Accepting

[panicatthelunchbar]

Hey guys, so I got an email today from deakin. They linked me to get enrolled, but one of the steps is to choose units and I have no idea what I'm going to do yet :/ Do you guys know what the closing date is to accept? Or is there another way to accept?

A few of my friends were having issues with Deakins system. From what I can gather, you enter the unit codes from the course you wish to enrol into. So, say you got accepted into a Bachelor of Arts and wanted to major in Sociology :

You would need to choose certain subjects to fit the course accordingly. The way Arts is set up is following this rule:

Select 6 credit points, including compulsory core units ASC308 and ASC250 and 2 level 3 units

And obviously for other courses, the core-reqs would change with different codes etc.

So you'd choose the subjects you'd like to study, including the core subjects have to make up 6 credits:

-ASC308 - Sociology and the Modern World (core unit)
-ASC250 - Social Research: An Introduction (core unit)
-ASC101 - Introduction to Sociology A (elective 1, Trimester 1)
-ASC102 - Introduction to Sociology B (elective 2, Trimester 2)
-ASC246/ASC346 - Sociology of the Media and Popular Culture (elective 3, Trimester 1)
-ASC304 - Culture and Control: Boundaries and Identities (elective 4, Trimester 2)
Don't follow me on that, but from what I can read that would make the most sense when enrolling. That makes up 6 credit points and would shape your semesters (I think) so when you are enrolling you enter those course codes.
Best thing you can do is ring the university they won't bite!

I did get an email on Monday, and it says we have 10 working days to accept...but my info sesh for my course is on the 1st Feb :/

I came to the page where it asks for the units, but what if I don't know which ones I want to do!

Have you had a look at the course structures for your degree?

[panicatthelunchbar]

Yeah! I have no idea what to major in yet :/
I called them and they said I accept all the units listed, because they are compulsory anyway.... don't get the logic but oh well!

Thanks for all the help! Good luck ths year guys

I have a question, when do we choose our elective subjects?  When I enrolled they only had the compulsory subjects so I ticked those boxes...

depends on your course mine is nursing/midwifery and all my units are pre-determined so i just confirmed them all. if you have a elective subject, you just select the browse unit button and choose your electives that adhere to the courses rules, for credit point purposes. Just have a look at the rules involved in each course at the deakin website

the course advisor called me back and I enrolled into my elective you were meant to type in the code for that subject =.= lol
