    Paying for uni? HECS vs Upfront payment

    I paid all but one semester of my HECS up front. My degree woudl of cost $16k with no discount, but it has only cost me $12k becuuse of the upfront payments. In my opinion, it may seem easy to not care about paying anything until you are working, but I'm paying about $70 in tax extra per week...

    UWS is soo backwards

    Obviously if you put your education in your resume, interviewers will already know what uni you went too. In my experience I have never been asked anything about university, only what I have done previously in regards to work experience. I've never been asked for my transcripts or a copy of my...

    UWS or ND?

    What course do you want to do at UTS? If it is a design course your best to do the UWS course cuz you will be credited for subjects you do and more likley start in 2nd year. Arts is non related to design so you will probably have to start from scratch at UTS.

    UWS vs UTS INSEARCH

    I'm a UWS business graduate. There is nothing wrong with UWS business degrees. If you are rich and want to waste money on a non-guaranteed program just becuase it is at a "better" uni, then do it. The smart thing to do would be to go to UWS for a year and transfer, and you wouldent even need a...

    Is it easier to get a high GPA at UWS than other unis such as UNSW and USYD?

    I've been in classes where noone got HD's or D's in an assignment. Every assignment I got duirng uni came with a marketing guide that showed what was required of the student in order to achieve a certain grade. It is not a ranking system. If a paper does not deserve a mark, they are not going to...

    marketing as a major

    I did not mean that so generally. Somebody would not employ an accounting graduate in a marketing field, and vice versa. If they had relevant marketing experience it might be different. But taking accounting and marketing for instance, they are both two different disciplines within business.

My first job out of uni, a marketing assistant at an rsl club required it, let alone a marketing position at a large...
