Charles Sturt University is spread out in multiple booming cities of Australia and each of the cities has something unique to offer you. You do need to worry about one campus being better than the other is as all of them have everything that you can possibly imagine for a unique campus, starting from well-maintained laboratories to huge libraries filled with all kinds of academic resources. It is generally recommended that international students take on-campus accommodation as this will diminish the headache of you moving back and forth, not to mention the transportation costs.

CSU has multiple campuses spread across the country. Some of them are in Canberra, Dubbo, Orange, Wagga Wagga and Burlington. The campus in Wagga Wagga has many facilities including a central dining room for students living inside the campus, winery, farm, gymnasium, etc. Most of the campuses are equipped with laboratories and highly advanced equipments.

Residing Options
You have the option to avail of in-campus accommodation especially if you are on a shoestring budget (academic wise). Apart from getting the opportunity to mix with both local and internationals students and making life long friends, you also save money on transport and a lot of time. The biggest advantage is that the lecture halls are very near to your accommodation. However, if you are someone who, prefers independence to these advantages and would like his/her own apartment with as much as freedom possible then you should go for off campus housing.
Faculty
The MBA course here is one of the highly sort after courses in the entire nation. But, having said that although the professors will guide you every step of your way, you are ultimately on your own. If you are not self-reliant when it comes to academics, then it is going to be a tough time for you here.
