Further assessment timetable

So I have received my further assessment timetable, however I am not available on the date it’s scheduled for due to unavoidable work commitments. What can I do? Is it possible to do it for another time? I think my assessment will be a resit for the exam and I’m scared I’ll have to just fail and redo the unit

Academic Transcript from UniReady?

Hi there
I've recently completed UniReady and want to complete my application for undergrad. However, when I get to the 'offer conditions, ' it then asks me for evidence of previous education/qualifications, such as transcripts or award certificates. When I go to find my academic transcript it says it will cost $20 for a digital copy. I have read other posts on here and other students have suggested using the academic e-record but this doesn't have any unit details of mine on it.

If I don't get into a course switch, do I just keep on trying until I do

I just finished 4 units this semester which is the requirement for oral therapy and CWA of 70.

I finished on 78 CWA though I still have my doubts in getting in as it is very competitive

I am studying nursing, so if i do not get it, do I just keep doing 4 units until I hopefully get in one day
I mean i think I happy with nursing as it is a secure job

T.L. Robertson Library Floor Tier List (correct)

S Tier:

  • Lvl 7 (Godly views at times, comfy spots, banger whiteboards, can be a bit noisy on busy days though)
  • Lvl 5 (Super good windows for nice views, nice study rooms, cool study booths, easy access to balcony on lvl 4 for fresh air. Overall good vibes)

A Tier:

  • Lvl 3 (Reading room very underrated, easy access to leave the library and get some fresh air, good vibes)

B Tier:

  • Lvl 4 (Balcony section pretty nice, but 5 > 4)

C Tier:

  • Lvl 2 (The section with the comfy seats is good, but that's about it. Library cafe food meh)

D Tier:

  • Lvl 6 (Boring. Only good if library is busy, but IMO, reading room on level 3 is a much better study space)

??? Tier:

  • Lvl 1 (??? what is this level??????)

Termination status

I am an international student and my academic status has been changed to terminate? I am planning to appeal and apply for course change. Is it possible or has there been any international student who experienced the same and had positive outcomes?

Activity fee

Not to be that guy or anything but does anyone really know where the activity fee goes for student accommodation? For some context I’m living at twin currently and the events advertised on the bulletin boards on each floor that appear to be a twin dolphin event don’t really seem to add up to the 700$ everyone is paying if that’s what our activity fee goes to such as a hide and seek competition.

Exam marks

I'm a first year student and I'm wondering why units dont let you see your own exam paper.

I also have to calculate the marks I got for my exams as well (but this isnt a big deal)

Does this only happen in computing units or is this common elsewhere?

Code of Conduct Office Timeframe

Morning Curtin-gang!

I (alongside many others it seems) have been put into the precarious position of defending myself against accusations of AI usage. Whilst I feel this charge has been unfairly levelled, I understand that there is a process to follow etc.

However my anxiety about this has been absolutely mental. It has been over a month since the charges were levelled and I have still not heard back.

Does anyone with recent experience have any idea of how long the wait to hear back is? This is impacting me in my holidays, and my capacity to make holiday plans etc. etc.

FWIW; 2nd year teaching student, never had this before etc blah blah. First year unit that I am doing due to studying PT and working FT for a period in my first year

Thanks!

Has anyone (not rural) actually course switched into med successfully?

Hi everyone, I’ve heard of people switching into med from other degrees but usually they are rural and i am not. I’ve tried twice now, i’m really low on motivation at this point, idk if it’s worth it, should i just try one more time? is getting into med even worth it? So, any help at all and into any direction will be super helpful.

  1. is med worth it now after already wasting time and not getting?
  2. rural or not, what scores did you get to course switch successfully?
  3. if not med, then what other health related jobs are available that pay well?

Thank you.

Is Curtin the best uni for computer science/software engineering?

I am a year 12 graduate from NSW and am moving to WA soon and will attend university there. I am interested in studying some sort of computer science or software engineering degree (not really sure yet, if anyone could explain the difference that would be great) and would like to know which university would be best for me. I expect to get an ATAR of 90+, from the posts and reviews I've looked at so far I've gotten a lot of mixed opinions on which uni in WA is best for IT. I am also less interested in 'research oriented' courses in general so that may influence my decision. I would like to know if Curtin is my best option or if UWA or ECU would be better. Thanks in advance.

Options as a HSE Student

Hey guys, I'm moving into my second year of my health safety and science degree, and I'd like to get more involved into the course but I'm having trouble finding any societies or communities for HSE students in the Bentley Campus.

Also is there any jobs that relate to the course that i can potentially do as a student, since as of right now my career history involves more contact centre roles and customer service, and i was hoping to move into something more course related to perhaps gain more experience in what i study.

Also graduated students any tips on what to do from there, which direction to head ? I'm currently based in Perth.

if any of you would like to connect my LinkedIn is https://www.linkedin.com/in/avin-shaju-93aaa626a/.

Academic Warning for AI

Hey, I’m feeling a bit confused today. I'm in my 3rd year last semester and I received a GNS in one of my modules, along with an academic integrity warning, and this is the first time it’s happened.

One of my assignments was flagged for AI use, but I didn’t use AI at all—just the Curtin Grammarly tool. I was asked to complete two tasks: (1) read the Academic Integrity Guide and (2) inform my UC once I’ve completed it.

After reading the guide, something like ‘submitted’ appeared, but I’m not sure what exactly was submitted, I just pressed on submit.

Also, in my enrollment section, all modules are marked as passed except the one with GNS, which says ‘enrolled.’ Does this mean everything is okay?

Has anyone else experienced this?
