Can I get an idea of which one is better?
In terms of study and in terms of job offers after uni?
thanks!
-
I think monash. Monash has the higher reputation. However, rmit has an accounting course where they give you a free job in the fourth year. So you get practical experience with rmit.
-
edit (completely mixed up lol)
someone at my work did accountancy at rmit. she found a job... someone else did accountancy at a tafe and she hasn't found a job yet
-
thank you :)
also help me with this thread here?: http://vce.atarnotes.com/forum/index.php/topic,35398.0.html
or i might as well post the questions here
If I do Accountancy at RMIT would I be able to transfer to Melb Uni Commerce the following year?
Or Professional Accountancy at RMIT?
& what are my chances of making it into Bachelor of Professional Accountancy at RMIT if my ATAR is well below clear in 86.1 but above 80?
I have SEAS but I think my chances are close to zero..
-
just going on generalities
theres a higher chance you will be able to transfer into professional accountancy at rmit than melbourne...although if your grades are high then there is certainly a possibility of transferring to melbourne uni either mid year or end of year
they will look at your uni scores more i believe if you've finished a year at rmit
and theres also chance that you can cross credit some of the units at rmit if transferring internally but theres also a real possibility if you transfer to melbourne that you can't and you might have to start from square 1

^ back from square once, ouch. Thanks TL
I'm more towards Accounting @ Monash now, I don't think the uni provides work experience like Professional Accountancy at RMIT does it?

Nope, however I think there is a leadership program that is acknowledged by Accounting institutions (CA/CPA etc.) and firms (EY/PWC/Deloitte) which would then get you into a program/guaranteed job afterwards

r u talking bout this?
http://www.monash.edu.au/pubs/handbooks/courses/0169.html
it says
The outstanding feature of the course is two periods of structured industry-based learning. Students selected to undertake the degree are awarded a scholarship of $8000 per annum in their second and third years of study. The scholarships are provided by industry sponsors, who play an important role in the industry-based learning periods. During the industry-based learning periods, students will work in corporate settings and complete specified projects determined jointly by academics and sponsors.
and here
Participants complete three 12 to 14 week industry placements for a total of 9.5 months work experience over three years.
so i guess you do get work experience which is great
-
Nope the one I'm taking is at Caulfield, I don't think Caulfield's have work exp
-

http://www.monash.edu/study/coursefinder/course/0315

-

http://www.buseco.monash.edu.au/esg/cds/publications/professional-recognition.html
-
oh clayton is too far for my liking
and they dont specify a clear in ATAR
^ thanks ill look at that :)
-
ah so your not attracted by the work experience eh
although for selection they also need these
ATAR, form and interview
so i guess its too late now if you haven't done those
-
course im interested in the work exp, but yea I saw the selection earlier and realized its late
I'll see how it works out at caulfield for me. thanks a lot :) ur a great help!
-

if you look here one person finished it at caulfield
"Since I have recently finished the first year of the BBus(Acc)/BBus(B&F) at Monash Caulfield, my comments can only be confined to the aforementioned course and campus. I have found Monash Caulfield to be an exceptionally organised institution with excellent lecturers and tutors offering not only theoretical knowledge but the application and evidence of such theories in the current business climate..." etc
-
Thanks for the luck :) I hope I can study in uni
& Hey thats a great find! BBus(Acc)/BBus(B&F) at Monash Caulfield is my dream course to begin with but ATAR failed me
-
u can always transfer after 1st year
so all you have to do now is put the correct preference order and wait
-
yep. that will do for now
I'm .20 off clearin for accounting@monash + seas, my chance can't be that slim ?
-
dunno its a possibility
it could come down this year
