Just one correction to Kalebhoot's posting: AGSM (Australian Graduate School of Management) is a joint venture of University of Sydney and University of New South Wales. Macquarie is not linked to AGSM in any way. AGSM is very strong at its alumni network and marketing its courses. Macquarie has great academics for Finance studies. At the end of the day, if you are looking to study postgrad and trying to do it for free, US is by far the best. Australian universities have almost non existent scholarships compared to those in the states.
