A laptop is the perfect device for uni students. Whether you’re jotting down notes in a lecture, studying in the library or completing assignments at home – a laptop is the way to go. Look for a laptop with a high-end processor for speed, plenty of storage and a long battery life. For ultimate flexibility consider a 2-in-1 laptop. 2-in-1 laptops are lightweight and feature touchscreens, detachable keyboards and app integration that allows your laptop to double as a tablet computer. They are a great choice for those on-the-go.

University courses typically start in February or March in Australia with some courses offering an additional intake mid-year in June/ July.

If you’re moving away and out of home for the first time, consider small kitchen appliances such as an air fryer, microwave, rice cooker, kettle and toaster – great for low-cost easy meals. Plus, don’t forget a fridge and washing machine too.
