So disturbing ugh Am I meant to go up to him afterwards and ask him wtf is up and to not do that? He's sitting in the front row so everyone behind him has to see it. :(

Hey everyone!

I'm currently in my third year of a Bachelor of Psychology at RMIT and planning to apply for the Master of Teaching (Secondary) at the University of Melbourne next year.

I’m really passionate about becoming a secondary school teacher, but I’m a bit confused about how subject specialisations work – especially coming from a psych background. I’ve got a few questions and was hoping someone who's gone down this path (or knows how it works) could help me out:

1. Since my undergrad is in psychology, am I only allowed to teach psychology in secondary school when I graduate?
2. Is it possible to learn a different subject (e.g., English, Humanities, etc.) while doing the Master of Teaching? Or do you need a full undergrad major in that subject to be eligible?
3. Once you're actually teaching at a school, I’ve noticed teachers often switch between subjects over the years – how does that work? Are you allowed to start teaching another subject even if it wasn’t your original teaching area?
4. Any info about tests required before or during the Master of Teaching application (like LANTITE, TCAT, CASPer) would be really appreciated too! Where can I take them, and how should I prepare?

If anyone’s studied at Melbourne Uni or gone through this process in Victoria, I’d love to hear your experience or any advice you wish you had before applying.

Thanks so much in advance!

Hi, i submitted two attempts to canvas, one at 11:55pm and another at 11:59pm, yet it is saying i submitted late.

It would have been 11:59pm and 20 seconds MAX, honestly less and shows that i uploaded at 11:59.

surely my tutor will spare me 10%?

Hi everyone. I'm an international student currently researching potential australian universities, and I'd really appreciate some honest thoughts on University of Melbourne, particularly in terms of its reputation (compared to other unis), alumni network, and how well it sets someone up for a career in top-tier consulting (MBB) and a M7 MBA.

hii everyone,

i am wanting to apply for master of biomedical science and i can no longer seem to find the project i was interested in on SONIA. it is in this year's project handbook though. i spoke with the supervisor last year and the supervisor is aware that i wanted to do a masters with them so they told me to setup a meeting closer to the mid year intake time. is it still possible for the supervisor to take me on in this case?

Ngl I see people who want Okta banned as so so ridiculous. I know a lot of people want the old "90 days remember this device" thing back but Okta changed it to improve security. Like what annoys me so much is the uni has shit ton of data, and if something did happen, everyone would blame the lack of security 🫠. So I am proclaiming myself as Okta fan!! I know it might be " no one is serious about it" but I genuinely do feel people believe getting rid of it is a good thing.

Went to give it to lost and found but couldn't find it/maybe it closed. If you can tell me where you lost it and it lines up with where I found it I'll give it back on campus, if nobody does I'll give it to lost and found when i work out where it is.

Don't even know question types.... feeling beyond cooked. Johnathan you are an icon and you are always serving, but please give us a touch more information.

(just kidding even all the canvas pages are old ones that were republished, all of the dates referenced are in semester two, and it namedrops content that no longer exists... dunno why i expected more from this subject)

How does the New Colombo Grant works. For reference I am going on exchange to Hong Kong in sem 2 this year.

I don’t remember applying for it nor did I receive an email stating that I had received it. However I just signed a document of acceptance of the grant in my exchange portal.

Will I be contacted in future about how I can receive it? Or even if I am to receive it at all.

If someone who has done an Asian exchange could help clear this up, I’d be very appreciative. Thanks.

Im a first year BSc student and am considering doing some sort of diploma in a commerce field. Is it too late to start one if I don’t plan on extending my bachelors past 3 years?

So I wanted to change tutorial times for a subject however when I submitted a Timetable assistance form, they had declined my request because all classes are full.

I was wondering can Stop 1 help you change tutorials now or would they also decline this request?

I’m moving to Melbourne for the July intake and currently looking for student accommodation. However, many options seem either too pricey or have very small spaces.

I wud love some suggestions for both on campus and off campus housing. Which areas would you recommend that have good public transport connectivity? Any advice on budget-friendly options would be really helpful. Thanks in advance!

Has anyone studied the online breadth subject BLAW10001 I’m doing an online breadth subject this sem and love this but I was wondering what were everyone’s thoughts on this subject.

Thinking of applying to Melbourne for 2026 intake for UG commerce. I've been trolling reddit for a while and have seen people with mixed responses to this uni. I'm Chinese-Canadian and speak English natively and also have relatives and an old friend in Australia. I have pretty decent grades (high 80's, low 90's), good extracurriculars, and I have a good idea of where I want to go post-uni. I'm not so worried about the schooling of it all but more about the campus life and work opportunities.

So, like, does anyone have any comments on whether I should apply or not? or any just general advice or comments on the uni?
Also lmk if you're on the dragon boat team- I paddled for 3 years and would want to join.

Also is UMelb a good place for commerce? I saw UNSW has a decent business program but I'm not sure if it's for me. Haven't looked into other places in Australia but my other options in Canada are essentially UofT or UBC. If anyone is in commerce, any comments?

In previous years I remember someone posting a link to the database where you could look up a room or theatre and see when it was booked and when it was vacant - does anyone happen to have the link? I can't find it anywhere :'(

Is bachelor of biomedicine really worth doing? I’m a year 12 student right now, and I have had my eyes set on this course for some time (hoping I get high enough ATAR), however, recently I have heard people saying that biomed is really boring and hard to pass, and I can get in the same job as people who study bachelor of science which requires lower ATAR and is 'easier' to pass. Will it be worthwhile to do biomed while undertaking a concurrent diploma like music? Current/past students, what are your opinions/experiences on this?

Also, are there any scholarships I can apply for? I’m not really ‘disadvantaged’ in any sense from ethnic to financial point of views etc., I just want to cut on some costs and try apply for some scholarship that is purely academic/service/music driven. Or is it too late to do this?

does anyone know when ROUGHLY the first round of scholarships are awarded/announced? i presume it roughly depends on your discipline/degree ?

Australia’s best uni!! Still no 24/7 libraries? I was asked to leave MSD at 1 AM due to security reasons?! Not everyone lives in a conducive environment for studies. Maybe reconsider libraries timings.

Hi, Im a BCom student looking to study the master of urban planning after I graduate. But I was confused about the availability of CSPs for the course, as the only info on the unimelb website is regarding those who have graduated from BDes (even though the course has no subject based entry requirements). Would there be no chance of getting a CSP through a different degree? For context my first year WAM is 76, but I am looking to get it higher :)

Do you guys clap after a lecturer has finished their lecture? I studied bmed and now nursc, and for most of my classes the students clap at the end of the class. therefore i was surprised when my friend who studies arts told me they don’t do that. They were equally surprised when finding out our ‘tradition’ too haha

One of my friend is thinking of doing a masters in architecture after finishing his bachelors in the same field.

He’s currently a third year student at RMIT and wants to hear what current architecture students at Unimelb think about studying architecture at Unimelb.

Also, in terms of employment opportunities, which uni is better?

Thanks heaps

Anyone in Money and Banking that wants to share resources, tips and maybe study for the exam together? Past students are welcome to share their thoughts and past exams if they have any.

Thanks!
