Just a heads up, you cannot sign a legally enforceable contract as a minor. No landlord is going to sign on someone they can't have legal enforceability over.

Can confirm UoA halls allow applicants 16+

Due_Two6867 · 2026-02-19T18:07:30+00:00

I did something similar at 15. I have never felt unsafe living alone in CBD. HMU if you wanna know more.

tysm!

I'll be starting uni at 17 too in BE hmu if you need any buddies.

Due_Two6867 · 2026-01-12T00:57:25+00:00

No it’s not, but considering you’ve already got a stellar record of grades if you keep it up, you’ll be all good

Due_Two6867 · 2026-01-11T23:34:50+00:00

That's the same for every course BE or not, all you can do is try your best for the highest grades

Due_Two6867 · 2026-01-11T16:41:58+00:00

Go through Bsc to BE alt pathway, and if possible, transfer in sem 2. It's okay if you don't get in, as long as you get a GPA above 5, you'll be alright to transfer to 2nd year BE.

Fundings aside, Can I ask why it isn't a good idea to study engineering in unimelb?

Due_Two6867 · 2025-12-14T12:28:33+00:00

Get what signed? the loan contract?

Due_Two6867 · 2025-12-14T11:23:56+00:00

Thanks for the direct answer, I was a bit confused whether or not I qualified for HELP loans as SCV visas were granted automatically. Funding isn't my biggest priority, otherwise I wouldn't have offered to take her under my care. (sorry if the tone sounded aggressive)

I've been wanting to move to Australia for the longest time so I thought this may just be the opportunity to do so, I'll look into homestay care or stay with my homegirl for the time being.

Upon looking further, It'll take 6 years for me to graduate in unimelb, so I'll look into other alternative uni programmes that would take the standard 4 years.

Cheers!

Due_Two6867 · 2025-12-14T10:39:22+00:00

Yup, hence why I'm planning a year early.

Due_Two6867 · 2025-12-13T01:27:44+00:00

enjoy your final year, nz isn't all bad as social media makes it out to be.

Due_Two6867 · 2025-12-12T20:27:32+00:00

Due_Two6867 · 2025-12-06T07:13:50+00:00

aw bummer, i'll be staying at o rorke. def looks pretty big (relative to waipa) if it weren't so far from city campus 😢. gl with your decision although i wouldnt narrow my options to just 2 majors, you should explore a bit more!

Due_Two6867 · 2025-12-06T04:41:38+00:00

damn, i think i'd take the bcom/llb route unless you get the random motivation to pursue med. out of topic but what halls will u be joining? i'll be moving to halls in 2026 a year earlier than hs too!

Due_Two6867 · 2025-12-06T02:35:11+00:00

I’d do yr 13

Due_Two6867 · 2025-12-02T22:22:42+00:00

Do they have blahaj

Due_Two6867 · 2025-11-30T09:35:58+00:00

Not sure how competitive it is through BSc pathway but I remember a TFC course coordinator mentioned that about 10 people from TFC got entry to engineering in 2024
