    Yet another what to bring to uni thread

    That's good to know. I've got a little TV tuner for my laptop so hopefully that'll be enough to pick up a signal.

    Yep it is...Australia Day's a nation wide holiday, so their office most probably won't be open until Tuesday.

    Commerce Majors

    So I've pretty much gotten all of the compulsory commerce subjects out of the way and its time to pick a major. I was leaning towards marketing so I did two related subjects which I found really interesting but I don't know if its the best idea to continue with it. The only other real...

    Information on Accommodation

    I know, it totally sucks. Not only would you be paying more but you miss out on all the great stuff they do in the colleges. I really hope it won't be too expensive, I can live with $150 - $180, but more than that and I'll have to start digging into my savings until I find a bit of work up...

    Information on Accommodation

    Yeah, I replied the same way. I'd really like to know what kind of accommodation it'll be and more importantly how much is it going to cost. What about things like utilities and internet etc? I'm really hoping I still get a proper residence.

    What are some REALLY EASY first/second year commerce subjects?

    Not that I've done any subjects at ANU, but in my experience at Melbourne uni, just about anything with the word 'marketing' in it is usually pretty interesting, easy and 'fun'. Intro to business law is also good, because they keep it pretty basic yet some of the topics you cover - contracts...

    I'm in exactly the same position. Haven't gotten anything expect for that email about the pre-departure. Does anyone know if its worth going to? Have you gone onto the ANU website and accepted your offer though?

    Need Help Choosing a Laptop for Uni

    Personally I'd go with the mid range Macbook, but then I'm an Apple fan from way back. The model with the DVD burner is only $1749 (that's the education price btw) and at the moment you can get a free iPod Nano if you buy one (or $200 cash back on any other iPod purchase). They're great little...

    Information on Accommodation

    Just gave the accommodation people a call and they said that the next round of offers are most probably going to go out later this week or even early next week. All of the colleges are waiting for people to accept/reject the first round of offers they sent out and then as places become available...

    Information on Accommodation

    My accommodation status still hasn't changed on the website. :( It still has Fenner Hall at the top (but my 1st pref was B&G) and has said 'academic offer made' since Friday. I hear mixed things about Fenner...is it really that bad? Should I look at other alternatives? I just don't want to...

    FUTURE STUDENTS of 08

    Sounds like we're in the same boat then. I don't know whether to call about accommodation or not. Some people on this site have got their offers already, so it might not hurt to call and check whats going on.

    FUTURE STUDENTS of 08

    Hey all, I'll be coming to ANU next month to do Commerce/Law after having already done 2 years of Commerce/Media Comm. at Melbourne. Didn't really like Melbourne, plus they wouldn't let me transfer into law so I'm really excited about going up to Canberra! My first pref for accommodation...
