champorado:
Roxxii, whereabouts are you from? I'd have to travel around the same amount of time as you. :( (bus train train bus. sounds like fun.)

i'm stuck..
i'm choosing between doing a accounting/banking & finance double degree at caufield..
and accountancy at RMIT..
of course i would like to go to monash..it's more highly regarded..(i guess)
and i also like the campus too!..but i would have to travel further..
RMIT..the campus @@..(not as good)..and some emplyers don not prefer RMIT grads??
but i dont have to travel that far..it take me shorter to get there..
and the work experience they offer is very appealing to me..

Just ask around, maybe go to the campus, get a feel for the atmosphere, you'll be spending like 3 or more years at the university, you will need to like the atmosphere, also the location of the campus is important, you need to look at whether or not you can afford living on campus...
Honestly... in some cases, as rare as they are, they will look at experience as well as which Uni you attended..
Without going into too much detail... my mother never went to university or tafe [it wasn't that she couldn't get in because she got around 90 something back in the day when it was HSC, with only 3 years of english, in the day when there was no ESL], she just completed some short courses, and now she's Admin, HR and Planning Manager for the company she works for... and it's also possible my mother's employer is thinking of making her Co-owner/General Manager...
Hope that helps :)

I live in Bulleen, on the east side, in an area where there are no trains near me :(
I have to catch a bus to the city (which will be packed in the mornings with people going to work and uni, plus the traffic will be SO SO bad, i'm predicting around 45 mins or more)
The bus isn't even gonna take me to flinders or something, i'll get off a parliament, it'll go to flinders, stop for a while, then go clayton.
So if you count that as 2 train rides, i'm also doing bus, train, train, bus :D weeeeee fun fun lol ::)
Where do you live? Are you willing to travel that distance everyday? What are your other choices?

Haha, I live up north (around Thomastown, Epping if that helps). My enter was below Melbourne's clearly-in for Commerce this year, but I called that hotline, and the lady said that I could possibly get in, though it depended on demand. So yeah, it's a toss up between Melbourne and Monash for me. If I get rejected from Melbourne, I'll have to travel to Monash whether I like it or not.
