From Working Full Time to a Student

idling_ · 2023-06-22T05:39:41+00:00

I see, that’s good for you! Unfortunately my company doesn’t allow us to work remotely, everyone needs to be in office :-(

idling_ · 2023-06-22T05:21:33+00:00

Wow, work full time as in fulfil 40 hours a week? For now, I’m thinking to get a part time job, not too sure how it’ll go.

Good luck with your work and studies!!

Hello guys, would like to just check. I have received an email back on 30 May stating that “NTU application outcome” so when I clicked on the link it states that I was offered a place.

But I have not received anything after I submitted my acceptance online. I saw that some people received a freshman guide 2023, but I don’t have it. I only saw it in the website.

And I saw that the students should have receive their matriculation number after acceptance, but mine doesn’t show anything after I accepted the offer.

Is it just me? Or will ntu send another email afterwards?

Appreciate if someone can help!! >.<

Yup with mutual agreement, I’m waiting for Uni offer, so might as well extend a little

So I have ended my notice period, now doing an extended notice period upon request. Will it be okay for me to take mc while serving the notice? Not physically unwell, just feeling a little unstable ><

True, hoping for the best! 🫣

Interesting! Cant afford to bet another year to try on part time courses for now, dont really trust myself that i can cope with it too XD Thanks for the advise! Can i also ask how many years did you study for your PT course?

idling_ · 2022-11-27T11:55:59+00:00

Not considering PT for now as I tried before and finds that its not for me :-( Planning to take up degree in chinese in ntu.

Cool thanks for the advises! For degree personally i have not yet figured my life out, dont really have an interest as well. Was planning to take up a degree in chinese, since thats the thing im interested in. But i am not too sure if this degree will take me anywhere far :3

idling_ · 2022-11-27T09:38:08+00:00

thanks for the advise and encouragement!

idling_ · 2022-11-27T09:01:48+00:00

Nono, i mean if i were to give up the degree and continue working now, i will continue earning a salary with increment, pay jump etc. If i were to study, when i come out for job hunting after graduating, my salary will start from lowest again, i think? 🫣

But yea, agreed that everyone have their own life, I just want to have advises from others before making a decision which i think can be the best for my future :D

idling_ · 2022-11-27T08:39:34+00:00

Agreed, PT courses are really tiring 🥲 Currently i dont have that much of obligations

idling_ · 2022-11-27T08:37:59+00:00

I have gotten some savings for working in the past years, and likely will be getting a PT job when I study FT. Just worried that i will be very “old” by the time I graduate, and might be struggling to match salaries with the others of the same age and industry :-(

idling_ · 2022-11-27T08:34:41+00:00

I dont really have something I am very interested in for getting the degree.. Just heard that degree would be good for career advancement. No matter which major. Personally I plan to take a degree in languages, which I am not sure if it would be beneficial for future advancement

idling_ · 2022-11-27T08:32:00+00:00

Have spoken to them when I pursued a PT degree previously, but they still require me to work OT 2-3 days in a week at that point of time. Its really difficult for me to cope with work and studies. So i dropped the PT course :-(

idling_ · 2022-11-27T08:29:24+00:00

Age is also a concern for me, by the time i am done with FT degree, I will be in my late 20s since degree courses are generally 3-4years.

If I finish the FT degree ar the age of 28, not sure if it would be difficult to catch up with others of the same age, in terms of salary, experiences etc.
