Hello. I'm trying to decide where to study next fall in Australia. I'm looking for the university with the most prestige/academic excellence that would also provide a great abroad experience. I'm interested equally in seeing the land and experiencing the culture. I'm majoring in economics and physics--I'd like the place to have a good econ/business department, but I'm less picky about physics. I'm currently doing very well at a top American university, so I'm not worried about classes being "too hard."

If I go through my local university and possibly save some money (still figuring out course prices and conversion rates), I could go to U of Queensland, U of Melbourne, or Macquarie. I'm also looking at U of Sydney, U of New South Wales, or U of Western Australia.

I haven't been able to find any third-party websites that provide information on Australian universities--all the sites I know of are pretty exclusively for American colleges. Thanks for the help.

Well, the US is a pretty fun place, and there's a lot of crappy places to be around here :)... I found a couple ranking sites, but was wondering of others had thoughts/good sites.
