On the topic of University Transfers...

What if someone wanted to transfer to a course say BMedScience/BEng (double degree) at UTS which is UAI of 86.5 (2005) required. And say the persons' UAI was 88 (obtained 2003), would they qualify to transfer through UAC and into the course from a similar degree? Likewise, BScience to BMedScience at the same institution?

I have a friend who did Marine Science and can't transfer to MedScience and can't even transfer to BScience (only allowed to transfer to BArt THEN BScience) yet he has the UAI.

It would depend on the university institution i'd say, most uni's arent as free form as MQ i guess

Macquarie isn't as strict when it comes to transfers. If you have a GPA of like 2.8 they'll slip you into a course that required a GPA of 3.0.

But that doesn't make Macquarie an easy Uni. By far really...

O is this for internal transfers or external as well.

External transfers are handled by UAC

Internal are handled by the respective universities.

bsci: I was thinking more about the structure/restrictions of MQ transfers, in that inter-faculty transfers are very much a possibility unlike other uni's i've heard about.

Not true actually.
Internal transfers and external transfers at newcstle university are handled by uac.
Which isnt very good for me.
Dam UAI, pulling me down.

I wasn't aware we had internal transfers, only external? I thought the only internal "transfers" were for those with a double degree wishing to switch to a single, which as far as I knew was handled within the uni..

EDIT: spelling errors.

Hey Frigid

The credit point business, they say you need one year of full time study at university to be able to transfer. That is equivalent to 48 credit points for most unis? At Macquarie a full year of study is 24 credit points. So does that mean you need to do 2 years at Macquarie to accumulated 48 cp to be able to transfer?

I only have 23 credit points =( coz of Japanese.. i might have to do summer schoool

You need whatever is equivelant to 1 Full time load at your school. So in macqueerie, you'd need 24 credit points to transfer.
Also, if applying through UAC, summer school won't count

Incorrect.

I transferred through UAC doing 11 cp + 9 cp during last year.

You can transfer, it depends on if there is a quota, and whether the demand outstrips the places.

And why not transfer internally?

1st yr + UAI depending on the uni/course.
