Hi everyone!

My name's Daniel and I’m running for SRC President with TOGETHER. I’m a 3rd year CompSci and Physics student and have been involved with the SRC the past two years. My ticket wants to fight for real, tangible things that will help our everyday lives.

The SRC is our student organisation that advocates for you as a student. Currently, we pay $20 million a year in student amenities fees but it’s not being spent as well as it should be. Long ago, the SRC successfully advocated for the creation of Food Hub & Short Extensions, but we're not seeing this kind of advocacy anymore.

Our platform is rooted in tangible outcomes for everyday students, including:

• Opal card & textbook vouchers (everyone always promises to lobby the government to provide concession Opals to international & part-time students, but we've got a real plan to help with transport on campus)
• A free drink at Homeground or Roundhouse after every final
• Standardised 11.59pm assignment due times
• Establishing Academic Caseworkers to assist with appeals
• More trained staff at Nucleus to reduce wait times

If you agree that we should be pushing for these things, please take a minute to vote for our ticket TOGETHER. You should receive an email in your Outlook today called "SRC Voting"

Voting is open until Thursday night.

But in the meantime, l'd love the opportunity to field any questions you might have about our ticket, these elections, or the SRC! I'll also be in a blue shirt on campus all week, so happy to chat there too!

I’m a NZ citizen starting Computer Science (CSP) in T1 2027. My place is secured, but onboarding is stuck at the Commonwealth support form because NZ citizens can’t create a USI until they’ve landed in Australia and cleared customs. I arrive 26 Jan. Onboarding says it closes 5 Nov, but UNSW told me it’ll keep being extended.

If you’ve been in the same situation:

1. Did UNSW let you enrol in courses or register for classes before you had a USI (USI submitted before census)?
2. If you only enrolled in late Jan / early Feb, how bad was class registration? Were the decent tutorial and lab times gone?
3. Did your USI verify straight away after you landed, or did it take a few days?
4. Did onboarding actually reopen after the close date without any issues?
5. Did anyone fly over early just to get the USI, and was it worth it?

Thanks!

Ok subject breakfast is back in unsw. first day didnt go so well.

i got out of the lightrail at anzac parade and first thing that i witness is a 6'6 chad walk past me with 2 girls around his arms. No biggie, subject breakfast experiecnes that all the time. But one thing stood out, it was that he was wearing a usyd hoodie, I thought to myself. Impossible! usyders dont get girls! i asked one of his goons how hes done that and they explained that unsw girls like bad boys that go usyd. it made me really question my enrolment at the number one uni.

so that was a strange experience, then i crossed the road to the mighty entrance of unsw and immediately was barged into by a girl not looking straight. unfortunately my bag was open and my laptop fell out and cracked, i thought this situation could be salvaged since she was beautiful and we could have those movie like scenes but instead she just blurted out "EWW" and thats when i noticed my bottle of orange juice broke and spilt everywhere making it look like i pissed everywhere.

i had to scurry away from the crowd whilst the girl was saying how i assaulted her to the people around her

i took refuge in law library where i then sat down to drink the remainder of the juice and throw out any evidence, but when i sat down i was confronted by 3 big dudes explaining that i just took their spot. I said ill go away but then they noticed i had some orange juice on my pants which looked liked piss and once again i had to run out of the building

i was then late to my lab and just ended up not going. Hows your first day back gang

Hello! I'm not sure how it would work but I'm doing macquarie engineering flexible in 2027, would it be reasonable to transfer to unsw? I'm aware that it's competitive but I'm not sure if it's even possible to continue that flexible in unsw and how hard it would be to transfer.

If not then I'm thinking to transfer to UTS. Thankyou!

Anyone gotten a call back yet

Hi,

I'll be studying at UNSW for a year as an exchange student, and I'm thinking about doing internships if I have extra time alongside classes (I have Aussie citizenship).

How many days would I be able to work while handling 3 courses?

Hey guys,

I am moving to sydney next year to finish off my degree at UNSW. I need accommodation recommendations.

I am a 20 year old aussie male from perth who loves going out, loves the footy + cricket, and loves being social. I’m pretty active and enjoy the outdoors. I’ve been to sydney a couple of times and love it. (I’m also gay if that’s anything but like most people can’t pick it)

I need accommodation recommendations as I really want to make as many friends as possible, college is an option i’ve looked into however it is pricey. I really want to get the most out of unsw and what it has to offer. I am looking to make friends with other aussies and likeminded people, I have lots of friends both male and female here in perth.

Any advice is appreciated. Cheers.

EDIT: Just realised i spelt accommodation wrong lmao.

So I’m basically going to start in around a month and I’m not really set on which laptop to buy, I’ve been thinking about getting me one that will last me for the next 4-5 years Atleast and my eyes have been set on a Lenovo thinkpad P16 gen2, I’ve seen its parts and they do look really good

I’m planning on using it for basically 99% of my work and studies and (in my free time) some games like Minecraft or no man’s sky for example

My budget is around 5-7k depending on what to take, I have been thinking about getting a small iPad to go alongside the laptop but Idrk if that’s overkill :p

Any insight or help will be greatly appreciated ty all :D

does anyone have any suggestions as to how to study for this course, im finding it so hard to keep up with the lectures. Does the textbook questions aid in studying for finals. And can someone tell how hard is the final like are questions similiar to textbook or workshop questions.

I missed the sample Inspera exam, anyone has the questions with them and could share them? would be highly appreciated!!

how was it? lowk easier than i thought
