Hi there. I want to ask a few question for UQ student here. Im thinking of going to UQ to study Economics degree in UQ in 2010. Is the teachings there good and is 300 to 400k enough for whole 3 years study there? Including working during holidays. Thanks in advance..

i just check with bank customer support.

if a bank atm card with PLUS or cirrus sign/logo behind it , it is eligble to withdraw money from oversea atm, which also have the PLUS/Cirrus logo.

PLUS / Cirrus = Visa / Master, if we can withdrwa money with credit card in oversea atm, so do the bank atm card.

FYI, malaysian local bank like public, cimb ,alliance, doesn't support this kind of service except maybank. Alternatively, try UOB, HSCB/ Citibank , foreign bank had more branches overseas

kayexh : have you checked the charges?

well; beware of the charges.this days bank aint that nice anymore.

ya, according to maybank, it will be RM 15 / transaction.

withdrawals via international plus/cirrus is limited to the atm's limit, so is useful for emergencies only, and there is a significant charge.......use it as a back up.....

you are advised to nevertheless keep a buffer of funds, and transfer large amounts (like your fees) via drafts.........

*raises hand*

Define your definition of "good". Again, what is it that you want to do in IT? No one can help you if you don't provide any information.

QUT's Faculty of Information Technology is currently undergoing some restructuring. There will be changes, and you will probably be in a different course structure to me when you enter in 2009.

hey. im new here.
do i have to take pre-uni in msia then only can go for my diploma studies in aus?

nope; you can go straight after spm.

by doing diploma in AU what advantages can i get if i choose i will not do Bachelors degree? can i get the same job after completing diploma that a graduate will get from bachelors degree in AU or NZ or Canada? if not whAats the difference?

TT for my bank was 1%(0.5% at both side) of total amount of transfers. Using St. George now, soon to be merge with Westpac.

2010? man my base fees will rise also. my engineering now is $20600 per year, next year will be $23000, more than 10% increases for new students next batch. You might want to consider honours for Economics(extra 1 year after your 3 years degrees) in your budget.

where? in aussie or malaysia? 1st can you get a PR if you want to work full-time in australia by using your diploma?
What job you want will depend upon the job requirements, some job need bachelor some need diploma.

I dont think thats a good idea because when you get money from your parents in Malaysia,you will be getting about 10-15k AUD.Dont think you'll be carrying around that much money.Fees for each semester will cost you 8 to 10k.

Besides,if you are in UNSW,they wont accept cash for the fees payment.

It would be great for emergency use.

most diplomas take you 2 years to complete.
when you are free after school time n trying to find extra job you can get one. as long it benefits you and related to your studies.The job depends on your skills when you are in job finding after graduate.
in australia; its about experience & good better grades n how you bring yourself up.Its not just grades or CGPA like what you get in Msia
Im here to reply about in Australia; others; ask the other thread.
