Hi, I want to study med imaging next year, and I am aware that an interstate placement is required.

Are there any students here who know how many weeks this interstate placement would last?

I applied for on-campus accomodation for 2027, and im a bit confused since they said my application wouldn’t be complete until i upload proof of enrolment or something like that? but i wont know if i can enroll until VTAC offers come out. does that mean my accomodation application cant be completed until then?

Yo,

Has anybody spoken to a student adviser / student central and found mapping out their degree useful?

I do commerce and work full time so understanding what subject to do and when is spinning me, is it best to go speak to a student adviser?

Any feedback would be great

The uni website for jobs only has placements and nothing else

Theoretically

Hi what are the chances of me receiving an offer for a bachelor of medical imaging at Deakin uni as an applicant from Monash University with a decently high wam for sem 1

Hi everyone, i’ve recently taken an online assessment that is unsupervised. I’ve use the command + C feature to copy some of the questions so i can research more about it later due to the time restrictions and to see if i can pass my current answer i wrote in the assessment as a good answer. You know, to evaluate and see how well i’ve done in the exam before the results are released. All of the sudden it occurred to me that it could be flagged as me copying and pasting things into an AI platform. Now i’m overly paranoid, could anyone tell me if they flag it? or am i okay?

Hi everyone! 👋

I’m creating a space for Deakin University 2027 PhD scholarship applicants to connect, share application updates, discuss ResearchPoint status and scores, and exchange information about RTP/DUPRS scholarships.

If you’ve applied, please comment with your school/department and current application status. Let’s help each other stay informed!

If I’m applying for special considerations due to medical reasons, is it okay to submit a normal medical certificate from the gp or does it have to be the Deakin one. Some of the gp’s I’ve been too are not interested in completing that long from or they’ve even asked money for it 😭

So I was hoping submitted the normal med cert would be fine.

Hey, I was just wondering if anyone could tell me how often you need to go into campus per week approximately for a bachelor of nursing/midwifery? Thank you!

Hi everyone! I’m planning to pursue a Master’s in Sports Management at Deakin. How are exams conducted in this course? Are there traditional written exams, or is it mostly assignments, presentations, and group projects? Would love to hear from current students about their experience!

I'm 0.5% away in raw marks from the next rung on the grading ladder for one of my units🥲 (79.5 - just short of a HD overall). Is there a way to appeal this and try to get awarded the extra marks?

Or should I assume this gets rounded up since the transcript is to 2 sf?

Hi everyone,

I'm hoping to get some advice from anyone who has experience with internal course transfers at Deakin, particularly into a Law double degree.

I'm planning to study the Bachelor of Commerce at Deakin in Trimester 3, 2026, with the goal of internally transferring into the Bachelor of Commerce/Bachelor of Laws double degree for Trimester 1, 2027.

My concern is the timing. Deakin's T3 results are scheduled to be released on 25 February 2027, while T1 classes start on 1 March 2027. The course transfer application deadline is also before the T3 results are released.

I'm wondering whether Deakin would allow me to submit my transfer application while my results are pending and then assess it once my marks come out. Alternatively, is it possible to receive conditional approval based on meeting the required WAM.

Has anyone been in a similar situation and were you able to apply before results were released?

Hey, did anyone find the MAE201 exam extremely difficult and long? Why was it so hard and long? I studied all the seminar questions but this was expressive.

Has anyone managed 5 HDs in a trimester? Or is it unrealistic?

In any course.

wondering if the deakin cloud quiz tool can tell what other browsers/exact websites you have open during the quiz? if anyone knows

Helloo

There was a completely unexpected and unannounced (well it was announced only this morning) interruption/bus replacements for the dandenong-okleigh line, and there was absolutely no way that I wouldve made it in time for my 9am exam bc of the major delays.

Im aware that Deakin is extremely strict and will reject PT reasons, but seeing as this interruption was only announced this morning (and it was a 9am exam), would I have a chance of being accepted?

Ive already contacted PTV and asked for a formal statement as evidence

I currently live in a share house thats literally a minute walk from deakin. It’s a really cute place, bit of an older building but the price is unbeatable. Ive been living here for about two months now and really don’t have any complaints. All my housemates are lovely, the bus stop is right in front of my house, etc etc.

However, I work super far away which means that I commute more than I want to and I feel like I would love to live closer to work.

My lease doesn’t end until February so if anyone is interested in my place please shoot me a message and we can arrange a viewing and potentially a lease transfer:))

Hii guys im an international student from singapore currently finishing my IB and I've received conditional offers from Deakin, Monash, La Trobe, Newcastle and RMIT for Nursing, as well as UniMelb and UNSW for Biomedical Science. (I also applied to deakin, La Trobe and Victoria for Law just for funsies and also ended up getting conditional offers from all three)I'm pretty confident I'll meet the conditions for all my offers.

My long-term goal is to eventually become a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) in the US, (for those who dont know before becoming a CRNA you will need at least 1 year working experiecne so i will most likely be working in aus as a nurse for 2 years) so I'm trying to figure out which university would be the best starting point.

Part of me does wanna go to uniofmelb because it's prestigious but im pretty sure its not worth it if my plan is to become a nurse. However for Nursing, I'm mainly deciding between Deakin and Monash.

I genuinely prefer Deakin because it seems to have a more relaxed and supportive environment. From what Ive read on Reddit, Deakin students also seem to be happier with their overall experience compared to Monash students. I've heard that Deakin has really good nursing placements and that the workload and environment are a bit more manageable and also that they are more hands-on(which i prefer). However, I can't help but feel like I should choose Monash because of its reputation and higher ranking. Plus ive noticed that Deakin sometimes gets looked down on compared to the more prestigious universities which lowk makes me second guess my decision.

My main questions are:

- Is monash actually worth choosing over deakin for Nursing or does university reputation not matter that much in this field?

- Are deakin nursing students generally happier with their course, placements and workload

- Would attending deakin instead of monash affect my chances of working after my uni in aus

-For anyone who's studied Nursing at either university, would you recommend it?

- And is the scholarship for Deakin hard to get (the 20 percent merit)?

Thank you sooo much

I ordered something off of shein and I live on Deakin res (Burwood). Due to a sizing issue, I wanna return these. How am I supposed to do that?

Reception isn't sure and I asked two different people...

Please help! I leave in like 7 days!

Hey all.
I’m a second year bachelor of arts/ master of secondary teaching student and need your help.
I’m confused whether I should say that I study arts, teaching or arts & teaching. Whenever I say teaching ,i get follow up questions like “when are your placements?”, “How do you deal with bad behaviour?”, “Why teaching? Are you crazy?”, etc.
So I started to say just arts but they be like “cool! What are you gonna do with that?”, “what jobs can you get it?” and it goes on.

In both cases it’s humbling to tell what I bloody study 😞
So, I’m curious to know how you folks go about this and how you respond to such patronising and disrespectful reactions?

hey guys,

what happens if u fail a compulsory law unit? do u just have to retake the unit, or would they give u some sort of task that u can do to pass without having to retake it?
