pre-DPT USA to Australia Q's

Hello!!
I am applying to DPT school in Australia from USA and several questions
1. I have read many places that Australia's pt program is top notch internationally and was curious if this was anecdotal or if there are statistics on the matter?
2. Coming from the US have people found the financial aid/scholarships are doable?
3 I would like to go to an international dpt school because I would like to work internationally for fellow us citizens, has anyone done this and found going to an international school helpful? or would you have to jump through the same hoops no matter what?
4. living costs I think I am finding that Bond uni would be less Melbourne accurate or could it even out with some persistent searching?

Thank you for any info :)
