    $250 Student Fee introduced

    I guess at least you can put the payment on hecs. Just rack up a larger debt!

    $250 Student Fee introduced

    I do have a job. It all goes to paying rent, food, textbooks and bills. :( (well most of it anyway) No government funding for me (although I do qualify in a month!).

    $250 Student Fee introduced

    yeah, but you then won't have money either though. I'm sick of a student budget.

    $250 Student Fee introduced

    Hoping i got the right bill... The money levied can't be used for a political party but can be used for: "Subsection (3) does not prohibit expenditure for a purpose that relates to the provision of any of the following services: (a) providing food or drink to students on...

    $250 Student Fee introduced

    This money is being collected by the university is that correct? (ie. not the unions as under the old system). If so, I wonder how much the universities will give to their respective student unions, and whether the unions will still have to charge a fee to join? I'd be interested to see how the...

    Double Major (English and Ancient History) with Education at Sydney Uni?

    It appears from the USYD website that they offer a Bachelor of Education (secondary) combined with a Bachelor of arts. Is this what you are referring to? If it is, it takes 5 years. Here's some info...

    Law worth doing?

    You should really start to do some research of your own...most of your questions can be answered by looking at uni/faculty websites/uac guide etc etc However as a guide...around 50% of law graduates don't become lawyers. It is increasingly being seen as a more generalist degree. That's a lot...

    B Science/B Arts queries

    It's 4 years because that's how long it takes to get through the requirements for a BA and a BSc (you are doing a combined degree, not a single degree, so it was always going to be longer than 3 years). To be honest I find it kind of miraculous that it can take 6 years to do the two degrees...

    More arts units in single degree than combined?

    Sorry I'm not sure whether MQ recognises minors however... Is there a real need to have a 'minor' in something? eg. if you do enough French subjects so that you can speak french at an intermediate level, surely that is the important thing, rather than the need to say I have a minor in French? I...

    More arts units in single degree than combined?

    sorry it depends on the university. USYD does not have a minor ie. it is not recognised in any way. Only a major is recognised. At usyd, each subject is worth 6 credit points, so every semester you do 24 credit points. How many subjects you need to get a major may differ between departments I...

    SRC/Honi Soit/Senate Elections

    Yeah the student politics and internal dramas have basically destroyed a lot of hope the SRC has of actually doing anything. That, and the fact that people get onto SRC for CV-stacking purposes, or because they were just asked to be on a ticket, and then they don't turn up to meetings, and SRC...

    More arts units in single degree than combined?

    Employers don't care whether you did combined LLB or grad law. A plus for combined is that it saves you a year (especially if you want to do honours in arts). Negatives, you do loose 8 subjects...but saying that, if you know what you want to major in in arts its not that much of a loss. Its...

    Christian Clubs and Societies?

    Can someone briefly explain the rounds in applying for degrees

    agree that it's all on UAC site. The main round is the one in which you generally get an offer. just as a side note - to my knowledge the general advice given if you want to switch preferences after main round is that you accept your main round offer, then change your preferences, then hope...

    Anyone Please Help ?!

    haha that's alright. I know Armidale/UNE - they have a very large proportion of students studying via distance education - they want more students to actually study on campus (which I think is what they are getting at via that requirement). I would check with the university, but I don't think...

    Preferences

    you can also always change your preferences when you get your ATAR. What you put down now isn't the final say. (I changed my preferences when my UAI came out). :)

    Anyone Please Help ?!

    sorry is the requirement for early entry that you live on campus (at the colleges), or that you study on campus (ie. not by distance education). I find it difficult to believe that the first situation is the case - they want students to study on campus (ie. attend on campus classes, not study...

    External Transfer to Law?

    You can't transfer to just a law degree - you have to transfer to a combined degree. If you were doing commerce at UNSW, I guess you would then apply for transfer to Commerce/Law degree at usyd. Although theoretically you could transfer to any combined degree i think eg. Arts/Law, but its...
