Transferring and Majors Q (1 Viewer)

[Collin]

Thinking about adding a BCommerce to my BSc... i.e I want to do Combined BSc/BCom, how should I go about doing this (I hope I don't have to re-apply through the UAC at the end of the year) and what are some tips I should undertake. For example, for this procedure, how much do they take into your account your UAI and how much of your 1st year marks? Is what I'm asking for generally very competitive in nature and hence I should acknowledge that it will be tough to get in?

Also, in MyUni for BSc, there are three vacant lists to choose Majors from. Does this imply that you can undertake three majors? I wouldn't mind considering a Mathematics/Physics/Chemistry combo.

well I'm doing bsci,bcomm and it says that there is no direct transfer into the course... so I assume that you would have to apply through uac, and then get credit for your science units. I have heard that it is done on 50%uai and 50% first year marks, but I can't verify this. And yes, I would say it is tough to get in...

My UAI is about 2-3 points off the cutoff for BComm, so you reckon a distinction average for 1st year subjects would get me in?
