    Student Services and Amenities Fee

    Re: Wut? Help. You can thank Gillard and the lefties on campus for this slugging of students. These compulsory fees were banned by the Howard Government as they were usually used to feather the nests of left wing political hacks on campus. Now they are back. Deplorable. Students are the ones...

    Late Round Offers & Alternative Pathways

    Re: FAQ: Late Round Offers Not necessarily if it's at different universities. You'll usually have to inform the uni for your main round offer that you want to withdraw. It's not automatic. In the case of both being at the same uni, most unis won't allow you to be enrolled in two of their...

    What courses do 99.95s do??

    99.95 students do whatever they are interested in. I know of somebody years ago who got 99.80 UAI and did hairdressing because that's what she wanted to do. The idea that if you don't 'use' all your ATAR points you are wasting them is silly. Do what you have an interest in. Don't do a degree...

    Confused with commerce degree structure

    Space for electives. Most degrees leave room for you do extra units. Most perhaps do another major (if there is enough CP left to fit it in) or just take random units that interest them.

    Re: 2012 USYD Chatter Thread Have they worked out the access card price for this year? How is the SSAF affecting it? (UNSW's union is now free)

    Site Redesign Competition ($300 Prize!)

    Get rid of the 'community' and 'resources' boxes on the homepage. They take up way too much space and don't really add anything to the site or make things more accessible or clearer. They were poorly implemented in the first place. I agree with ohexploitable that there needs to be a unified...

    UAC Cut-offs and List of Offers 2012

    Re: Full List of 2012 Main/Early Round offers Works for me. It's a pdf so it requires Acrobat Reader to open. Also some browsers (namely firefox) will save the file to your computer instead of opening it in the browser.

    I'd imagine they'd waive the elec2141 prerequisites then for people enrolled in that degree.

    Semester 1 USYD Chatter Thread

    Re: 2012 USYD Chatter Thread yes, that's fine. Another tip for first years: Make sure you make friends in first semester. Ideally a group of friends. You'll find uni life so so much better. Don't miss the boat. Talk to people in class. Join some clubs and societies.

    Semester 1 USYD Chatter Thread

    Re: 2012 USYD Chatter Thread Tip for first years: No need to dress up for uni. Always get a laugh out of spotting first years. They'll be the ones wearing heels.

    Board of Studies lost my booklets the 2011 Maths exam, WHAT NOW?

    Call BOS ASAP, explain the problem and have them resolve it. It's happened to some others here and they've had it solved by calling BOS. If it is, you'll be issued a new ATAR.

    Monorail may be scrapped

    http://www.smh.com.au/nsw/monorail-likely-to-go-in-tourism-revamp-20120108-1pq81.html http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/travelnews/9001781/Sydney-monorail-set-to-be-torn-down.html Should it stay or go? Waste of space. The problem with it is the fares. Absolute rip off.

    The later rounds are for filling spaces from lapsed offers in earlier rounds. Unis/degrees have different deadlines, but they will be before the following offer round.

    Why is my signature not showing?

    It is showing. The Australian School of Business subforum of the University of New South Wales forum is probably not the right section.....

    Accepting a Main Round Offer

    Depends on the degree/university. Each university has different procedures and deadlines for acceptance/enrolment. For example at usyd there is no such thing as 'acceptance' of an offer. You have to enrol in person at the university on a particular date and time depending on your degree and...
