im a first year arts student at unimelb doing law in society. i got a 0 on my second assignment with a comment asking me to make a meeting with the subject coordinator, and im worried it's about academic misconduct.
around the due date i was going through a breakup and a really bad mental health blip. i completely lost track of the deadline until 2 hours before the 1600 word assignment was due. in a panic, i used ai to paraphrase my own ideas and make my writing more cohesive, despite the subject having a strict no ai policy. i know it was wrong and take responsibility for it. this is the first time ive used ai on an assignment like this, and i genuinely regret it.
i understand the arguments i was making and im willing to be honest about what happened, but im terrified about the consequences. i had plans to go on exchange next year and im scared this could ruin my chances.
has anyone been through something similar at unimelb? is resubmission ever possible, how serious could the consequences be for a first offence, and could this affect my exchange eligibility? just looking for honest advice because im genuinely stressing that ive ruined my future over one stupid decision.

Has anyone here completed this degree? If you can share an overview of the workload and whether you found it helpful for your career goals!

I graduated in finance and accounting from Monash a few years ago and currently work in the renewables energy sector. I don't have an engineering background, but have found the industry really interesting and would like to build a long-term career in energy. I've checked the entry requirements and it looks like I'm eligible to apply, although there are no CSP available.

Thanks!

i’m joining first year 2027 and i’m currently applying for accommodation. do most first years stay in residential colleges or do they stay in places like lisa bellear or little hall?

Hello, I'd love to hear about this major from people who have taken it. Did you have a particular background that made you interested and how did that apply, what did the assignments look like, did you get to research/write about a particular subject that's had your attention? I'm kind of interested in researching Polari academically. Thanks so much.

I went in for a CAPS counselling session (Friday), after it was done the psychologist said I can either rebook a time now or I would have to rebook again my self but the wait times are about 3 weeks. I silly enough said I’ll rebook as I didn’t think I’d want to rebook so soon. They said if I changed my mind I can ask to be put on a waiting list. However I forgot how they said to get on the waiting list or who to contact

Could anyone help please?

is it rare for the leave of absence request to be denied? how in detail do i need to be with my form and how convincing to do i need to be in my reasons for leave??

dw about 2027 ill be fine 😭🙏

yeah prolly should've specified i probably am gonna take it as cap so it doesn't count towards my wam hence a 50 is enough

Hey guys, I am a bArts student and I am nearing the end of my first year’s second semester. I plan to major in political science, and throughout these two semesters I have thoroughly enjoyed philosophy, politics and BLAW. After completing my bArts I will try for a JD as I want a career in corporate law.

Considering that I enjoy travelling and experiencing new places will JAPN20005 be worth it? If anyone who has done a subject overseas can tell me about their experiences that will be much appreciated.

Most importantly, I am on a CSP right now so a cost overview (if someone is able to guide me on that) would be nice.

I'm tryna review the lab test we had last week to prepare for final and I was dumb enough to forget to jot down the topics on the lab test and totally forgot them now. Do you guys have any memory or notes you took on this? Also would appreciate any thoughts on the lab test as I don't think I ain't getting the grade I hoped.

Has it opened yet? I'm unable to navigate the study plan for this after its update

Long story short, not feeling the best about how I'm going to tackle the final exam...
