for students at ACU, which we talk about in this episode. We also dive into areas of strength for the institution, and what sorts of students are really well suited to studying there.

Perhaps an important point of clarity is that you don't need to be Catholic in order to study at ACU, and many students studying there are not. It's an institution that instead talks a lot about being grounded in its values... and certainly many students will find ACU the perfect alternative to some of the huge metropolitan campuses.
