Cottages in Wagga are pretty good. Half are oldish (but not delapidated or anything). Half are newish. About 5 or 6 were only built in the last 6 months :)
They aren't in the middle of nowhere either - All the cottages are on one side of the road and walking distance to everything. Theres 8...
Yeah I'm in cottages this year. I got 30 weeks again which is a bit of a pain (which most people don't realise until they have to start moving their crap out every holidays).
I know you're kidding but I wouldn't even think about fireworks - security would be onto you in no time simply for the...
Proddies (i.e. TV Production) - an interesting collection of folk. Generally fairly fruity but they seem harmless enough. Not sure of exact numbers but I'm pretty sure it'd be more around the 50-100 mark rather than 200. And all very friendly :)
Sydneyites - There's a fair few of them around...
O-Week was awesome! And from what I gather, much the same as any other uni's. During the day theres stuff on to help you work out where things are around the uni (tours, meetings with other ppl. from your course, getting your enrolment sorted, self defence, the occasional waterfight and bbq) and...
Send in your acceptance and whatever other forms you have. Your logon details are sent to you and then you can apply for accommodation. Once the final ballot for accomodation has been done you can check if you were accepted into accomodation, at which point there will be a room fee listing and a...
You don't get allocated a car space but there are 2 reasonably sized carparks running up each side of the cottages area that everyone in cottages and St. Martins shares. You can usually get a space pretty easily but if you get stuck (doesn't happen all that often) you can always go and park in...
Seriously, South isn't that bad. It's as clean as anywhere on main, the rooms are like 2 1/2 times the size of any of those on main, you can walk to and from town which makes things easier when everyone is trying to get a cab or the courtesy bus home, and you don't have to fight with anyone else...
Crazybrad is right - Orange is still teething. They still do their actual pharmacy classes via video-conferencing from Wagga. Other subjects (chem, microbiology, etc.) are studied internally though.
The rooms on South are roughly twice the size of those on main and have double the storage space. The setup is a bit different from cottages though cause its more dorm-style (something like 30 people per block) as opposed to the 8 people in cottages. It's also a 10 minute drive from the uni but...
I didn't find out last year till like 4 or 5 days before results came out. Brads right - they do it this way so that you won't give up midway through exams.
If you're really worried about it (as I was yesterday) call the 1300 number in that booklet that has the accomodation info in it and they can give it to you over the phone. However if you get someone who tells you that they cant give it to you over the phone, hang up and call again.
I spent...
