What sort of extra faculty courses are you talking about here? Electives or GenEds?
For electives, most if not all courses on financial market are of higher level, i.e FINS2xxx or FINS3xxx, so unless you opt to do the prerequisites first (FINS1612 and/or FINS1613), otherwise I doubt you can do any of those directly.
I'm not too sure about GenEds though.

Why on wednesday, the fees are waived even without exhibition, go to their local office which ever near by and come early to apply, make sure you have all your original certificates and let them see it and also gauge either you can make the cut for the degree you wanna enrolled in. And be early also, so that you dont have to wait long to see the counselors. All the certification and photocopy will be handled by them free of charged.

Markets rally after crisis talks

Several Asian markets opened higher after a weekend of crisis talks

Most Asian markets have reacted positively to efforts by world leaders to end the recent financial turmoil.

Shares in Australia, Hong Kong, South Korea, Singapore and India were up in morning trading but the main markets in Shanghai and Taiwan lost ground.

EU leaders earlier said no big bank would be be allowed to fail, as they agreed a plan to tackle the crisis.

Japan's stock market is closed for a public holiday and US markets will also be shut for Colombus Day.

World governments had been racing to throw financial institutions a lifeline before the major markets re-opened.

At the weekend, finance ministers from the main industrial nations - the G7 - approved a five-point plan to unfreeze credit markets, and a number of countries announced individual rescue packages.

Investors worried

Australia's Prime Minister Kevin Rudd said his government would guarantee all bank deposits, however large, for the next three years.

Peston: Banks humbled
UK banks 'forced to seek £50bn'

Correspondents say that type of move raised confidence as markets opened, and Australia's central bank on Monday pumped $2bn into the banking system to facilitate improve lending between banks.

By 0500 GMT, Sydney's benchmark index had risen 5%, while both Hong Kong's Hang Seng index and South Korea's Composite Stock Price Index were up by around 3%.

But after a volatile morning's trading, Shanghai's main market was trading 2% lower, while Taiwan's benchmark index had lost more than 3%. Japan's markets were closed for a public holiday.

The BBC's Quentin Sommerville in Beijing says Asian investors remain worried that even if Europe and the US resolve their banking crises, their underlying economies are slowing down, which is bad news for Asian exports.  .......................

It is worth pointing out that Malaysia has long guaranteed bank deposits, up to RM60,000 per depositor, per bank.

I wouldn't call 3 years "long" (through it's probably a lifetime in the high speed world of share trading), but yes, up to RM60,000, per bank, and per account apperently.

But then again, with inflation at 8%, FD rates at 3.7%, there is really no point keeping money in banks. You're better off investing it in something that has value. And not necessarily stocks either.

OH serious, sry then. Yes they can certify it, means you pay what you need to pay and they will do the rest on behalf of you after you sort out all your documents.

2.46 still ok lah, yesterday was 2.395 isn't it? It has been around 2.8, 2.9 for much of the year... and it's predictable that it'll shoot up during Dec and Jan as usual. As long as it remains around 2.5 I'll be content hehe...

I wish that my tuition fees don't increase next year, but it's probably a wishful thinking. damn.

Went to Edu fair ytd, and went to consult QUT regarding my application, that ang mo took a look at my cgpa and said that i am qualify for a merit award (if the uni stil maintain the merit system award) So this merit thing is going to give me a 50% off my 1st semester fees which isl ike almost 5000 AUD WHich is great! cheers.gif

okay so the question is , Is there such thing at UQ? because of course i prefer UQ over QUT, But QUT is giving much better option and seem to recognise my diploma more..i still have yet to heard from UQ sad.gif

so you think i shoud go for QUT or UQ huh?? I am taking accounting btw, more students from TarC seem to be going there...

any QUT students here?
