Now now, play friendly .

Yes, the BBus/BComp course is run at the City campus. As for transferring, you will have to apply through UAC again after your first year, so you have to compete with next year's applicants again. If you don't meet the UAI then you will have to get good marks at uni to try and boost up your UAI.

It is harder to transfer from BBus/BComp to BBus than it is to transfer to BScIT (for obvious reasons).

That's not what the UAC book says:

Current UTS students wanting to apply to another UTS undergraduate course must apply via UAC, the exceptions include:

1. Add/withdraw BA International Studies
2. Current UTS students in the faculties of Business, Law, Humanities and Social Sciences and Education wanting to transfer to a course within their existing facility.
3. Current UTS students wanting to withdraw from a part of a combined course.
4. Courses not offered via UAC

ANd no need to worry Donshe, my UAI is below yours, so I won't effect you.

Sure about the transfers?

2 women told me Id have to go thru UAC today.

One was from Biz other from IT

yeh, i got told at wollongong and usyd dont be fooled, you have to go thru uac and then you'll be competing with everyone else.. go back into 'the uac pool' as they like to call it

That's not what the UAC book says:

I know the UAC book says that, and it is true, but it only applied to SOME combined degree's and SOME facilties. Eg. dropping from BScIT/LLB to just BScIT and some other courses in other faculties.

The BBus/BComp course is run by the Faculty of IT and the BBus is obviously run by the Faculty of Business. You cannot internally course transfer within faculties so you will have to go through UAC again. The IT faculty, itself, doesn't allow any internal course transfers within its courses either (though some faculties do), so you will have to go through UAC even if you wanted to drop down to BScIT (especially since they are different courses). The only exception in the IT faculty is for adding/dropping industrial training and international studies.

Hope this clears things up.


Note: The above statement in italics may not be entirely true. It has been brought to my attention that it could be possible to do a combined Business degree, such as BBus/BComp, and then internally transfer down into BBus. As for dropping down to the BScIT, I doubt you can do this internally and you will most likely have to do it through UAC. Anyways, what I'm trying to say is, those of you that do want to try and transfer after first year into the BBus single degree, try an internal course transfer and see how you go, because it could get accepted, as has happened to some people this year.

Sure does, stupid misleading UAC book.

Hmm, this does raise further questions for me though of would I prefer to do Business/Comp at City and *possibly* risk having to do an extra year, or if I'd rather just go Kuringai and do business. You said I can attend lectures at city but tutorials have to be at Kuringai, what sort of hours per week would I have of each? And with transfering via UAC from Bus/Comp to strait business, after the first year I would qualify for transfer into the second year of business (thus easier to do) wouldn't I? Or is it because the subjects are split 50/50% I have a fair bit of catch up work on Business still to do?

"You said I can attend lectures at city but tutorials have to be at Kuringai, what sort of hours per week would I have of each?"

Have a look at the First Year Business Overview thread that I made in the UTS forum. It covers the number of hours for each subject. Usually it will be around 12-14 hours per week. Some tutorials usually don't have attendance, so you can actually attend any of them (even the City ones), especially after Week 1 or 2 when half the students don't go to their non-compulsory ones. Some subjects have compulsory tutorials where you have to hand in work, so for those ones you'll have to go to your tutorials. Sometimes exams are run in lectures as well, so you'll need to check that too.

"And with transfering via UAC from Bus/Comp to strait business, after the first year I would qualify for transfer into the second year of business (thus easier to do) wouldn't I? Or is it because the subjects are split 50/50% I have a fair bit of catch up work on Business still to do?"

You will obviously transfer over the 4 Business core subjects you do (so thats half a year). Depending on whether you want to do an IT major or sub-major as part of your second major in the BBus, you may be able to transfer over your other subjects too. There is usually a limit to how many subjects you can transfer over sometimes, but since this is technically an internal course transfer still (same uni), it is usually fine for any subjects you want to transfer over.

I was accepted for Broadway - so crossing my fingers it doesn't go up from last year's 98.45 cutoff. Only around 20 Broadway places for law. That means if half the people who got 99.55 also got Broadway... it'll have to be UNSW for me.
