Last day to apply?

Hey all,

I need to submit an application for the Bachelor of Social Work. I was wondering if anybody knew the cut off date?

Also, I see now the intake for Masters of social work is every couple of years. I'm actually half way through my social work degree, just I left off because it was my last opportunity to do a working holiday in Canada. Do you think there's a chance I might be able to join the masters program where it is, given I've already done some of the units involved? Thanks

HELP ME PLEASE/ CURTIN STUDENTS

Hi guys, please help me out. I'm confused and don't know what to do. I'm doing human structure and function, and I was very sick the last couple of days.

I wasn't able to book an appointment with my doctor on the due date of my e-test, so I ended up missing it. However, I did manage to get an appointment the following day and got myself a medical cert.

Due to the fact that the cert was dated with today's date rather than yesterday, they declined my extension application, and now I'm stressed and frustrated.

this test is worth 25%, AND I REALLY DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO I'm on the verge of crying i know i cant pass overall without doing the test

please someone help me out

Thoughts on Animation and Game Design Major and/or Bachelor of Design?

Hey, I'm looking at starting the Animation and Game Design Major next year, I just wondered if anyone is currently enrolled in it or has completed it in the past would be happy to share their thoughts? Specifically on workload, course material (e.g. is it very outdated) and whether it was worth it in your mind.

I used to be a self taught hobbyist game dev and have dipped my toes into 3D art and animation before, so hopefully a lot of the content in the major will be at least partly familiar.

Thanks!

O' week attendance

I will be a first ever atendee in the new academic year in 2025.

While i understand the basic principle of O Week is to learn how to get around campus and a few other such things.

However, how critical is it too attend? Is just one day enough or is it best for the whole week, or can i not go and simply bluff my way through?

Thank you.

What are some of the most out of touch things you have seen at Curtin University?

Wether it’s a rich kid not understanding how money works or an international student being sloppy when driving his Ferrari what’s something you have seen or heard at Curtin that made you realise your living in a whole different tax bracket?

Health Science Student wanting to transition into pharmacy

hey guys! i am a health science student who originally wanted to transition into pharmacy. I actually failed my last year at curtin but i aimed to do well in my grades this year hoping to transition into pharmacy next year. however i realised they look at CWA of 70. i realised that even if i consistently got 90 throughout the next 2 years of health science my CWA will never be above 70 due to first year failure. is there a way around this? would the admissions team consider my SWA if i lodged an appeal?

FNCE 2000

Did anybody do the Introduction to Finance Principles exam today? How did you find it? I saw a lot of people leaving at the one hour mark. And some super random questions had a lot of marks for them.

ECU wants academic transcript from Curtin?

Hey all,

I’m currently applying to ECU with my cert IV and have received a conditional offer from them to start next semester. The issue is, one of the conditions of entry is that I provide an academic transcript from Curtin. In 2022 I got halfway through Uniready course at Curtin but couldn’t complete it due to extenuating family circumstances. I have checked on Curtin Oasis and they do not provide academic transcripts for that course. I have emailed them and am waiting on a response, just wondering if anyone has been in the same situation? I’m really nervous now that this will impact my ability to go to uni. Thank you

Conceded pass

Has anyone ever received a conceded pass before? If so, just wondering was it in your final year of study? And did you know what mark you got in the exam like 40-45?

[UPDATE] course switching: biomed to bcom 🤏

hai all! i've decided to send in an application for bcom for 2025 intake (yayy)

all i'm worried about at the moment is my exams. im not doing too well in two of my units, and if i fail the exams i would be on the border of not passing my units #lol. not sure if this is a silly question but would that affect the likelihood of me getting accepted for bcom?

i havent completely given up on these exams as ive been studying - but still would want to know if me failing isap would greatly impact me getting into a completely different degree.

thankszz

Not going to an exam

I have a calculus exam in November but i got an offer for another course that i wanted to get into. Is anything going to happen if i don’t go and do the exam? Like I don’t care about failing the unit because it’s kinda useless now. Just wondering if anything else would happen apart from failing the unit?

FOP Piazza is fuckin useless

Nothing but love for Valarie (genuinely one of the best teachers who WANTS you to pass no matter what) but jesus christ its like the tutors go out of their way to be unhelpful.

Most half assed responses Ive ever seen, the whole point of piazza is so that you can get guidance and help. One liners to specific questions arent gonna help anyone.

Some effort in an already widely critiqued course would be nice...

Assessment Extensions Denied

I'm really stressing out, and my tutors for one of my units have been so unhelpful this whole semester, but I am unsure if they are in the right and I am not doing my job.

I got kicked out of my parents house due to an argument last week for a week, and was couch hopping, while also having to show up for work. I was under stress every single day for that week, and was just allowed back home over the weekend after calling the police in front of my family for them to talk to me.

I have an assignment due this Friday that I hadn't started until yesterday due to my lack of sleep and not eating for a week.
I tried to submit an application of extension for this assignment and they replied to me saying it's not a good enough reason for an extension. I'm so saddened and I'm trying so hard to do well in this semester and I thought the university wanted to help students, but this is what I got instead and was told being basically homeless for a week wasn't a good enough reason to have a few days extra to do my assignment.

Am I in the wrong and being immature for feeling this way, or is the university correct for denying my plea?

Additional assignments to pass the unit?

Has anyone failed a unit by not much, and they were able to do a supplementary task/assignment to pass? I haven't failed anything yet, but not feeling great about my marks this semester.
