Billy Blue is worthwhile for Design courses
I recommend the Billy Blue Torrens branch for on-campus classes but not online. Online services are severely lacking and not worth your time. Many assessments are also outdated, however individual lecturers usually handle this by giving instructions for assessments themselves. A huge majority of the staff are really passionate, kind people who are genuinely excited to be teaching. I've found their enthusiasm contagious and it's helped with my studies a lot. Wifi and facilities are great and the 3D lab computers have Zbrush, Substance Painter, and Maya all available. The only issue is that because the classrooms are all open-plan sometimes things are too noisy and you can hear classes next door. Overall, Billy Blue/Torrens is worthwhile.

Learning design in small, focused classes
I love the lecturers here with caring hearts: small classes and detailed contents. They all have professional backgrounds and so many job opportunities. They provide great networks within your industries and people on the campus are always friendly.

An MBA pathway in Australia
Torrens has a lot of campuses around Australia, and each has different campus facilities. So it can't be generalised. About the courses, it depends, with the course with 100% international students, the intake requirements are nothing, so everyone kind of can be accepted. Hence, the quality of students makes the learning experience here worse.
