On the Calculator I got 6.1 which was about the middle. However, the calculator doesn't determine the relative size of the nation and its locality into its calculations. In addition it only calculates airtravel which is a major contributor but espeically for a lot of the students at ANU they would drive home ever so often. This process would increase your footprint as its a solo act.
In addition its not far to compare people who live on campus to people who live at home and people who live on their own. As different aspects contribute. For example Living one your own seems to contribute a lot more to your footprint because the food, products and services aren't shared amongst people.

Just further proves that this calculator is heavily weighted towards transport, so maybe Singapore students score lower since most of us use public transport.
That's also probably the reason why carpooling hasn't taken off in NUS. Its hard for people to own cars cos the S'pore government imposes quotas on cars that makes them freaking expensive...
