Title: Changing breadth help!
Post by: golden on March 12, 2012, 06:30:12 pm

I want to change my breadth, but as of the 9th of March I cannot do so online.

Today I went to the EPSC and they told me that I need to email the co-ordinator and get an approval. I've emailed the co-ordinator (I presume that it's the co-ordinator of the subject that you want to get into) but there has been no response as for now.

What should I do? :-\ I can't wait too long otherwise I will have to catch up, and increasing the length of time decreases the chance that I actually am allowed to do this.

Thanks

Until you officially change subjects you can still go to lectures and tutorials. No need to miss out on things.

Unless you're willing to pay for an extra subject, I think you're too late
A lady at the ERC told me the other day that we had til last Friday to swap and change our subjects, now if you change a subject, you'll still have to pay for all of that subject + the other subject you want to switch into

You can change/add/drop subjects until the census date without being charged. The census date is the 31st of March.

Yes that's correct.
I've read somewhere that they usually don't accept people after week 2 unless they get a co-ordinator's approval. So I'm still fine. The big date in terms of being gg is the 31st. But that's so far away that by that time I would have to catch up on heaps, which would probably make me not want to do it.

Hmm good point.
But if I never get it processed (which is what I'm concerned about) there may be no point in even going.
