We know cost-of-living pressures are affecting everyone differently – from rent, groceries and bills to the time and cost of getting to campus.
We want to better understand what you’re experiencing, so we can figure out what support would actually help.
That’s why we’re inviting you to complete our Cost of Living and Public Transport Survey. The insights you share will shape future support options and services at La Trobe.
As a thank you for your time, you can also choose to go in the draw to win one of two $200 Mastercard gift cards when you complete the survey.
Why your feedback matters
Everyone’s situation is different. You might be living at home or in uni accommodation, relying on public transport or driving to uni, studying online or heading to campus most days.
Hearing from a wide range of students helps us understand the different pressures people are facing – and what would make the biggest difference right now.
Your feedback will help inform support options that make it easier to stay engaged with your studies and uni life.
Share your experiences
The survey takes around 5 minutes to complete, and your responses are anonymous.
Once you’ve filled out the survey, you can provide your email address to go in the draw to win one of two $200 Mastercard gift cards.
