Monash Accounting vs RMIT Accounting
*Roxxii*:
Oh, i see. Yeah, just put UoM down and hope for the best :)
If you don't get in, you'll get to do the same course as me and see me around...
Win-win situation ;) hahaha

But in terms of employment outcomes, it would differ depending on your employer. Some might perceive Monash more credible, some wouldn't look into it too much, but there is not much chance of RMIT being favoured over Monash. It *could* play a part in their decision making, but there are MANY other aspects to look at, ie Uni marks, experience, extra-curricular activities...
Also, note that at RMIT, the accounting course is Bachelor of Business and at Monash it is a Bachelor of Commerce. And some firms *may* prefer Commerce grads over Business grads.
And i just looked back at my posts earlier...haha
Looks like i changed my mind :P
I've decided on going to Monash and that education>convenience.
So yeah, 3 hours a day of traveling for me, until i move out :D weeeeeeeeee cant wait XD

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 :)

See... I wouldn't even do a degree if I wanted 2 get in2 management... I think exp plays a much more vital role.
Like, a couple of weeks ago I was offered the assistant manager position @ the place where I volunteer.
I politely declined tho... I really want 2 focus on my studies and not have 2 worry bout keeping a bunch of solicitors happy XD

Haha. I wonder how many VNers I'll run into next year without even knowing it.
If I do go to Monash, I'll be able to do the language I want (I was in that stationery store in the city today, and trying to read random words was pretty fun, lol).

Should I call UoM to see if my application was accepted or not? Urgh. The wait is killing me, just tell me straight if I won't get in, I don't want to wait another month to know my fate :(
