That's what I'd do unless you live super close - or watch the livestreams if that's an option so you're less likely to procrastinate it

Thanks! Yeah I don’t live very close so it would be too much of an inconvenience to show up for only one hour on Wednesdays. Watching the streams is also an option, thanks again.

It's a bit hidden, but here's some screenies.

First load up my.monash and then click the search button:


Then search up "news", news and feeds should show up, click it:


Then go for calendar feeds:


It should take you to this page which will have your timetable link for you to import into google calendar! :)


Hope this helps! :)

Thanks so much. I kinda tinkered around looking for it.
Came across this link

and did search news but I didn't scroll down enough to get to the news feed.

There's none specifically for the Monash Google account, but there is a whole bunch of policies regarding computer and internet use, which you can find here.
In saying that, use the Monash Google account and various other accounts responsibly (and, preferably, professionally).

Hey guys,

Im graduating next year but I'm already considering uni options right now... yikes!

My question is if I get a high ATAR and want to get into a course that has prerequisites that I don't study... will you still accept me?

For example, the course I want to get into is bachelor of commerce, which requires a prerequisite of 25 SS in methods. Only problem is I'm not doing methods but if I get a high ATAR will you still accept me?

Thanks in advance :)

prerequisites are probably the most inflexible of things out of the entry requirements so it is very unlikely that you will be offered a place in  a course that you don't fulfil prerequisites in - the only way to get in is that you would have to do some sort of bridging course that covers methods and have it accepted/verified by Monash. On the other hand, you can usually get in with ATARs lower than the stated required.

if I get accepted into the Monash extension program studying accounting and finance, I'll get credit for bachelor of commerce... will those credits be enough for me to get into the course without having studied methods?

No I don't think so. As someone who completed MUEP in 2016 it doesn't give you priority in obtaining a position in a course or able to bypass prerequisites although you can allow it to count to your course.

If you're specifically after a BComm at Monash, then I'd recommend:
(1) going to another uni which doesn't have a Methods prereq
(2) take the Methods bridging course, as Sine mentioned
(3) you could study a BBusiness at Monash (assuming you 25+ raw SS Further instead) and use your electives to cover the methods prereq*.

If you use the first or third route and you achieve good uni grades (usually 70+ WAM, but sometimes 75+ WAM due to competition), you might be able to transfer into the BComm at Monash after a semester or two.

*Not entirely sure this third way works, despite hearing that it might, so call Monash Connect directly about this to be 100% certain.

Hi, how necessary is Top Hat, especially since it's $11 a semester?

Could you provide more context? Not exactly sure what you're after.

I think it's sort of like an app that allows you to interact with the lecture, such as giving answers to a question on the pp. I'm just wondering if it's ever been used for say quizzes that go towards your assessment or anything similar that would impact my wam.

Ah, sorry about that. They had the MARS system and physical clickers before this (Top Hat is newer), hence why I'm unfamiliar with it. I assume it'd work similarly though. If you have in-lecture assessment in the form of clicker-style questions, it'd most likely be done through Top Hat now. I'd recommend using the Monash Subject Reviews, your handbook entries or unit guides (if available) to assess whether you will have any in-lecture clicker-style questions. Seeing as the uni is asking you to use it, my guess is that they'll tell you in the first lecture if that purchase is necessary and, if it's needed, but actually free (since they cover the cost), then they'll probably give some form of access code to bypass the cost. If it's needed, but the uni doesn't cover the cost, then you'd know through the first lecture and can pay as necessary. Another way to know prior to the first lecture would be to ask via Moodle, if it's available already.
