Most cost-of-living calculators are based on the assumption that users already know how much they plan to spend on each category and prompt the user to input dollar estimates for each category, after which the calculator simply sums up the inputs.
We felt that these calculators needed to work harder, especially for international students as they have very little idea as to how much their life will cost in Australia, but know what kind of lifestyle they want. As such, we developed a tool that asks questions resulting in a budget reflective of his or her proposed lifestyle.
The calculator is an engaging and responsive (mobile-enabled) web-based tool that allows prospective and incoming international students to input their preferred lifestyle choices and estimate their cost of living while studying in Australia.
This Insider owned asset can be adapted to any branding, we worked with Austrade to align the calculator with their branding and managed the asset through licensing agreements.
The Study in Australia Cost of Living Calculator received widespread praise from the international education sector when it was launched in 2022. The feedback from the sector and across the world was fantastic, and it continues to generate thousands of visitors a month.
