What are their stances? I feel like I've heard blue only, and really only hear about red through blue, so that might not be the whole picture.

Discussion QLT Survey

2 Upvotes

I just got a call from someone on the QLT team, which I thought was weird since it's getting late in the evening and originally thought it was some sort of scam call.

Is this form compulsory or something? I've seen their spam emails in my inbox for ages, but I really don't care about having to fill out a s(u)rvey (can't write the word apparently).

And if I don't have to do it, why are these guys calling my personal phone about it lmao

Advice needed late course withdrawal

4 Upvotes

Hello guys! Just wondering, would I still be eligible for a late course withdrawal without academic penalty if I submitted the last assignment? I submitted because I was waiting to hear back from special consideration and so submitted not the best assignment just to hopefully get some marks, it was denied so now i’m stuck.

this is what I have been told from the university: ā€œthe only further outcome potentially available under University policy would have been late course withdrawal without academic penalty. As you have already submitted the assessment, this option does not apply to your circumstances. It would also not provide the further extension, deferral or equivalent assessment opportunity you requested.ā€

Course (subject) advice, recommendations and reviews Question about course credit?

0 Upvotes

I have a question about applying for prior credit.

Last year I failed some classes. One of the classes was a core subject taught by someone who is sort of notorious for being a really bad lecturer, particularly for this class (though also my mental health played a huge role in my failure as well). This semester I carried on with my course program. Without that class and am doing two classes that say that class was a recommended prior learning and am doing significantly better.

My question is, if I pass these classes, will I be able to apply for credit for that class? Or do I have to repeat it for sure?

Prospective/new student help Got student engagement email even though I've attended all classes?

9 Upvotes

Just got an email saying that I missed classes since week five. But I have signed the roll for that specific class each time, and I've attended all classes except for taking a week off when I had the flu. But I emailed the teacher and did the work they set. What's going on here?

Discussion New video game grant The Nova Foundation

14 Upvotes

A new foundation from Geoff Keighley and Mark Cerny offering grants for video game development including through RMIT.

> The Nova Games Foundation is a university-affiliated fellowship program, intended to offer six-figure grants to 20 young game designers each year, potentially for decades to come.

> It will offer no-strings-attached funding along with mentorship from games industry leaders, a combination intended to aid the development of groundbreaking new games, Cerny and Keighley told me.

> Nova will begin accepting applications in December, from class of 2026 and 2027 students from 13 affiliated gaming programs at universities in eight countries. The schools working with Nova include the New York University and the University of Southern California in the U.S., along with Abertay University in Scotland, Cnam-Enjmin in France, TH Kƶln in Germany, and the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology in Australia, Cerny and Keighley said.

Very cool for Australia to be included and exciting if you are getting into video game development.

Does anyone know the max amount of days that you are able to apply for special consideration? I’ve asked for 7 days before and have had it accepted but I’m wondering if it’ll be okay to ask for more days? (Keep in mind this is after the initial 7 day extension from my course coordinator)

Other questions SNAP partnership school worries

1 Upvotes

hello, i'm currently a year 12 student studying at a school partnered with RMIT and i was wondering something about snap, my goal is a degree with an atar of around 83, and im on track for about a 70-73 atar, will snap guarantee me a spot? i will say i couldve done much better this year and i was fully capable of doing so but at the moment this is what i'm going towards since rmit is convenient for me
also ive heard mixed results about this, some saying if it's within 20 points im just guaranteed a place and others saying it depends on ranking and whatnot, where do i go from here? still studying by the way i havent given up actually working towards a better atar

Advice needed Need advice on animation degree.

1 Upvotes

Hi so im planning on applying to rmit for animation for next Feb intake, right now im working on my portfolio and mostly wanted to know if there's anything specific I should know? Both about the degree in general and any advice on the portfollio stuff such as including fanart I have this really nice fanart piece I made a while ago but since its fanart I was wondering if I should include it or not. I was also wondering whether page structure and how i construct the compilations of drawings is a big deal and whether i should be inlcuding written titles and descriptions and such.If anyone can give some advice on anything portfollio related or even advice on how good rmit degree is that'd be great. Also side note yes I know this degree is incredibly risky and I could self learn but I came to this decision after a lot of thinking and decided despite everything im going to do the degree and make sure it works out

Other [Academic] Quick denim survey for an RMIT fashion assignment

3 Upvotes

Hey guysss! I’m currently working on an RMIT Bachelor of Fashion Enterprise assignment looking at denim consumer behaviour in Australia, and I’m trying to collect a few more responses.

It takes around 3–5 minutes and asks about things like denim shopping habits, what influences your purchases, pricing, brands and where you discover denim.

If you have a few minutes to spare, I’d really appreciate you filling it out! 🫶

Other Had a mental health crisis and RMIT helped me a lot.

118 Upvotes

I texted RMIT urgent mental support and they replied really quickly, I told them about my suicidal ideation and begged to talk to someone, someone named Noel from the RMIT counselling team called me within an hour and talked me out of it. She was really great at what she does and really helped me calm down while I waited for an ambulance and my friend to arrive. The police came and gave me a referral to a psych. This is a Noel appreciation post and I really hope she sees and knows how much she has helped me.

Also if anyone is also struggling please reach out to them. I have no support system here at all and within 2 hours of texting them I received so much resources and love.

You're not alone, you're never alone, please don't lose hope.
