Not meeting pre-requisites..

[xox.happy1.xox]

i was in one of those student profiles in the age education section during the year too and i said i was either going to do rmit media or bond uni film/tv next year, so maybe i can cut that out too? haha

i'm just gonna go into rmit and say "even though i didn't meet the english pre-requisite, YOU WANT ME!!"

Yes, definitely cut that out.

RMIT NEEDS you, I bet most of those students  doing media didn't even do media as a VCE subject, let alone get a FIFTY in it!!!

thanks happy i'll charge into rmit either tomorrow or on friday and let you all know how i go! i might call before i go and try and organise a time for an interview though, so we'll see.

Speak to the head of your school (or the selections officer - details listed at the bottom of the pdf)

Info needed is here: http://mams.rmit.edu.au/mnm0sozqise7.pdf

Good luck

[rargh]

Oh awesome thanks heaps for that link gfb!! I didn't even know that existed.

Might give the selection officer a call tomorrow.. fingers crossed

[costargh]

does anyone know the selection officer for Melbourne or monash university (if there is specfic ones for facultys, for the business and economics/commerce faculty)

[rargh]

I found this page:

http://www.economics.unimelb.edu.au/SITE/ContactUs/admstaff.shtml

You might want to call the course enquiries number and ask them who the admissions manager/officer overseeing Commerce admissions is?

No problem . The course coordinator of my school @ RMIT is really understanding, hope the Media one is the same .

Good luck! Make sure you let us know what happens. If I were in charge of admissions, I'd definitely let you in!

[rargh]

thanks eriny fingers crossed!

i'm actually already enrolled up at bond university on the gold coast to do communications up there majoring in film and tv (i got a scholarship), but i still want to get into a course down in melbourne and defer that for a year so if i hate bond i can always fly back down to melbourne and still go to uni

i'm sure i won't hate bond, but if i'm coming back to melbourne i wouldn't want to do any course other than rmit media!

Hey guys, Don't think I need to start another thread.

I'm in the same position.  Pretty much the degree I want requires an English SS of 25, but I got 23.  I want to go to Monash, and did Enhancement studies there this year with a HD average of 93.5

I've had no luck so far with the admissions office, can anyone give me some advice of where to go next?

[costargh]

From the correspondance I've had with Monash University about this in the past few days the answer is basically:
"Fuck off, go to another University or enroll in a course where the pre-requisite isn't a requirement"

Plus the administration at Monash are rude pricks, condescending and uppity.
