    Moving from Sydney to Wollonong

    Just don't stay at Port Kembla, Warrawong, Cringila or Berkely. Take that advice, and you'll be sweeet. ;)

    Advance Standing - Unspecified Credit Points?

    From what I can see... yes, you can. But, you would just have to speak with your School or with the person who gave you the unspecified credit just to confirm.

    Advance Standing - Unspecified Credit Points?

    Unspecified credit can be use in place of elective credit points, it's just there to 'fill up' your degree.

    Question For You Wollongong People...

    If she gets into uni, she could get anywhere up to 48 credit points exempted (about one year). Depends on other factors, like TAFE grades and high school results.

    marketing at tafe

    It's difficult to say, if you receive just under the UAI, you could go to TAFE for one semester, apply mid-year and could 'possibly' get a place. But usually, if you do a Diploma (one year) or an Advanced Diploma (one and a half years) receive very good marks you 'could' get a place and if you...

    What is TAFE like?

    You pretty much have to do at least one or two presentations per class. Usually, if you do a group problem that isn't marked, the teachers expect to to get up in front of the class to present your results. If it's unmarked, they don't tell you until 5 minutes before you finish the question that...

    What is TAFE like?

    You have loads of presentations and role plays based on real life corporate situations, most of the assignments are group work and for most assignments you have to study a real life organisation/brand/product. There's a lot of theory though compared to other TAFE subjects, which can be a bit of...

    Some myths of TAFE

    At $15 per semester for the Student Association, you get more back than what you pay in the dollar. :cool: Even though it's a very small amount.

    Tafe courses

    I don't know about other universities, but your best bet if you want to do Psychology at UoW is to study Social Welfare or Community Welfare at TAFE and when you're finished, depending on your TAFE marks and your UAI you could enter B. Arts and major in sociology and then take up the psychology...

    What is TAFE like?

    Yeah, at TAFE we had a back-to-back Business to Business/Business Services class and a third of all the Advanced Diploma classes failed. The TAFE had to re-timetable everything to fit the whole crowd the following semester.

    What is TAFE like?

    In my course at exam time, we had mainly reports, essays and short answer responses. We rarely took multiple choice exams, but they were mainly for short mid semester tests. In most classes, most of the marks come from assignments throughout the semester. A small number of classes are...

    What is TAFE like?

    It all depends on which course you are doing. I did Business Marketing at TAFE and we were required to have all of our readings done before classes just like at uni. You still copy work down just like in high school and not quick lecture notes. But the content is the same as second and third...

    marketing at tafe

    I did a Cert IV and an Advanced Diploma in Business Marketing with Credit averages and I got into B. Commerce at UoW. (81 UAI) I got a 70 UAI in the HSC. Although, I know of someone who got in the 60s for their UAI with a pass average at TAFE and they got into UoW.

    I heard that someone who got about 5 points below the UAI for entry, turned up to the enrolment day and asked if there were any places available in B. Internet Sci and they let him in. :o

    Can i get into uni next year?

    I know that this is a dead board now, but I would like to give you an update on this. This is now 1.5 years later... I ended up choosing to do the Advanced Diploma part of the course (because it looks better on my resume) and I applied to UoW in June. I GOT IN! With a credit average and 48...

    End of first semester results?

    Hey, I studied an advanced diploma last semester and the semester before. I failed two modules last year but I passed them this year. Will those fails appear on my updated transcript, even though I have passed everything now?
