Requirements of the Finance major are set out here: Majors - The University of Sydney

Again, what degree will you be doing?

 

[lordesf]

oh thx, im doing commerce

 

[Rafy]

Have you had a read of: Courses - The University of Sydney

In first year you'll usually do most of those junior core units listed. (Make sure you do all the junior units needed for finance). Usually the rest of the subjects you pick are either electives or the units you'll need for a second major.

There are examples on the page I linked to.

Full general details online at All you need to know about enrolment - START - The University of Sydney

Specific details on what and how many units of study you choose naturally depends on your degree

 

[wilsonli]

Just the junior units. But it's not a bad idea to begin thinking about what majors you would like to do in senior years to make sure that you have done the necessary pre-requisities.

 

[kristydolphins]

so we have to pick junior year units, but not senior year. what about intermediate years, do they have to be picked as well?
also, do u pick ur units on enrolment day, or at another time?

 

[Rafy]

On enrolment day. You are picking the subjects for both of this year's semesters.


You can change your semester 1 subject choices right up to mid march.

Can anybody enlighten me on the enrollment process for transfers?

Provided I get the transfer, will I have to enroll in person like the 1st years, or can I just vary things online via MyUni's pre-enrollment?

 

[kristydolphins]

You select the units you wish to study in your 1st year on enrolment day. These will be primarily junior units. However, once you are enrolled you will be able to vary the units you're enrolled in online.

oh kk... thanx heaps

You enrol in person.

Dont forget to then withdraw from your old degree and also apply for subjects you did in your old degree to be credited to your new one.

Most textbooks will be available at the co-op bookshop. Closer to the start of semester, you will be able to see what books are suggested for what subjects at this website: The Co-op Online Bookshop - textbooks, books, course notes, study guides, software

However, I would advise you to wait until semester begins to get these texts - because sometimes they aren't required. It's a good idea to wait and see what your lecturer says is necessary.

You will also probably need to buy course readers - which are photocopied collections of book chapters and articles. You can find which of these are available through the "Students Notes Onlne" section of myuni - which you won't be able to access until you enrol. These course readers usually aren't available until ~1 week before semester begins, and sometimes even later.

Wait until after your first lectures before buying any textbooks/readers. You'll find that many of the books on text lists you won't need. Each of your lecturers will tell you exactly what is required.

However you'll eventually find a text list for many subjects here: http://www.coop-bookshop.com.au/page_images/hero_textlists0812.jpg

Yep you have to pick subjects on enrolment day. But you can change them online after that day, so you don't need to get too stressed about it.
