    Travel Concession

    You need to be enrolled as a FULLTIME student to obtain a sticker... you job etc. has nothing to do with this as your uni can never really find out where and how you work... so when they ask just say your not working (thats if they will ever ask).

    Anyone know anything about transferring courses?

    I think to transfer into combined degree you have to apply through UAC again at the end of first year.. You need to maintain a GPA of 5.0 in order to transfer into a combined degree with Law.. GPA of 5.0 = Credit average... so in the first 8 units you do.. make sure you get credits in...

    I get what you are tryin to say... but sometimes with other commitments (work etc.) its kinda hard to keep up a distinction or high distinction average... so its good to know that you can get credits and still be in the same place (GPA restart) as HD/D students when you transfer lol. Once you...
