UoS tomorrow? (2 Viewers)

[rainbowunicorn]

Just need to clear one thing up, do we pick the UoS for semester 1 only or sem 2 as well?

 

[Rafy]

Both semesters.

Don't worry too much, they are easily changed later on.

 

[rainbowunicorn]

Okay thanks

Also do I get that card/id tomorrow too?

 

[Wake Up]

do we have to really come to uni to enroll at the time provided by unisyd?
with my degree and my surename, i have to come between 2-4 on 22nd

 

[passionxmusic]

I went in a whole hour before my scheduled time - they really don't care and I recommend going in early coz the lines are really long. :S

PS. Rainbowunicorn - you take a photo and declare your entitlement for concession when you enrol - the card arrives before March.

 

[Wake Up]

so we come to uni only for enrolling,right? and when do we decide our subjects?

 

[passionxmusic]

^ For you - by the 22nd. You enrol into units/subjects on the day for both semesters.

 

[Wake Up]

thanks! so i have to decide my subjects before 22nd? gosh

I am doing engineering flexible and I don't know which engineering stream I am going to do yet

anyway, i read on the booklet that unisyd sent to new student that there is faculy enrolment stage (stage 1) where university staff will provide academic advice and help us plan our studies.
Does it mean that we are going to have 1 on 1 session like counseling or something like that?

 

[someth1ng]

What do you need to bring? My one is on the 22nd - BE/BSc.

Yes but it's very casual and they expect you to ask the questions, very similar to BoS in a way.

 

[Wake Up]

thanks!

so i get 22nd, can i enrol on 21nd tommorow? or is it better to come on 22nd because there will be faculty representatives available to help?

No, you have to do 22nd.

You have to do it on the day you are assigned.

Do people usually go with parents/friends or alone?

Both to be honest.

I really don't know why people bring their parents though.

 

[rainbowunicorn]

Transport maybe. Suggest courses, don't know anyone haha. They would be my reasons though I'm not bringing mine since their opinions will annoy me bahahaha

Id rather walk around alone than go with my parents and have them ask the uni people the same questions that theyve asked me so many times.

Ahaha

There is a fairly standard enrolment menu for most cases. However, particularly since you are in flexible first year, the staff will ask you a few questions to adjust the enrolment depending on what your possible interests in engineering might be. You will also be asked baout maths and science background to ensure your enrolment is appropriate, and if necessary give advice.

It is nothing to be worried about - all straightforward.
