    Hi guys. I was just wondering how you pay tuition fees. Does the university send you an invoice by mail? And can you pay tuition fees by credit card or cheque? Thanks.

    So how does USYD treat the credit points gained elsewhere for core subjects? Do you have to retake those units of study at USYD? Or do they ask you to do additional electives instead?

    Which will boost my chance of transferring to B Com at Usyd?

    What if I'm transferring into third year of a four-year programme? Do you think they will let me do 30 cp per semester in my first year at USYD? And in case they don't let me do 30cp, can I simply add the extra unit of study online? Thanks.

    Then can I do 30 credit points of study per semester? I mean, that's above the usual load of 24 credit points per semester, but there seems to be no need to ask for permission to do 30 credit points (so, in that sense, I guess it's not regarded as "overloading"?).

    Lecture notes

    Hi guys. I'm transferring to the University of Sydney from an overseas university, where lecture notes are usually uploaded onto the web for students to download and print out before class. However, after taking a look at the course websites of some units of study at the University of Sydney...

    How many units of study per semester do you usually do?

    Hi guys. Do students normally do 4 units of study per semester? Is that the normal load? Do you think that 5 or 6 units of study (including 1 unit of engineering stuff which has labs) per semester will be too much work?
