Hmm...The subject change every semester ? My friend said that to me but I don't really know about it ... Which school were you in ? Hmm...Most of the schools there are big right ? =P

well yeah, you get to choose different units each semester, It depends on you

eg: woodwork for first semester, metalwork next semester & etc ...

for me, I was doing the same units whole year tongue.gif

I was in LSHS, at Parkwood. My school was alright, I can't say it's huge though biggrin.gif

for example,

Fees charged at my college:

International Student:
$14,840
P.R. / Citizen:
$9360

I'm not sure about the fees charged at universities.

My commencement date on 9 February 2009 and I'm planning to apply my student visa In November  ( first week of November ) and arrive in Sydney on 31 December 2008.  Should I inform the immigration and am I allow to enter Australia upon my visa granted ? Is there any start date and end date like visa validity ? Please help...

Other members should be able to advice you on that, I'm not sure about that. Sorry. notworthy.gif

There will be an expiry date stated on the visa once granted.

which college is that? it seems tuition fees are increasing every year. sigh. did you apply for PR, or are you paying international rate?
but i understand once i apply for PR, they will consider me as a ''local'', so i'm competing with aussies to gain admission, not internationals. would that lower my chances?

Curtin International College, Perth

I just obtained my P.R. last Friday, agrh the day before I paid my international school fees ... doh.gif

where are you going to start from? foundation year?

i'm pretty sure you can claim back the portion of fees you pay. dont know if they do it in Curtin but in UQ i'm pretty sure they allow you to get back a portion of the tuition fees you paid
I asked if I am entitled for a refund the day after, but they say no. sweat.gif

Just to check ... Australia's internet is more stable than Streamyx in Malaysia ? Like won't have disturbance or disconnection from time to time ?

yea, but don't sign up with dodgy ISP. I never had any disconnection since Day 1 connecting.

What do you mean dodgy connection ? Which provider are you using ? Optus and ''3'' ... Which one is cheaper in telephoning and internet .

Optus got iPhone plan xD
*
one of the ISPs will be DODO, cheap but it sucks, dodgy Customer Service / Call Center too ...

I'm with Internode, since most of the members at Whirlpool use it tongue.gif

I don't know much about mobile plans, I'm on Optus Everynow & Then prepaid plan, $30 : 6 months.
