Hello all! I hope this was the right forum for this. Recently I have completed my Cert: IV in Business Administration, and now, I want to try my hand at a Bachelor in Business.

However, I did NOT finish Year 12, therefore, I didn't recieve an ATAR or finish the required VCE Units 3 & 4. I have looked at the entry requirements and most a I can satisy, but nearing the bottom of the page, the course prerequisites list VCE Units 3 & 4 which I haven't completed.

I checked the MathsLink: General course. Alas, I didn't complete any of my VCE Maths units. (I hate myself for this. But I was stupid and dropped out)

My question is: Am I barred from getting my Bachelor in Business because of this? Or is there another avenue entering this course.

Please let me know. Thanks!

Could you please talk about your experience studying this degree,

what the teachers are like, and

what your cohort is like?

Thank you!

Asking for a friend
If they have a Swinburne early offer but put it in 2nd in the VTAC list of choices and end up getting rejected by their first choice, does the Swinburne offer still stand or do they rescind it? Thanks

Are there any units that you genuinely thought were useful for the future or interesting to learn about? When picking electives I want to do something that would actually be beneficial. Sometimes units feel like you’re just doing them for the sake of it to get through your degrees and you know you’re never going to actually use that knowledge again. I think uni can tend to feel a bit like that unless you’re heading in a very specific field. Is there anything that made you think damn that was actually worthwhile?

Second-last Wednesday of last semester at Swinburne, I asked the two of you in the Late Lab if I could use your hotspot, and we ended up talking for about four hours — Avatar and Jake Sully, Severance, a genuinely heated debate about tea brands, and my good friend's upcoming trip to Japan.

I never got your contact details, which I've been kicking myself about since. If this is you (or you know who I mean), I'd love to pick that conversation back up. :)

Any good spots to nap at Swinburne?

I live 1.5 hours from campus and have early morning classes always tired during the day.

Hi everyone - looking for a reliable study space around me, is it true that to access Swinburne Hawthorn library on weekends a swipe is required? I live relatively close to the uni and am really keen to study at the library but am not a current Swinburne student
