Telstra and Optus are the big players in Oz so maybe check their options first.
If they're only in major capital cities, the three network operators are Telstra, Optus and Vodafone. Then there are a whole bunch of resellers. Amaysim operates on the Optus network and has great deals, including free international calls.
If they are traveling to rural/country areas, stick to Telstra. The Optus and Vodafone networks are not as good outside the big cities, and this can be an issue if they're in a remote area.
$10 per day is better than Verizon now $12 per day! More helpfully, do they need to use cellular every day? Just to check in with you, they can use WiFi for WhatsApp, email, facebook, etc.
Being a college student I'm guessing they will need it every day :). Messaging friends, checking maps, etc. Buying a local SIM can be as little as AUD10 a month (USD7), so it's not much.
Simon--- Do you have a provider, or two, that you would recommend ?
Thanks to everyone for the help.
Welcome any other suggestions.
