Thanks for your reply!
btw,do you think those international education services provider such as IDP can help me in this? I mean contact the university.
Anyway,do you have any idea whether that degree from which of the University I mentioned above is recognized by CFA? As for Monash,it is confirmed recognized and accredited as I am studying there. but,I am not sure about UNSW and Melbourne U. can help?

For credit transfer it's better to corresponds with each of the uni you're interested in and see how it goes from there.
A bit of advice start early especially if you want you credits to be transferred unless there is a twinning agreements already in place.

Remember upload is counted, so if you torrent not a good plan to be on, but of course you can limit your upload speed.
At $60 price-points there are better price/data ratio on the market e.g TPG, but for me Internode there are a lot of free data/un-metered contents especially for Steam(great during this holidays season) and iView and service is reliable and also good customer service. And no off-peak and on-peak restriction, aka use your data when ever you want to use it.
And Naked = no paying phone line rent.

why? You can do your student visa as early as 120 days before course commencement. If you have everything ready you should do right away, it's more convenient to do it before the whole crowd comes in.

But this year enrollment will be lower compare to previous year.
But still apply early to get your accommodation done, I think by this time of the year uni/college accommodation should have some spare to go by.

hi, do u guys buy your textbooks in Aus? Or buy them in M'sia and bring em over to Aus? I've been told that the books in Aussie costs a bomb yawn.gif

Do not buy your books before starting your course, yes text books are expensive here but the 2nd hand market here is a tad cheaper some are in excellent conditions.
And not all course requires a text book, if you wanna really save $$$, ask someone to buy it in Malaysia and PosLaju it to Australia if you really need those books.
And books are customs-free importing in, so long it is less than AUD$1000(including postage) in values.

to ensure the reimbursement is approved later in 2011 due to the fact that the visa is done within the year 2011
that's what our lecturer told us and yeah we can do it now but might not be able to get the reimbursement from the gov if its done now. due to some circumstances

It has to be noted that some textbooks which are used in Australia are not available in Malaysia. Secondly, at times it is far more cost effective to order from amazon.com than bring from Malaysia. Unless you know for sure what books you will need, I would advice against trying to bring books from M'sia on the initial journey.

Your luggage allowance can be used for far more interesting things.

Edit: typo's.

Currently now the best and most reliable one is with amnet, iinet, internode. And yeah the price is quite competitive, so mayb package and deal will change in the nxt few months? But I'm getting internode since it's the best for gaming, holiday don't go bk malaysia + part time work. So xbox 360 and game when i'm free cool2.gif for internode price list click here
But if you just want cheap and reliable connections, there's dodo and others.

Perth is perth man, u'll get it when u come here for few months rolleyes.gif , to find part time work. You're talkin to the right person"
Whatever u do, don't work at asian shops and chinese restaurant. They'll rip u off, mayb pay u $10 per hour and make u WORK. The best place to work is fastfood, supermarker shops since they pay basic which is $20+ per hour + alot of benefits that follows. Job is not hard to find if you are determined, apply all the jobs online near your place. Giving out resume's to every supermarket's at your area.

For the love of your sanity and all tech support staff, please DO NOT use dodo as a ISP. Cheap, yes. Reliable? Even Streamyx is more consistent than them at times. And one can never call Dodo's network fast.

Seriously, even Telstra's plans are better than them once you read the fine print and add up all them hidden charges.

I'll be in South Street Campus too biggrin.gif. Will be there a little early to settle down. I think life in Perth, as some have already pointed out, can be boring if you don't like the outdoors.

On a side note, I just recently spoke to my relative living in Melbourne. Her negative comments were: shopping is expensive, eating out is expensive, watching movies is expensive, renting and buying a house is expensive....oh man, what a put off tongue.gif. But she said learning to dive in Perth is relatively cheap haha.

Sorry dude, I'm gonna be harsh. How old are you to be asking to be spoon-fed? Did you really think someone will answer your question?

Hey guys, which one to prefer? I've got two offers from Mel U and La Trobe U. Mainly focus in Melbourne. Major in Business for undergraduate. I heard that both are good in business. However, La trobe U tuition fee is cheaper.

I just want to know about the environment in Mel U and La Trobe U. How is the ppl around there or sort of...i got some feedback from others that la trobe students aren't that ?friendly? Is that true? o.0

I'd prefer Melbourne Uni any day ignoring the fees over La Trobe.

I presume you mean downloading at 200-300 kilobytes per second. (Not that most people know the difference) With ADSL 2+, that is below average. I routinely hit 500-600 KB/s while in quota (which is actually quite generous these days).

And I'm the far end of the exchange coverage area.

Oh you poor poor Malaysians, thinking 200-300KB/s is fast. (admittedly, it is kinda decent) Malaysia Boleh indeed.
