How does the distance you live from the University affect your study options? If you have to travel long distances, what costs are involved? If moving away from home, what will be your living arrangements and costs?
I currently live in Claremont with my parents. If I am admitted into the MBBS, I may have to reside in Burnie or Launceston for the fourth and fifth years of the course. If I were to be placed at the Launceston Clinical School I would have to seek my own accommodation and catering, meaning my living expenses would be approximately $13000 per year presuming I stayed in university accommodation.
