UNSW- What course should I take? And additional questions. (1 Viewer)

[sp2014]

Hello,
I'm from Nepal and I've been offered a place at UNSW for BComm/BEconomics but I don't know if I want to do that. I'm really interested in BComm (international). Could someone please help me and answer these questions?

Is there a chance that the Uni might take back their offer if I try to change my degree? Can I change it once I get to Uni?
Regarding BComm/BEconomics,
Can I take a third major under BComm with my free electives? And if I can, will it be hard to manage and arrange my timetable?

Regarding BComm (intl)
I have to go abroad for a year right? What are my options for that? Also, what will be my expenses (fees, flight tickets, housing, etc.)?
Can I take a third major with my free electives? And if I can, will it be hard to manage and arrange my timetable?

Some additional questions:
When and where should I apply for housing? - I was planning to stay on campus for a semester or two and then look for apartments nearby.
What are the prerequisites for my courses?
How does the party culture work in UNSW?
Anything else I should know before I accept my offer?
(Should I go to UniMelbourne or UniSydney instead?)

Thank you so much

I don't think many people are in the position to answer your questions. I recommend contracting the UNSW office.

Accept and then change choices for next round. Chances are that you will get in.

tl;dr yes you can change
Can't reply specifically for the Commerce degree but...If I were in your position I would

1. Accept the offer to UNSW. UNSW is in the top 10 for accounting/finance, Melbourne has a similar ranking I think.
2. Through the year, do courses that are specific to the Comm (INTL) degree while you are in your Comm/Eco degree - they're very similar degrees and according to the UNSW handbook entry for comm (intl) and comm/eco, the first year courses have a MASSIVE overlap. Your first year could probably be made up of courses that are required for both comm (intl) and comm/eco.
3. Try to get a good WAM - to switch to comm(intl) after you've finished first year you'll need like 70 WAM (its on their website somewhere)

Everything else, I think you should try and look at some stuff on the UNSW website - I have no idea about housing (commuter here) and majors for commerce.
