my friend wanted to transfer from B Mathematics and Finance to B Business @UTS, but the admin said that he cant becuz that B Mathematics and Finance is part of the Faculty of Science and that it would need to take at least a year for a internal course transfer.

Im assuming this is to transfer to another UNI ?
I cant remember, but it does cost to apply through UAC ?

So, basically, you list out all your 9? preferences - and you get a letter of acceptance in January 2005 along with 2004 yr12'ers ...etc?

Exactly like the process from YR12 > UNI ?

i was doing b eco/arts and i dropped my arts right before session ended... i did all my exams and stuff but its just i didnt want to continue with arts.. all i did was go to fce and fill out that yellow change of plan sheet.. they took it said it was ok and that was it.. my guess is that the arts component ends up as an option or gen ed then..

The Faculty of Business may not accept transfers from other Faculties midyear, though last time I checked they do.

In any case, it's too late now.

Yes its the same process
you have to pay the same fees etc to apply to UAC as u did in yr12
your name will be in the paper listing offers in the main round (or otherwise) along with the ex-yr12's

but the transfer from a double degree to a sinlge is kinda different from a complete transfer ...

ezzy85 · 8 Jul 2004, 2:33 PM

fce said to go from comm/sci to comm is the same process through uac that minai descroibed above.

Dingo2004 · 22 Jul 2004, 4:07 PM

when transfering to other courses through uac, i am told they look at both your UAI and your GPA... However, wouldnt it be more accurate to look at the UAI and WAM ???

eg. Pass 50 and Pass 64.. both are Passes.. but clearly the 2nd one is a higher mark, but its treated the same under GPA... where as WAM is a more accurate interpretation of the students marks. hence making it more fair ?

ezzy85 · 22 Jul 2004, 4:12 PM

if youre going from double to single degree through uac and you failed a subject will that still be taken into account?

Well if its a UAC transfer, then yes, it affects your GPA

Sorry to disrupt, but does anyone know whether it is possible to transfer from one university to another, eg UTS to Usyd....err is it even more impossible if you do a combined law degree?

Yes it is possible. No it is not impossible. UTS cutoffs start from about 97.50? So if you got 97.50 for your UAI, you would need about a 6.2 GPA to be on the safe side. (Distinction average).

97.5+97/2=97.25

Cutoffs for NRSL law are typically lower than the original cutoff. 97.25 will get you through safely only for this year. Next year will be different.

It'd be easier (and more accurate) if UAC just calculated a WAM huh. Only problem is some unis don't release percentage marks and you have to go through the GPA conversion tables...yuck.
