    HECS-Help and Fee Help

    It goes on the commonwealth assistance notice, so I think you'd be able to defer it as well. I'm not a 100% sure though.

    HECS-Help and Fee Help

    The loans are pretty much the same, except with a loan for a FEE place there is a cap of 100 grand for medicine, dentistry and veterinary and 80 grand for everything else. There is also a 20% surcharge when you take out the loan. Otherwise the concept is the same (though obviously the amount you...

    Crime fiction- marlowe character analysis HELP

    You've partly solved the question - one key difference between a hardboiled detective (e.g Marlowe) and a golden age one (Ms. Marple, Poirot) is that within the golden age narrative there is a logical accretion of evidence from one point to the next whereas a hardboiled detective more often goes...

    The Abortion Debate (continued)

    Australia is not a catholic nation and not everyone can be supported by counselling derived from a catholic moral system. It either forces those to who are not catholic to seek (what would be for them) limited guidance, or to not seek it at all, which is counter-productive. If you utilise an...

    EAS at UTS

    Ok, its up to seven points in allocation if you are applying to UTS. However, it is 10 'bonus points' if you are applying to a BA Communication course, whether single or combined. The communication course is the exception to the rule, all others function as allocation.

    Tranfer Mark

    It is similar to when you apply with your UAI, a series of people compete for the spots and those with higher rankings are more likely to get in. So the higher you score, the more likely it is you'll get in but it is never 100% certain.

    Anyone do Science/Business combined?

    While the BScience is clearly at the broadway campus, BBusiness is run at both campuses and as the UTS handbook for this specific double degree states it is run at city AND kuringai then I'd say it is studied through both campuses. This is confirmed on the UAC site under course codes 609170 and...

    Journalism - w/ law or int. stud?

    With the international combination, outside of the journalism and international studies core subjects you would be able to study 32cp (4 or 5 subjects depending on faculty or uni) of electives in anything and 8cp (one subject) in any humanities area. In the law combination, outside of your law...

    Journalism - w/ law or int. stud?

    Each degree combination has its perks and problems. The study of law will in many ways enhance your prospects as a journalist as it will open up an entire field for you to critique and comment on (governmental journalism for one) and many law graduates end up in a career of journalism...

    KvB, JMC, SAE, Qantm and all that

    Generally private colleges specialise in one field for which they are known in the industry, and from my experience they are generally better regarded in these specific areas than universities. This is mainly because many universities do not generate the same amount of specialised and practical...

    Is cutting courses bad for Australian universities?

    Its just a way of enforcing a certain standard to gain access to specific majors, some universities do it by GPA, some by UAI and others by interview. I don't really see what is wrong with a university only wanting students of a certain standard studying specific subjects, so I don't really...

    is it possible

    there is nothing stopping you however just be aware of a couple of things - if its part of a single qualification then you need to have a chat with the co-ordinator of your course at your main tafe so they can help you sort out co-enrollment. If its not part of one qualification then for the...

    Is cutting courses bad for Australian universities?

    I am actually against the idea of cutting courses entirely, however I think the numbber of positions offered needs to be redistributed. For example, katie tully provided a list of App Sci courses - rather than scrapping those why not simply reduce positions in the specific strands and introduce...

    Clubs and Societies?

    You'll find that even at UNSW and USYD, most people only end up investing time in maybe one or two clubs/societies, if they even bother going to them at all. Which to be honest doesn't surprise me all that much - you already spend a fair few hours at uni studying, then there is stuff to do with...

    Cut-offs.

    The reason the city would have a higher cut-off is simply popularity - more people want to study in that location. If I were to take at guess at why, I'd probably say that it is because the city campus is far easier to get to though that would only be a guess. UAIs aren't indicative of the...

    Homosexuality in Australia

    I understand your viewpoint however no religious institution is required to honour a ceremony against their tenets - an example would be catholics and divorce, as a divorced person has problems wedding within that institution (I believe they can't at all but I'm not absolutely certain). Yet the...

    Homosexuality in Australia

    Why use the term exclusively for homosexual relationships though? Wouldn't that simply denote a separation of what one recieves and experiences in comparison to the other? (and perhaps even societal devaluation of civil union, though not legislative devaluation) Then it could be amended.

    Historiography at uni?

    I'm pretty sure MQ has a couple of units revolving around the subject of historiography (PwarYuex on this forum might have done those units - not sure though). UNSW also has a historicity unit. UTS also has a single historicity/historiography unit in their Social Inquiry program.

    Homosexuality in Australia

    I believe the poster was referring to the increase of acceptance of homosexuality being lucky, as opposed to any increase of homosexuality itself.
