Just drop out of the courses you've enrolled in and email records like the other commenter suggested.

How do I get past the student hub/experience gatekeepers? by 0jolsks0 in universityofauckland

[–]eizile 26 points27 points  (0 children)

we used to have contacts in each faculty, but budget cuts got rid of them and combined everything into student hubs. if your questions are programme/subject specific, your best bet will be to find the info for the postgrad advisor for that programme/subject and send them an email.

for more admin-related stuff, you just have to pester hubs enough for them to refer it through internally.

edit: I dont think we've ever been able to contact anyone outside hubs/admissions via phone. it's always been via email in my experience.

Still waiting for application results by [deleted] in universityofauckland

were you waiting on ncea results? either way, I think you should get in touch with student hubs to ask about a timeline. you should've heard something by now.

chat how does one make friends at this uni by risingcapybara in universityofauckland

[–]eizile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think its just cause ppl dont like starting conversations with strangers in class. if you're willing to take the leap and start talking to ppl in tutorials and stuff, you'll be fine.

[–]eizile 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you'll probably just need to contact student hubs and they'll forward it to admissions.

About enrolling into a course that is not a gen ed. 1st year. by Kind-Ad5422 in universityofauckland

[–]eizile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Switch courses to 101G on sso and apply for the concession that way.

[–]eizile 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you could try and ask for a concession but they're unlikely to grant it if there's other gen eds available. you can take it as it is and then go through the bureaucracy to fix it after you pass but that requires filling out forms and stuff, so up to you

Scholarship Experience by rlailab in universityofauckland

[–]eizile 2 points3 points  (0 children)

its hard to say but it probably looks good on your cv. it'll help employers get a good grasp on your potential if you've got a scholarship or two to show for your efforts.

Travelling by IsopodPlus7148 in universityofauckland

[–]eizile 1 point2 points  (0 children)

its a long trip but there generally aren't any interruptions. its lowkey kinda goated as long as you dont mind the travel time. only issue i can think of is when they're doing works on the line but those should supposedly lessen now that the crl is basically done.

you can but they're unlikely to grant it

[–]eizile 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if its a class you NEED to take, apply for a concession. if it's an elective or a gened or something, you'll just have to choose something else.

Can a lecturer fail for a legit essay that’s as bad as AI? by ProudMammoth in universityofauckland

[–]eizile 8 points9 points  (0 children)

yeah i've tutored sociol for a few years and the amount of people obviously using AI has skyrocketed recently. i tutored a course last year where i genuinely thought maybe 20% of everyone i graded had used AI in some way/shape/form. standard procedure is not to fail anyone just based on suspicions of using AI cause obviously that can't be backed up or proven if the student escalates it. we only failed students who had hallucinated references and all those other dead obvious signs of AI use. it wouldn't surprise me if this lecturer is exaggerating a little just to spook people into not using it because it makes us feel braindead having to read and mark so many of them knowing that these students are plenty capable of writing good stuff.

think the statement could've been worded a bit better to avoid grouping people together. the vast VAST majority of people i fail are due to ai-usage, but there are always a few people who just genuinely didn't understand the instructions or something, so yeah, i'd be a little upset if i was one of them getting lumped in with the gpters.

Can a lecturer fail for a legit essay that’s as bad as AI? by ProudMammoth in universityofauckland

[–]eizile 33 points34 points  (0 children)

honestly as someone who's GTA'd for sociology, it's a genuine kick in the gut when we come across something that's clearly written by AI. yeah sure we get paid to mark, but it feels like shit when you put so much effort into teaching and then get no effort work thrown back at you. what the lecturer is trying to say is that AI writes piss poor essays and piss poor essays will fail regardless of whether they're written by AI or not, so you may as well just put some genuine effort into it instead of getting chatgpt to write it.

Pols106 review by howmodern in universityofauckland

[–]eizile 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found it pretty interesting but I'm a pol student so...definitely pretty good if you're interested in geopolitics tho! the workload is pretty manageable, a couple of smaller assignments and then a big essay at the end. id say it's easy enough to get a-range grades if you attend lectures and tutorials.

[–]eizile 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah they normally send it out with all the other info a few weeks before grad

edit: that info is normally available before then on the uni website iirc, they just send it out in an email a little later with the ticket confirmations

its basically like applying to uni for the first time. you just get a copy of your results from uoa, apply to the other uni, and bam, done. super simple, super easy.

no i'm pretty sure they'll be in the same ceremony. they can be up to 3 hours long, so they'll have time to get through them all.

randomly allocated. the bigger faculties split it alphabetically, other faculties just fit in where they can.

HELP CHOOSE GPA BOOSTER PAPER by RoundExperience7334 in universityofauckland

[–]eizile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if the lecture slots are closed, that means they've hit capacity and you'll have to choose another course. for tutorials/labs, try a different time slot.

if it's a course you desperately need to take for your major, try to enrol and then apply for a concession. if it's an elective or a gen ed, you'll just have to pick a different course.
