First of all i just wanted to say how bad this place and I completely agree with Donnie Scott, half of the things the person said was correct about this place. First off all when you come into the building you do feel welcomed for a short few weeks, at first they don't even know to show you around the campus as the people that work there are ex students that use to attend insearch. Insearch makes you feel secluded from other UTS members such as having a very differentiated INSEARCH card from the actual UTS students. You are also not allowed some privileges that UTS students get. That is only part 1 of many problems. As you attend classes everything that you attempt such as lectures, homework and exams before CENSUS date is very easy drawing you into thinking that you can easily pass the unit however this is not the case simply because Insearch is just there for the money, a staggering $3700 per unit is unbelievable and surely you can attend somewhere else for half of that per unit, now I can see why that the whole year to study there is $33000. The building is one main building with only access to 5-6 levels throughout the building also letting you know that insearch is flooded with international students that barely know how to speak basic English what also annoys me by this is that in class its very hard to communicate when in groups and teachers also differentiate domestic and international students. I myself experienced an international student barely speaking a sentence of English getting a High Distinction in his assignment that you can see he put no effort into where as I spent two weeks on the speech to get a pass mark. The Science faculty at insearch is completely disgusting with teachers not caring & differentiating people from religion & ethnicity, Rosie & Vanessa are the two teachers to watch out for. The faculty does not tell you that you must be attending 80% of tutorials in fact they don’t tell you anything unless you ask which is absurd. Additionally the teachers here do not understand your problems and are not even close to lenient as well as the student centers and counsellors giving the wrong information to several students and myself. I also just want to say if you want to at UTS:Insearch please choose some where else I beg of you and save yourself the $33000 that...
Read moreAs a matter of facts that most of the high review are come from students who only study at UTS Insearch so they don't have the préférence of bad school and good school, and beside due to being a student at a school make them quite bias toward the school.
Also some non - local teacher make me have a hard time listening to them ( they have Doctorare degree but they are very not good at teaching), the booklet that you got are problably taken its content from somewhere old, it's been recycled and keep changing to a very confusing point.
the facilités of the school are not too bad but the room is very cramped, along with their own UTS insearch websites, if you are going for programmer of web Designer, take a look at their websites and you will definitely want to study elsewhere.
The most important thing is most school's experiences are created by both school and students, but here, the majorité is CHINESE not being racist here but because of that, they only play with their own group ( most of them, not all) and speak chinese everywhere, and somewhere around 40% if your you work in a group of 2 or more chinese for group project, you have a good chance of working alone.
And the most horrific thing is that UTS College have a lot of " system error" which lead to many situation such as wrong timetable and delay for one semester, important mail, coe are not sent accordingly, and especially despite all of these "system error" none of those error are reported to the main building UTS, each problem you ask the studentcentre could take up to more than 3 weeks so...

This place is only for learning english for people who are extremely weak in english. THATS IT!!!
If you are a genuine international student. This really is not the place to be. If you are a domestic student this definitely is not for you. I completely agree with H.S and Danny Scott.
I am an international student. I completed my diploma of engineering. I have had to do this subject called Networking Essentials which had nothing to do with my chosen degree. The teaching methods in this subjects were directed for students to fail. I did not enjoy it at all and the rude teacher never taught me anything.
I was depressed to the point where i had suicidal thoughts. Complete waste of money for international students. A bunch of useless student centre staffs and academics who do not enjoy their jobs.
This place is only for people to improve their English NOTHING ELSE
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE. I went there as i was told by my education agency from my home country who told me it would be a great place to go rather than going to another uni and transferring. I came here like a fool.
On my first day when i saw the building i thought it was the business administration building of uts. Next day for orientation they held it in their classes which are few mins walk...
