    sydney uni village

    When I went for the tour, they said that they would try to rearrange housemates if the present combination wasn't working. Maybe you could try that?

    Question about Textbooks

    I've just ordered a reader for French and History, but I realised I forgot to leave my phone number. I chose to collect the order, but how do I know when they'll be ready to pick up? The website says if you order before 3pm, you can pick up the next day. I ordered it at round 8pm, so would I be...

    Question about Textbooks

    Yes, I've checked it online. So far, only one French grammar book is available. Nothing else for my other subjects are. Should I just keep checking back? Because every single unit has a course reader, right?

    Tutorials in the First Week

    Btw, you can redirect your email from the university email address to your own personal email address to make checking emails more convenient, just in case you haven't set that up yet.

    Question about Textbooks

    How about course readers and such? My French lecturer has been sending me (us) lots of emails and directed us to get some stuff from the copy centre. While I'm there, should I be trying to get course readers for other subjects or should I wait till classes start?

    Flexipass, Weeklies or Return Tickets?

    I was a little confused about this initially too. I catch a private bus, a train and then a public bus to uni. Finally decided to get a weekly concession ticket for the private bus and a weekly TravelPass for the train+bus. The TravelPass, depending on which zone colour you get (which depends on...

    Travel pass for train & private+public buses

    Yeah, I think I'll stick with the yellow travel pass + private bus pass. I looked up google maps and it says it takes about 20 mins to walk from Redfern Station to Fisher Library. (I do an arts degree so I think I'll be closer to Fisher Library than the south of the university.) Anyway, those 20...

    Travel pass for train & private+public buses

    luxslash89, haha. It's worse when it's hot, but otherwise, it's tolerable. Travel time comes up to only about an hour anyway. h3da, no, there aren't state buses from my home to the station. I haven't got a car yet but when I do, I might be looking at driving between home and the station as...

    Travel pass for train & private+public buses

    CityRail's TravelPass includes transport on buses and trains. However, does that include private buses? My travel route is as follows: Home -> Parramatta Station: Hopkinsons Bus (private) Parramatta Station -> Central Station (train) Central Station -> Sydney Uni (bus) I'm a bit confused with...

    Choosing Tutorials/Lectures

    So...which would you choose? It seems like it's a choice between 4 packed days at the uni or 5 days that are more spaced out, is that right?

    Choosing Tutorials/Lectures

    USYD states that "any viewing of your timetable may re-allocate all your classes." Does anyone know why? It seems awfully dangerous, if you know what I mean.

    Introductory German - what is it like?

    Haha, yeah. Well, I've decided to take German in the second year instead and do a History unit instead this semester. The reason I chose to do that was because the initial plan meant I would do zero German in the second year and that would make it hard to pick up again in the third year. After...

    Introductory German - what is it like?

    Can you tell me more about what it was like? How much one-on-one was there? I mean, I know at uni that's a lot to ask, but it is still a language. At the moment, my biggest concern is that I'll be doing advanced French and intro German in the first semester. I reakky do want to study German a...

    Relevant course for HTML, Coding?

    To be honest, if you want to be a HTML coder, you don't really need any tertiary training. Most web designers are self-taught. But then, you mentioned wanting to do online journalism. Several options here: USYD's BA (Media and Communications) covers general media work and touches briefly in on...
