Answer 1

Im not from Bathurst but I know people who go to uni there.

1) I go to uni in a small country town too and can tell you jobs are usually pretty hard to find. There's thousands of uni students all after jobs. You just need to put it applications and be persistant and youll get something eventually.

2) Everyone I know who goes to CSU loves it... but really I dont know much about it.

3) ?

4) Check out this link for things to do in Bathurst:

5) If you dont get an campus accomodation then you could always look through real estate for cheap one bedroom flats or look for shared housing with other students. The student boards on campus are a great place to start, students usually put up flatmate wanted signs.
