    Stay or go... honestly?

    I have received an offer to B Arts/B Business and Commerce (Marketing) at UWS. I only got offered Arts at UNSW. I plan to major in Psychology for Arts. UNSW has a Psychological Science degree which allows students to also major in Marketing. I doubt I can get into their Science/Commerce...

    People at uni doesn't seem really smart

    LOL. Look at your grammar first before you go rant about something which no one cares about. Once people click away, that's it. No one will remember this s**t you have wasted time on.

    So how long does it take you to get to uni and back?

    Just over 45 mins to Parramatta by 2 buses and a train and half an hour for Bankstown (1 bus and train).

    How hard is it to transfer to a different uni

    If you get decent marks (at least a Credit average), then nothing should stop you. Personally, I went to UWS but got an offer from UNSW this year. I don't think unis care about where the students were from - it's based on academic merit.

    UWS or UNSW

    Okay, don't just read the title and think "What a dumb question. Of course UNSW!". So here's the deal: I have an interest in both Marketing and Psychology (they're related any way) so I decided to apply to UWS and UNSW - UWS has a double degree (B Arts/B Business and Commerce) and for UNSW...

    Does anyone know anything about the Bonus Point ??? thx

    I know UWS still gives Bonus Points (like the Regional Bonus) for ANYONE (both current and non-current leavers) who applies via UAC.

    UAC transfer ,how do they know how we peform in the first yr ????thx ~

    Remember that the universities are the ones who look at the applications, not UAC. In the application, there should have been a field where you put in your then-current study details like your uni student number, courses, etc. Also, UWS has established this new system where current students...

    Transfer Advice?

    So back in Year 12, I screwed up my marks and got an ATAR which was just sufficient for me to get into UWS. I did a course I didn't entirely enjoy and got a GPA of 4.125 (didn't fail anything) and the following STAT results: STAT Multiple Choice: Verbal STAT Score - 142 (30.4 percentile...

    Attendance to tutorials?

    You need an attendance rate of at least 80% or risk failing. Well, that is the case for Design/Communications at least.

    Are you guys proud/ ashamed of studying at UWS?

    A uni is a uni. Just because it is more "regular" compared to ones like USyd or UNSW does NOT make it an excuse for someone to not do well in their course because in the end, it comes down to how much effort you have put in that counts. The uni doesn't make you who you are, it's what you do...

    Who's applying for 2nd semester transfers through UAC

    Well, I wanted to transfer from UWS into UNSW but they said I needed to complete at least 0.75 of a year's load of work before I am eligible or they will just look at my HSC results. So I'll have to wait until next year if I want to do anything.

    Anyone doing Visual Communication (with the intention to transfer later on)?

    I'm interested in either Psychology at UWS or MQ (UNSW might be too difficult) or Arts/Education at UNSW. If I were to study Visual Communication for a year, what GPA would I need to maintain in order to be considered? Has anyone here successfully transferred into another university from UWS...

    Experiences with transferring out of UWS to another uni

    I didn't get the required ATAR to study the course(s) I wanted to so I decided to enrol in B Visual Communication at UWS for a year before trying to transfer. My goal is to be able to transfer into the B Psychology at UWS (or even better, MQ or UNSW) or the B Arts/Education at UNSW. How hard...

    Transfer from UWS to any well known university

    Haha. You couldn't even write "you're" properly in your previous post here. Look at yourself first before putting others down.

    What can I do now? Would I still be able to make it into UNSW?

    I don't drink or smoke for your info... my ATAR and my marks don't reflect according to my teachers - due to scaling. I wouldn't care about looking for ways if I was really a low-life.
