Transfer for Macquarie University.
Since a lot of questions have arisen on this topic of transfers internally within MQ.
(Note: These are for courses which are listed within the handbook for transfer, some courses though, have additional procedures, such as law, and will be covered later.)
* MQ Handbook, the most current is recommended as there have been quite a few changes from 2004 > 2005, or alternatively, http://www.handbook.mq.edu.au/.
- You want to read over this carefully especially sections concerned with the Internal Transfer within MQ. (2004 ed. p28)
- Additionally research the degree you wish to transfer to, any pre-requisites and cores which are involved within the new degree.
* Read http://www.handbook.mq.edu.au/degrees.php?edition=2005&level=ug for the relevant degrees and their conditions and programs of study.
Now you have those, we get to the actual process of the transfer procedure.
*
* Make sure you have a GPA according to which course you wish to transfer to. This is probably the most important part unless you plan to transfer into one which uses a separate form of admission, ie audition, portfolio, etc. As a guide, 2.0 = Pass, 3.0 = Credit, 4.0 = Distinction and High Distinction @ MQ. Most courses follow the XX credit points, XX GPA, and the others have particular units which need to be passed with a certain grade. ie, A transfer into B Arts in Media and Cultural Studies internally would involve you to have a GPA of 2.5 with 18 Credit Points, and completion of MAS104, MAS105, CUL100 and CUL101.
* When the Internal Degree Transfer Policy is available, students can download a copy of the policy in pdf format by following this link. (http://www.reg.mq.edu.au/academic-index.htm)
(http://www.reg.mq.edu.au/Undergrad/UGStudents/XDegree/transfer_degree.htm#Applying) for the procedures in handing the forms in and where.
They will usually tell you via letter if your application is successful.
