    Regretting not going to USYD

    I was in the exact same situation as you friend. Upon completing the HSC in 2007 I narrowed down my preferences to law/finance at mac (which i selected) or usyd commerce. This year i transferred to usyd commerce (didnt really enjoy law but had always been passionate about commerce, plus my...

    credit transfer?!?

    Yeah handed it in on the day and once MyUni was activated i received an email saying that the transcript/outlines had been sent to the relevant disciplines to be processed but the credit application form still needed to be completed online. I'm pretty sure we just need to get it in before that...

    Transfer Q's

    hey everyone .... say if you haven't completed 8 subjects by the end of the year and have been told you are going to be assessed on your uai, will the uai then become the nrsl rank used, and if your mark is over the nrsl cutoff you are definately in? Any help is greatly appreciated.

    USYD transfer. B Com ---> B Arts

    Hey, yeah well depending on the uni the dates differ. However, maintain consistent grades this semester and try to get a couple of distinctions to make up for the fails and you have a decent chance. Your uai is well above the cutoff so they may just look at that, or maybe only gpa, or a...

    USYD transfer. B Com ---> B Arts

    If you do 8 subjects they will count in your overall GPA, regardless of whether you repeat them or fail any. So if, at the end of this yr, you finish 8 subjects and want to transfer the fails will be included. If you do less than 8 subjects they will only look at your uai (date to drop a subject...

    USYD transfer. B Com ---> B Arts

    Hey, if you don't do one year of full time equivalence (8 subjects = 48 credit points) you will be assessed only on uai (must drop a subject/s before the academic census date to do this, think it is 31 september), then your chances are good. If its a year full time its 50/50 uai and gpa with a...

However, they may provide a maximum of 5 bonus points, dependent upon relevant HSC subjects and the associated...

    Transfer/Major combo

    Thanks heaps for the reply, appreciate it. From previous responses and advice my chances seem relatively high of getting in and at this stage im pretty set on uts. Marketing looks good and i thought advertising is a good complement, but perhaps management/hrm is also good to combine with it. So...
