it's good if you can afford it... Pretty much, you need a 2.0 average (pass) to get into a defered HECS place at Maq. over a year.

I was looking into it last year, only thing that stoped me was the price - You pay as though you are a local full fee paying student which is alot of money...

UTS has non-award? If so, I dunno, better asking someone from UTS mate.

If you mean does Mac. Non-Award make it easier to get into UTS then I doubt it. It's just a back door entry to Macquarie.

non award study is another way of getting into uni.

i THINK you need a UAI of at least 60 to get into the program.

after having completed 12 credit points, thats 4 subjects, either full time(4 subjects in 1 semester) or part time(2 subjects in 2 semesters), and passed them all with a GPA of 2.0 or higher, you are accepted into macquarie into a general degree. i think their a BA or BSc.

you of course have to pay for those units that you do, which should cost you around $5k.....




UTS doesn't have a system like we do at MQ. i think you are referring to UTS's InSearch. which is equivalent to MQ's SIBT.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Non-award enrolment is available in undergraduate and postgraduate units on a tuition-fee-paying basis. Students enrol in one or more University units (subjects), undertaking a study load at a pace that suits their needs.

* pursue a new interests for general personal development
* participate in professional development and extension by upgrading or learning new skills
* pathway into a degree program, either
* BA, BSc, BEd(Early Childhood), after the completion of at least 12 credit points, with an overall grade point average of 2.0 or better for all the credit points attempted

OR

* BA- Psychology or BSc – Psychology after the completion of at least 12 credit points, with an overall grade point average of 2.5 or better for all the credit points attempted.

Enrolment at the University in single units is named non-award because a student is not currently enrolled for an award, that is, a degree, diploma or certificate program at Macquarie University. The credit-point value of Non-award units successfully completed can be included in a Macquarie degree at a later time.

Most units are half-year (single semester) units. Some are offered in the evening and/or by distance study.

An application for each unit will be assessed by Department/s offering the unit, in order to determine whether an applicant has sufficient academic background to manage the work required for that unit. If a unit has specific prerequisites (study which must be completed, or a requirement that must be satisfied before enrolment in that unit is permitted), verified documentation must be provided to enable a decision to be made.
Application does not guarantee enrolment in a unit.
