No government funding for me (although I do qualify in a month!).

Only if you transfer to a uni more than 100km from your current address though.

$6k purely on relocation/start up scholarships

$388 a fortnight for youth allowance

I've never understood the left's position on VSU/CSU.

They constantly complain about the size of HECS debts and student poverty, yet it's apparently okay to increase that debt through compulsory fees.

I would have expected them to argue that the government should directly fund these services.

 

[boris]

hey hey hey what constitutes full time study gogogo

 

[Rafy]

 

[Lolsmith]

18 units a semester or higher

but

BUT

what if

I get the scholarship

then I drop units down to part-time study

will they be any the wiser

 

[Azure]

hey hey hey what constitutes full time study gogogo

3 Units per semester is the minimum load for full time study

 

[boris]

18 units a semester wha the fucking what
what

1 course per unit 4 units a semester?

or wat

 

[boris]

3 Units per semester is the minimum load for full time study

dats better

right so what if trimesters

2 units per study period, 6 per year? same as 3 per semester?

 

[Azure]

As far as I know in the eyes of Centerlink or whatever if you do 3 units per semester for two semesters you'll still be considered a full time student even if you skip the third (in trimester situation). If you go below that at any point then you're automatically considered a part time student iirc.

 

[boris]

centrelink confirmed r-tards

 

[Lolsmith]

18 units a semester wha the fucking what
what

1 course per unit 4 units a semester?

or wat

courses at UNSW are done in higher amounts

so I do courses in my latter stages of my degree at 3 units of credit which are basically half a course and 6 units of credit which are a full course

So say I did full time study this year

and went to 3 units a semester next year BUT I dropped down before census date so I receive no financial or academic penalty wot then

 

[Rafy]

Full time is anything higher than a 0.75 EFTSL
