Acknowledgement of Country

The offices of the Students’ Representative Council and the University within which it resides sit on sovereign Gadigal land. This land was never ceded, and the University exists as a colonial force that has occupied this Indigenous land since its inception. We pay our respects to elders past and present, and stand in solidarity with First Nations people demanding equity and justice. As students at USyd, we study and work in an environment that is inextricably linked to the ongoing oppression and colonisation of Indigenous people. This University, like many comparable institutions across Australia, stems from early colonisation and remains systematically inaccesible to First Nations people. The fight for Indigenous justice is one that extends to all aspects of our society, and advocating for change within our own University is action that needs to take place. We take the side of First Nations members of our community in their fight for sovereignty, self-determination and justice. This land was, is, and always will be Aboriginal land.

Editorial

Hello and welcome to university! We are your 2024 General Secretaries, and the responibility falls to us to create this glorious handbook. The so-called real guide to univeristy, these hallowed pages include all the information one could possibly need to ensure a succesful university experience. A number of students have contributed their perspectives on studying, with a helpful summary provided for each relevant faculty. Additionally, SRC staff members have outlined the services available from the SRC - services which we encourage all students to take full advantage of when needed. Our handbook duties aside, our role as General Secretaries is a varied one and is essential to the functioning of the SRC. We draw up the SRC’s budget every year, negotiate the level of Student Services and Amenities Fee (SSAF) funding the SRC receives and ensure that the Council and its Office-Bearers are well supported as they carry out their important work. We hope that you take the time to get involved with the SRC and its collectives. Our monthly meetings are open for all to attend and we warmly invite you to witness the veritable spectacle that is this bastion of robust student democracy. In solidarity, Daniel O’Shea and Jacklyn Scanlan

What is the SRC?

Jacklyn Scanlan

The University of Sydney Students’ Representative Council (SRC or USyd SRC) is the peak representative body for undergraduate students at the University of Sydney and has been run by students since 1929. We are about activism, advocacy, and representation for all undergraduate students and offer both services for students but also we fight for free, fair and funded education, universal student unionism and a society free of discrimination and oppression. We are entirely student-funded, drawing our resources from the SSAF that you pay every semester. Using this money we provide a number of important services to students and finance activism led by our Collectives. These services include: Caseworkers The caseworkers are a free, confidential and independent service to help students with academic rights and appeals, special considerations and arrangements, Centrelink, financial hardship, tenancy and other areas which are elaborated on throughout this handbook. Legal Services SRC solicitors provide undergraduate students at the University of Sydney with FREE legal advice, representation in court where relevant and a referral service. Honi Soit Honi Soit is the only weekly student newspaper. It can be found in-print across campus or online at honisoit.com. Any student can write for Honi Soit and it is an amazing source of news, gossip, opinion pieces and art. It is a staple of campus culture. 2

President’s Welcome Welcome (or welcome back) to the University of Sydney. My name is Harrison Brennan and I’m 96th President of the Students’ Representative Council. The SRC is the peak representative body for undergraduate students at the university. We are independent from USyd but we rely on your Student Services and Amenities Fee (SSAF) to operate. We offer a range of free services you may use throughout your academic journey that can assist with anything from USyd’s bureaucratic systems, such as special considerations, centrelink applications, tenancy and accommodation problems, and can help with varying legal matters including encounters with dodgy police or issues with immigration and employment. Beyond our casework and legal services lies the very soul of the SRC - its activism and advocacy. As a student union, we are committed to championing the interests of students, agitating for a better education here at USyd and a just world off our campus. Our rich history of activism includes fervent opposition to the Vietnam War, facilitating campaigns for First Nations justice, and our militant response to the corporatising decay of higher education under neoliberal governments and private sector interests. The SRC runs a myriad of activist collectives focused on a variety of political campaigns who hold meetings, forums, and rallies throughout the year. These collectives, both autonomous and non-autonomous, are the best way for students to get involved in activism whilst at university. I am heavily involved in these collectives, and as the President, also sit on multiple committees to raise problems students are facing in their studies. The challenges we face today are manifold. Our higher education is treated as though a commodity with many courses facing extensive cuts from management, despite USyd producing record profits. Staff are precariously employed, many on fixed-term casual contracts, with no guarantee of reemployment and pay that fails to keep pace with inflation. Nationwide students are grappling with the outcome of decades of neoliberal policies - soaring rents, price-gouging supermarkets, and welfare payments below the poverty line. Despite the gravity of this cost-of-living crisis, our government remains either indifferent or hostile to implementing any solutions. Despite bordering on ecological collapse, the fossil fuel industry continues to be upheld by the federal government and our own university, which holds over 300 shares in Australia’s top climate vandalists. Sexual assault and harrassment are rife on campus, particularly in USyd’s church-run colleges, with management refusing to take responsibility for the crimes occuring within their halls. Worse yet, the university gags survivors who come forward with complaints. After the failed Voice referendum last year, we still have yet to see any commitment towards First Nations justice from state and federal governments whilst black deaths in custody continue to rise, and the desecration of Indigenous land steamrolls ahead with Labor-party approval. And right now the world is witness to the ongoing genocide and apartheid against the Palestinian people by the state of Israel, colonial acts sanctioned by our own government. The SRC is a bastion of activism and resistance. Now more than ever it’s imperative that students unite against the structures of oppression to pave the way for an education untainted by commercial interest, and a future that is just and emancipatory. In 2024, I implore you to check out our collectives, to immerse yourself in activism, to join the struggle and fight for the world that you want to see. In Solidarity, Harrison Brennan.

Collectives Autonomous Collective Against Racism

The Autonomous Collective Against Racism (ACAR) is engaged in anti-racist activism on campus and beyond. It is open to those who identify as black, indigenous or a ‘person of colour’ (BIPOC) or an ethnic background that is marked by white supremacy. In 2024, the collective will continue to organise around First Nations’ justice, Palestinian solidarity and more! Alongside activism, ACAR engages in political education through regular reading groups and movie screenings and puts on social events for mutual aid funding. We have regular meetings and events so come along and get involved!

First Nations Collective

The Sydney University Education Action Group (EAG) is an activist collective dedicated to fighting for free, quality education. We campaign around a range of issues, from opposing course cuts and supporting staff strikes, to wider social justice issues. In 2022 and 2023, we were involved in a solidarity campaign with the staff union (NTEU) for better pay and conditions, and mobilised student contingents to attend staff strikes. Our current focus is continuing last year’s fight for ‘Welfare, not Warfare’. We demanded that the university cut its insidious ties and partnerships with weapons manufacturers like Thales (a partner of Israel’s main military manufacturer, Elbit Systems), who are complicit in the world’s current genocides and wars. As an alternative to militarism, we have been active in calling for more public housing and cost-of-living relief, including with the NUS ‘Get a Room’ campaign.

Solidarity with First Nations peoples is an imperative. The University of Sydney First Nations Students’ Collective is open yearround to current University of Sydney students who identify as an Aboriginal and/ or Torres Strait Islander person, and our allies from all communities. We are a communitydriven group, dedicated to advancing the rights and interests of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students at the University level, as well as lobbying and supporting state and federal campaigns. Together, we want to leverage our collective strength to make a real difference for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students at the University of Sydney.

Welfare Action Group

Enviro Collective

The Environment Collective, also known as the Enviro Collective, is the official environmental group of the University of Sydney Students’ Representative Council. We are left-wing activists dedicated to fighting for climate justice that is staunchly anti-capitalist and anti-colonial, noting that our organising is done on First Nations land. We meet weekly during the semester to organise enviro activism - get involved and bring people along! If all things

Jordan Anderson reflects on becoming legally blonde through studying law. When asked to write this welcome, admittedly, I was taken aback. What…Me? Am I the pinnacle of law students? Am I a reincarnation of the illustrious Elle Woods (please let it be so)? What would I say to myself as a first year law student? The answer is not much that you will not have figured out by the end of semester 1. Nevertheless, for the sake of this handbook, but also, if this can help one young law student that will be a win in itself, my counsel is as follows. As I am sure you have realised, you are unable to do a law degree on its own at USyd, meaning that you have to combine it with, say, Arts. What this represents is yet another exercise in forcing students to take classes more than they want or need to, for the purposes of USyd management being able to rake in even more profits. Nevertheless, how the mandated double degree translates into your degree progression is doing law subjects with subjects from your other degree, before transitioning to doing exclusively law subjects in your fourth year (provided you keep on track with your degree progression). Those who do law speak to the difficulty of doing law. Though, when some say this, they say it with an air of selfgrandiose. Truth is university, generally, can be difficult, exhausting and thankless at times, particularly when, while you are studying, you may also have to work, make ends meet and balance other commitments. But this does not mean that it is unmanageable. In fact, I honestly found that the semester that I had the least amount of time to work on my law assignments - and therefore, I had to be the most efficient with my time - I achieved the best marks that I had ever achieved in University. Not that University should be like this, but, for some law students, it is our reality. While cliche, one of the most valuable insights that I can give is to make friends, which self-evidently yields its own benefits. I think this is especially important in a degree (and an industry) that is often competitive and individualistic. I also encourage you to become involved in the SRC (otherwise I would not be writing this welcome) as well as becoming involved in clubs and societies, more broadly. As a law revue devout, I particularly encourage you to audition, whether that be as an actor/dancer/singer, in the band or as a stagehand. Truly, it was one of the most rewarding and enjoyable experiences of my year. A miscellaneous note to finish on: when people ask what inspired you to law, I have no answer and I have come to accept that, that is a perfectly reasonable answer. Same goes for when people ask what area of law would you want to practise in? Truth is we are all figuring it out. 6

Daniel O’Shea waxes lyrical about #REF! in business. So you’ve decided to boldly go where no man has gone before - the sanctified bastion of higher education that is the University of Sydney Business School. Within these hallowed walls, you will acquire all the knowledge needed to become a certified business professional with a commerce degree to boot – what’s not to love! Depending on your major, every first-year student will be required to complete a number of units throughout their first two semesters of university. These foundational units, all invariably some variation of BUSS10XX, will give you basic competency in business analysis and quantitative skills (Excel). BUSS1000: Where it all begins. “Future of Business” is a unit you must complete in semester 1, year 1. BUSS1000 basically exists to familiarise you with the form of assessments common throughout your time at the business school, and establishes the key differences between writing in business and writing you may have done elsewhere. You will notice that the tutors of BUSS1000 prescribe a very specific way of completing the class’s tasks -to do well, you should follow this instruction. BUSS1030: Good ol’ accounting. This unit is pretty much what it says on the tin – you learn basic accounting. It’s a rather content heavy course, so keeping up with the Canvas modules (which are generally quite informative and easy to understand) is key. Though they left me questioning their necessity, the tutorials in BUSS1030 are compulsory to attend and are supposed to provide students with an opportunity to apply their accounting skills to real-world problems. BUSS1020: For my fellow finance bros, quantitative business analytics is a unit you must study to progress through your major. The unholy lovechild of HSC Advanced Maths and Microsoft Excel, BUSS1020 is a unit that is entirely based around using spreadsheets to solve business problems. This is one unit where you really want to attend the (compulsory) workshops, because assessments can ask you to apply various excel

formulae in wacky ways which you will not encounter unless you attend these classes. In summary, commerce can be pretty easy. Closely follow the content, apply it as prescribed and you’ll do just fine.

Alexander Poirier sings the praises of fine arts while studying music. The Con is the University of Sydney’s school of music, centred in the heritage-listed Greenway Building (the castle) in the Botanic Gardens, with teaching also on Main Campus in the Seymour Centre and eventually the Footbridge Theatre. The Greenway Building is one of colonial Australia’s oldest buildings, built in 1817 for the Governor’s stables, and now hosts the University School, High School, and Open Academy. As one of the oldest and most prestigious music schools in Australia, the institution was founded in 1915 by Belgian conductor and violinist Henri Verbrugghen. It started off as the State Conservatorium within the NSW Department of Education, the Con was amalgamated into the University in the 1980s, and combined with its Faculty of Arts Music Department in the early 2000s. The Con is the nucleus of musical culture in Sydney, led by Dean Professor Anna Reid, the most down-to-earth Dean at the University. Degrees at the Con are considered specialist, meaning there is a lot less flexibility in subject choice, compared to an arts degree, for example. Subjects are divided into a few groups: AHCS (analysis, history, and culture students); music skills (either classical or jazz harmony and aural perception, or fundamentals); composition; music education; music technology; contemporary; and performance and ensembles. A Con degree is much more than just a piece of paper, it is a culmination of the practical and theoretical skills that you have been taught in your journey as a musician. Therefore, take the absolute most you can out of all the. Every degree will feature classes in most areas, and the University Handbook will outline which order of subjects you need to complete to fulfil the requirements of your degree. The people you meet are equally important to your degree, and the centre of that student culture is the Conservatorium Students’ Association. We represent you on many Con committees as well as to the National Music Students’ Forum, host identity portfolio, and hold twice-semesterly meetings with the Conservatorium Executive; we also organise many social, welfare, and artistic events and initiatives. There are 9 societies of the CSA, one for each area of study: Philharmonic Society, Chamber Music Society, Chinese Music Society, Jazz Society, Contemporary Music Society, Music Education Society, Society of Composers, Musicological Society, Music Theatre Society, and Opera and Ballet Society. The CSA also publishes the Conservatorium student newspaper, Conversations.

Harrison Brennan invites you to consider the social foundations of the SRC while studying arts. The Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences (FASS) comprises seven schools: The School of Economics, The School of Languages and Cultures, The School of Humanities, The School of Art, Communication and English, The School of Social and Political Sciences, The School of Education and Social Work, and the Sydney College of the Arts. The additional elective space provided to most arts majors allows students to explore a range of niche units within these many schools, such as “The Sociology of Terror” (Sociology), “Screening Sexuality” (English), or “Herodotus and His World” (Ancient History). Many disciplines also share units, allowing students to fulfill degree requirements by taking units from a different discipline. For instance, Ancient History majors can undertake select units in Philosophy or Archaeology that contribute to completing their major. But given the plethora of options, what disciplines should students (from all faculties) explore? In my unapologetically biased opinion, I recommend exploring the options available in Philosophy and Political Economy. Philosophy engages in the systematic study of fundamental questions about the material and social world and our place within it. Philosophy offers something for everyone—from metaphysics and epistemology to ethics, logic, and political philosophy. It equips students with a valuable toolkit for interrogating and debating these fundamental questions, honing skills in rigorous argumentation, critical analysis, and clear communication. Philosophy tutorials stand out for their impassioned discussions facilitated by a set of eccentric lecturers. On the other hand, there is political economy, a unique offering that few other Australian universities provide. As an interdisciplinary discipline rooted in political science and economics, with a touch of history and philosophy, political economy examines the relationship between political and economic systems. The units on offer dissect the social and economic foundations of capitalism and delves into its role in shaping global structures of inequality and environmental destruction. Best Units in Philosophy PHIL1011 - Reality, Ethics and Beauty. PHIL2675 - Existentialism PHIL2613 - Plato and Aristotle PHIL2622/3622 - Reality, Time and Metaphysics PHIL2655/3655 - Ethics PHIL3682 - Romanticism Best Units in Political Economy ECOP1001 - Economics as a Social Science ECOP2012 - Social Foundations of Capitalism ECOP2011 - Economic Theories of Capitalism ECOP3015 - Environmental Political Economy ECOP3911 - Theories in Political Economy ECOP3011 - Race, Gender and Class 7

FASS tends to be the envy of students across the university, with an average of only three contact hours per subject and a flexible assessment structure consisting of 2-3 essays during the semester, along with a final examination or larger research essay. Students can expect passionate lecturers, at least 100 pages of dense but compelling readings each week, and to stress about the wording, structure, and referencing of essays rewritten multiple times on the day it’s due. However, no other faculty offers units that so profoundly reshape your understanding of the world, nor tutorials as heated or intellectually challenging as those in FASS. Taking off the rose-tinted glasses, FASS is in no healthy state. We must acknowledge how the arts have been put to torch in recent decades under neoliberal governments and the profit-motives of university management. Recent higher education policies have made studying an arts degree, or taking a single elective, punishing. In 2020 the Liberal Government introduced the Job Ready Graduates Package (JRG) tripling the cost of arts units from 2021 onwards. This has been accompanied by university programs like “Future FASS” which seek to cut costs by removing units with low enrollments, threatening the existence of entire disciplines and the livelihoods of staff. Most recently, Studies in Religion has been transformed into a minor due to low student enrollments, where a dark future of its dissolvement awaits on the horizon. Even the “successful” disciplines are not safe, with Philosophy set to have their units halved in 2025 despite sporting the largest number of enrollments out of any FASS discipline and glowing reviews from graduates. 2024 will be the last year in which many philosophy units will run. Future FASS has also seen the implementation of mandatory interdisciplinary units, mundane and widely hated courses which involve putting students from completely disparate majors together in a group to complete an assignment on a topic entirely unrelated to their degree or interests. For students majoring in FASS you will be required to complete three of these FASS units - I wish you luck. FASS is under siege. Given the attacks the arts face today from both the government and university management

who seek to run the university like a business, how are we FASS majors and FASS dabblers meant to respond? The USyd SRC has a long history of opposing the assaults on our higher education, and arts students have played a substantial role in these campaigns given that their studies are the direct target of management attacks. Students can do much to oppose the destructive rot being flung from F23 and Parliament House, and so where time permits, I encourage you all to get involved with the SRC, the Education Action Group (EAG) and take a stand against the increasing corporatisation of our higher education, to ensure it remains a public good.

Suhaila Mahafza wants to rebuild burnt bridges through engineering. Aren’t engineers just so cool? I would know because I am one. Prepare to immerse yourself into the wonderful world of the Peter Nicol Russell building, the hub that all the engineers love to congregate at in their free time. If there is one thing that engineering students are lucky to have, it’s their own hangout spot designated for them. Not just another little library, but a place that has connected all your classmates and peers to study, build and socialise in together. Most of your engo memories will be made here. Treat your Professional Engagement Program as your own CHILD. DO NOT DELAY PUTTING IN YOUR HOURS. Understand that PEP is there for you to gain hours of engineering experience through seminars, networking events, work experience and other engineering activities. Not only is this CRUCIAL for networking with professionals and colleagues but will be extremely rewarding for your engineering career in the future. Do not hesitate to get involved with the engineering societies. When you are transitioning to university from high school, making friends is not the same as it used to be. You must try to keep those connections as well as have fun times together, class would not be enough. Attend all the societies events (even if it’s from a different engineering faculty to the one you study). What really separates the engineering students from others is the supportive and friendly community which we are all a part of, as one large friend group that knows how to have fun.

Daniel Holland wants you to think artistically when studying architecture, design and planning. Entering your first year of university can be a daunting prospect - for those of you coming straight from high school, the classes and assignments are structured differently. For those of you who are mature aged students or entering after a gap year, getting back into the routine of academic life presents its own difficulties. To avoid burnout, take things at a sustained pace. Enjoy your time at university. While it’s important to be able to switch into study mode when you need to, maintaining a balance even during exam periods is a key skill to master. This means spreading your work out

across the semester is crucial: do readings, complete short assigned tasks, and watch lecture recordings in the weeks that you receive them. Doing this helps you to spread out your work over a longer period of time, ensuring you’re not cramming everything into the last few weeks of the semester. Be efficient with your time: during your study time, focus only on the work. Glancing at your phone every five minutes can turn a thirty minute study session into a two hour long grind. Doing this will means you’ll never have to make a tradeoff between your social and academic lives: you can complete everything you need to in its allotted time, then head to the pub, park, club or cafe after. Make sure you have a good record keeping system, whether that be through a digital platform like Google Drive, or taking advantage of old fashioned paper. Fishing through your jumbled notes for that one reading you did ten weeks ago is an avoidable pain. And finally - take advantage of the wide array of services offered by the SRC. Case workers are there to assist you with any issues you may have, and the free legal service is an invaluable resource. Your student money goes towards these things, so use them!

Jacklyn Scanlan defends the stylistic value of lab coats worn while studying science. So you have decided to become a STEM warrior, how good of you, remember to bring up you study STEM in every convo (Please don’t it’s very annoying). The main advice I can give for a science degree is: Pick majors, minors, and your study based on your passion and not possible jobs: University is about expanding your mind, learning skills and ways of thinking that you would not learn in a job. Many students, especially STEM students, study hard in subjects they hate just to get a job they hate; if you don’t like what you study you won’t like the job it produces. Plan more time to study: They give study time recommendations you may need to do outside reading on your subject so add 10-20% extra in time. STEM is hard, everyone knows that, so don’t think you’re invincible and plan extra time for study so that you don’t burn yourself out. Plan social/relax time: if you are in STEM make sure you plan social time and time to relax, you can’t be studying all the time, or running around doing a million clubs and extracurriculars. You need to be realistic and many people will pretend and act like they do a million and one things but in reality they probably don’t do everything and you need to be realistic about your abilities and focus on learning and your studies. Think about doing honours: If you want to go down the research and development pathway (Either as a university researcher/professor, or as a private researcher) look at doing honours and what the requirements to do honours are. Many science honours require good marks in your 3rd year or even 2nd year subjects, so if you plan to do honours, plan to get good marks in your subjects and plan your study around

that. Also look at what you want to research for your honours as you have to do a thesis on a subject that you research. The mandatory maths units have changed: In the past you had to take 4x3 unit maths subjects (so 4 half subjects when compared to regular subjects). This used to put a lot more work onto students and made it harder to study but now you only have to do 2x6 unit maths subjects. This is a similar amount of work in your first year but the one drawback is that university management have stopped running maths unit intensives over the holidays. If you failed one of the maths units you used to be able to take the one unit you failed in the holidays as an intensive incase you needed it for further studies, now you can’t do that so if you have second or third year units that require maths units be aware that you may have to rearrange units or push back units if you failed a maths units in your first year. Be friends and talk to your teachers: Your professors and tutors are people too and they have been down the same road you have, make sure if you need help or have a question to talk to them. Students and staff are in this together and you should not fear your teachers, they can help you and you should also know what their thoughts are. Imagine you teach 500+ people and everyone leaves as soon as the lecture is done and no one has any questions. It can be a hard job teaching with course cuts and support being cut off to teachers so it is always good to listen to them and be interested in their work. I hope these pieces of advice will serve you well in your science degree studies.

Oscar Chaffey delivers a deja-vu inducing overview of medicine and health. The Faculty of Medicine and Health, or FMH was born in 2018 from the hostile merger of the School of Medical Sciences, Pharmacy, Health Sciences, Public Health, Medicine, Dentistry, and Nursing. FMH is known to its managers as a mega faculty, one of the biggest (by staff and student numbers) at the University of Sydney. There are a variety of degrees that come under the FMH, mostly degrees that lead to careers in healthrelated professions. Undergraduate professional degrees (like Oral Health, Pharmacy, and Nursing are intense degrees with a look towards accreditation at the point of, or soon after, graduation. They involve clinical placements in Sydney public hospitals, community health centres and sometimes rural areas. The placement system is chaotic and often senseless. Familiarise yourself with the SONIA system when you can and plan ahead for the fact that your placement may be a significant distance away from where you live or work. Placements are also unpaid and rigorous. Regardless of what degree you are studying, your workload will be intense and an adjustment from learning you may have done in the past. It is wise to pick up a year planner and pencil in important dates so assignments, exams and miscellaneous tasks don’t slip through the cracks. 9

Surviving Uni

Melissa de Silva gives you the inside tips.

Taming Centrelink Centrelink has bureaucratic hurdles that are so high that many people give up without getting the payment they deserve. Education benefits both the individual and the community, and should be supported by a progressive taxation system. So, if you are eligible, take the money, and focus your time on your education. With so many people applying and receiving payments mistakes are inevitable, so if you have a phone conversation ask them for a receipt number, and email that together with a short description of what you spoke about to yourself, so that you have that time-stamped information, should you need it in the future. Centrelink prefer you to make enquiries online, so phone enquiries often take one and a half to two hours to answer. Some people have found the wait is shortest if you call as soon as they open. It may take a few months to process your application, which is a long time without money. Talk to an SRC caseworker about what options you have and check our leaflet Living With Little Money. Always report any changes in your circumstances, including moving house, getting a new housemate, changing subjects, getting an inheritance or scholarship, going overseas, or changes in your relationship status. Anything that happens that you do not report can be used as a reason to penalise you (financially) or stop your payment. Keep proof that you reported these changes just in case they make a mistake in processing it. Always report income when it is earned, even if you have not yet been paid. The SRC has information on how your income will affect your Centrelink payment, including how to calculate any reductions you are meant to receive. Read everything they send you. We know they send many, many letters, and emails, about many, many (often irrelevant) things. However, you are assumed to have read them when it comes to challenging Centrelink decisions. Centrelink is governed by the Social Security Act which is very long, and has many nuances to it. Sometimes well-meaning friends want to help, but they might not know about the very slight differences in your situation that changes how the Act applies to you. If you have any questions start by looking at the SRC’s website that has information on: 10

The different payments available for students

Being assessed as independent

How earning money effects your Centrlink payment

The impact of your parents’ income

The impact of your savings when applying for a payment

The impact of being in a relationship

If you still have any questions or need specific advice, contact an SRC Caseworker.

Living on Little Money

Here is some information to consider if you are earning a small amount of money while you are studying. Centrelink If you are a full-time student, and an Australian resident, you may be eligible for a Centrelink payment. Check the SRC Centrelink Payments information for more details. If you are a parttime student because of illness, disability, or Uni requirements, you might also be eligible for a payment. If you have any questions, ask an SRC caseworker. Scholarships and Bursaries The University offers financial support through many different scholarships and bursaries. Usually these are only available to students who have not failed any subjects and fulfil other criteria. Check for the details, and if there is any chance you might be successful, you should apply. The Uni also provides 12 month interest free loans, but only take a loan if you are able to repay it, as failure to do so will result in financial sanctions that will restrict your ability to use the library, see your grades, or even graduate. There are a few other community scholarships available through different charity and community organisations. The details of these change regularly, so search for more information before the beginning of each semester. Working Joining your trade union will help you to have a stable work life. Unions will protect your work rights individually and collectively, and their fees are tax deductible. To join go to australianunions. org.au/join. Pay Day Loans You may have seen advertisements on television or social media showing how easy it is to get a short-term loan. What the ads do not show you is how expensive these loans really are, with fees that cost an equivalent of 45% to 50% interest. Some consolidation loans will put in a position of paying off the interest each month, without reducing the loan amount. The SRC strongly advises you against taking out one of these loans, and instead talk to a caseworker about viable alternatives.

Buy Now Pay Later It is great to have interest free periods on loans, and partial payment schemes such as Afterpay, and Ezipay, but the penalties for late repayments can be very high. If you are going to use one of these services, calculate when you will be able to complete the payment, and how much this will cost you. Electricity and Gas Bills If you are struggling to pay your energy bills, call your energy provider as soon as possible. They can offer a range of assistance, including payment extensions, payment plans, and hardship programs, as well as information about concessions, rebates, and other support. You may also be eligible for an Energy Accounts Payment Assistance voucher for a once off payment towards your bill. You can also reduce your “bill shock” by paying a small amount each week towards your bills. Phone & internet Pre-paid accounts allow you to monitor your usage and keep track of your weekly spending. Being locked into a contract can reduce the monthly price but might end up costing more in the long term if need to move house, or if a better deal becomes available. Free alternatives include using the University’s internet to make phone calls and send messages through apps like Facebook messenger, Wechat, and Whatsapp. Keep in mind that some free Wi-Fi providers, e.g., the Uni, cafes, and local councils, will use your private information for their own purposes or sell it on to third parties. Yes, the Uni tracks you when you use their Wi-Fi! Debts The SRC Legal Service may be able to help negotiate suitable repayments for debts. There are also telephone advice lines including the National Debt Help Line and the Gambling Help Line. If you are struggling with debt, we also recommend you meet with a Financial Counsellor to provide confidential assistance in managing and resolving debt. Be very cautious of debt consolidation agencies as often the interest rates mean that you will never repay your debts and can lead to bankruptcy.

own food using free groceries from the Food Hub, get a discounted box of fruit/vegetables at closing time of a fresh food market, or look for pieces of fruit/vegetables that have fallen on the ground (“gleaning”), or join a community garden. If you find someone who will cook dinner for/with you, you could see if they’ll cover the cost of the ingredients if you provide the entertainment (e.g., board games). Being a gracious guest, helping to set the table, serve the food, and wash the dishes, may help to get you invited again. Finding a home Cheap housing in Sydney is extremely rare to find, with anything that seems to good to be true, likely to be a scam. Never transfer money using services like Western Union, never sign a contract before inspecting the property, and take special care to check what the penalties are if you move out early. Get receipts for all money paid, even if it is an electronic transfer, and email a photo of them to yourself, so that you have timestamped evidence whenever you need it. The SRC has an Accommodation Guide with more hints and tips. Furniture Cheap furniture, kitchen things, and clothes can be bought cheaply at op shops run by charities. The Bower in Marrickville also has secondhand furniture and small appliances, as do many groups on Facebook, including FreeCycle, Pay It Forward, Rough Trade, and Buy Swap Sell. When buying things through social media avoid scams by using cash only. You will find free furniture and applicances by going to wealthier areas just before their council clean up days to see what put out for disposal. Doctors / General Practitioners (GP) The University Health Service (Wentworth Building) provides bulk billing for domestic students and direct billing for Allianz OSHC. There is usually no additional ‘gap fee’ for other insurance holders. Some other doctors’ surgeries will not charge a gap fee, especially for full time students, so always check when making a booking. Psychologists

The University has a free Counselling Service that provides a limited number of appointments to help you with strategies to support your wellbeing. Budgeting Longer term mental health care can be through private psychologists. Often appointments are There are many different ideas on how to budget: very expensive, so find out about the subsidy make a spreadsheet to know how much to spend available through a mental health plan (domestic on each thing; give yourself pocket money; or pay students), or your OSHC provider (international a little bit on each bill each week. Whatever works students). There are a few services that will bulk for you is the best one for you to consider. For bill or charge no or a small gap fee, for example, more ideas go to ASIC’s MoneySmart page. Uplift Psychological Services, or eHeadSpace. Food You could also contact psychologists in your local area and ask if they can discount their fee. There There are a few free and affordable meal is a Psychology Clinic linked to the School of providers listed in AskIzzy. Lots of restaurants Psychology, who can provide counselling and may have discount lunch options, and most food also do testing for conditions including ADHD, for courts will provide discounts near closing time. a fee. Ask them for details. Be careful of food kept out of the fridge or heating for too long. You could prepare your

Dentists There are very limited options for free dental treatments through Medicare. International students should check their health insurance provider to see what services are included. Domestic students could consider the benefit of getting dental insurance too. The cheapest way to have good oral health is to take as many preventative measures as possible, including regular professional cleaning and check ups as well as a daily brushing and flossing routine. Ambulance Whether you or someone else calls an ambulance when you are sick or injured, you may be liable for the cost, starting at around $750. Health Care Card Holders are given free ambulance cover in NSW, and private health insurance provides ambulance cover from $45 per year. Other allied health services For cheap or free services, you could be treated by final year students (who need to practice on clients) under the strict supervision of qualified teachers. These services include osteopathy, physiotherapy, psychology, acupuncture, hairdressing, chiropody, and massage. Contact the faculty or TAFE offering these courses and ask them for clinic hours and fees. Health Care Card Anyone who is on JobSeeker or a pension from Centrelink is eligible to get a Health Care Card. Health Care Cards are available to most students on a Centrelink payment, or Australian citizens (or PR) who earn an average of less than $757 per week (single person with no dependents, as at 1st January 2024). It entitles the holder to: Reduced pharmaceuticals (about $7 or more per script) Free ambulance cover Access to free dental care (though the waiting lists are a few years long) Free prescription lenses and frames (limited choices) Discounts to some alternative medical practices (as negotiated with the provider). Sexual Health Have as much consensual, safe sex as you would like. The SRC can provide you with free condoms and lube, as can various sexual health providers and family planning clinics. Take the time to learn how to use condoms correctly. If you are a sex worker,

contact the Sex Worker Outreach Project for safer sex supplies, information, and support. Alcohol and other drugs It’s always cheaper to have some drinks at home than to go to a pub or club. NSW Health offers comprehensive information on many different types of alcohol and other drugs. For free needles and a safe point of disposal check the NSW Needle and Syringe Program. If you are accused of possession of illegal drugs, say nothing to the Police until you speak to a solicitor. The SRC has a free legal service. Transport Riding a bike is cheap but reduce the risk of theft by getting an effective bike lock and learning how to attach it properly. The City of Sydney offers information and courses on how to ride safely, and how to maintain your bike. Public transport can be expensive if you are not eligible for a transport concession, however, it is significantly less expensive than running your own car. When traveling from place to place, always consider your safety. Sometimes it is good to splash out and take a taxi or ride share home. Renting a car may be a better option than buying a car, if you only need one occasionally. There are car share companies as well as hire companies to consider. Read their contracts very carefully, as their excess fees and other costs can be exorbitant. Do not sign a contract until you have read all the conditions: yes, you should read the fine print. Fares Allowance You may be eligible for Fares Allowance if you receive a Centrelink payment, and you have to live away from your permanent home for study. Centrelink will pay for the cheapest form of practicable public transport to and from your home, each semester, regardless of how you travel. Fun The Union (USU) offers a large range of social activities that you can attend, that are either cheap or free. They also have an Access Rewards Membership for $45 per year, that will give you lots of discounts and benefits. University Clubs and Societies can bring lots of benefits for small joining fees. Trivia nights at various pubs in Sydney are also free to enter and can have some great prizes. Some pubs also have raffles or membership “badge” competitions free to people in the pub at a particular time.

Home Sweet Home Sydney prices are ridiculous. With interest rates soaring, renters are bearing the brunt of the “super hot” market, where low income earners are forced to live in sub-standard, unstable accommodation, that is nowhere near Uni, that still costs too much. The World Health Organisation says that if you are spending 30% or more on accommodation you are experiencing rent stress, while 50% or more means a rent crisis. For someone on the maximum Youth Allowance payment plus the rent assistance payment, rent stress starts at $114 per week, and rent crisis is $190 per week. Why does the Uni charge from $366 per week for a 7 square metre room with no bathroom, toilet, sink, or air con? The cost of living near the Darlington/Camperdown campus is significantly higher than the outer suburbs. Public transport as compared to private vehicles reduces CO2 emissions, decreases the wear and tear on roads, and provides relief to public hospitals treating victims of road related accidents. Why isn’t public transport paid for by a progressive taxation system rather than by the individual, providing an incentive to everyone to use public transport wherever possible? Check out the SRC’s accommodation page for many hints and tips you should know if you are renting your home. The basics for any renter are: Read, read, read Keep copies of everything Take all the photos Ask for help

in the future if necessary. Keep a screenshot of any online conversations you have with your landlord or housemates. Hopefully you’ll never need it, but it will be helpful if you do.

If you have been asked to pay deposit or bond via a money transfer service (e.g., Western Union), it is almost always a scam. Take all the photos Before moving into your new home take a photo of anything that is broken, dirty, or not working. You are responsible for returning the home in the same condition, minus reasonable wear and tear, when you move out. Email those photos to yourself and/ or your landlord so there is time stamped evidence of the original condition of your home. When you have moved out take photos showing all of the walls, floors, benches, oven, cupboards, bathroom, etc, showing that when you moved out you returned the home in good condition. Again, email those photos to yourself to have time stamped proof. If you need to take the landlord to the tribunal to get your bond back, these photos will be very helpful. Ask for help While lots of people have experience with renting, there are many nuances to the different legislations that apply to different types of accommodation. The SRC has trained caseworkers who are happy to give you advice on your specific situation, as part of their free service.

Read, Read Read Before signing any contract or lease read what you are agreeing to. Check the date you are meant to be moving in, and the date your agreement ends. Know what the penalty is for you to leave early, even if you intend to stay for the whole time. Read about any other conditions that will affect you while you are there. Check that you know the legal name and contact details for the person you are paying rent to. Keep copies of everything Get a receipt (not just a note in your bank account) for all money paid, including bond, rent, and any other fees. Take a photograph of all of the receipts together with your agreement and email it to yourself, so you have a time stamped copy to use

What is a DC? A DC (Discontinue Not to Count as Fail) indicates that after the census date, you became unable to complete a subject because of illness, an exacerbation of a pre-existing condition, injury, or misadventure, that was unexpected, and outside of your control. DCs do not count towards your WAM or academic progression. It is best to apply as soon as possible by submitting your application and supporting documents through the DC portal. Check the SRC website for information about what documents you need to provide. If you successfully receive a DC, you will also receive a refund or recrediting of your HECS or fees. If you withdraw from a unit after the census date, but before the end of the teaching period (week 13), and do not receive a DC, you will receive a Discontinue Fail (DF) grade. A DF is not counted towards your uni WAM, but is counted for progression, and in some cases may be counted towards an honours WAM. How were you before the DC? You must demonstrate that you were engaged in your subject, attending classes and completing assessments, before you became affected by illness, injury, or misadventure. You should have applied for special consideration for any assessments that you missed. If you did not get special consideration for missed assessments, you will need supporting documentation to explain why. Do you have supporting documentation? DC applications must have formal, third-party supporting documentation from a relevant medical practitioner, counsellor, or similar professional. If possible, use the Uni’s Professional Practitioner’s Certificate. Sometimes it may be appropriate to get a statutory declaration from a family member or friend or provide a student declaration yourself, however, use this as a last resort as it is not usually considered sufficient. Your documentation needs to clearly state the period and how severely you were impacted, ideally “very severely affected”. The period you were impacted should start after the census date and should continue until the date you are applying. When getting supporting documentation, it is best to focus on how you have been affected, not on the event itself. For example, if you broke your leg, don’t focus on how you broke your leg, but rather why it means you cannot attend classes. If you had a loved one pass away, don’t focus on how they died, but how you are affected by grief. Did you pass any units? If you passed any units in the semester you will need to explain and have it stated on your supporting documentation, why you were

able to successfully complete those subjects, but not the ones you are seeking a DC for. What can you do if your application is declined? You can, request a formal review of the decision, outlining why the decision was incorrect, and if appropriate providing additional documentation to support your claims. This is your last chance to appeal so talk to an SRC Caseworker to ensure you are putting your best case forward. How can you manage your distress? The reasons that make you apply for a DC, together with the process, can be distressing, especially if the outcome of your application is delayed. Talk to the Uni’s Wellbeing team to develop strategies to help you to cope.

Special Considerations What is special consideration? If you (or someone you are the primary carer for) experience short-term (less than four weeks) illness (physical or mental), exacerbation of a pre-existing condition, injury, or misadventure, that is beyond your control, that affects your preparation or performance in an assessment, you may be eligible for special consideration. Misadventure can include, but is not limited to, unexpected financial problems, family illness, recovering from bereavement, sexual harassment, a car accident, or problems with a landlord. It does not include attending a wedding, an overseas trip, or other social events. If the University approves an application for special consideration they will give some flexibility in meeting assessment requirements, such as an extension or a further examination. They cannot give you extra marks. If you are still unwell, or experience another illness, injury, or misadventure, for a supplementary exam or extension for an assessment, you should apply again for special consideration providing new documentation. Where the faculty is unable to provide an additional supplementary assessment, you will be given a Discontinue Not Fail (DC) grade. Simple Extensions A simple extension is a 5 calendar day extension on an individual, non-exam assessment, such as in-class assessments, quizzes, and small tests. It is not available for all assignments so check your unit of study outline. Apply through the Special Consideration Portal, on or before the assessment due date and provide a Student Declaration explaining why you want the simple extension. If you have followed the instructions correctly, approval is automatic. If you are still unable to complete the task after 5 (calendar) days, due to illness, exacerbation of a pre-existing condition, injury, or misadventure, you can apply for special consideration. Special arrangements

If your study is affected by important things that are not appropriate for special consideration, you can apply for ‘special arrangements’. This includes, but is not limited to, jury duty or court summons, an essential religious commitment, sporting or cultural commitments where you are representing

the University, state or nation, and in some cases essential employment. Again, this does not include attending a wedding, an overseas trip, or other social events. You will need to provide supporting documentation. For final exams, supporting documentation and necessary forms must be lodged no later than 14 days after the exam timetable is published. Disability If you have a long term (4 weeks or more) medical condition (physical or mental), or ongoing primary carer responsibilities, you can apply for support. The Inclusion and Disability Services can help you to create an academic plan to successfully complete your degree with any reasonable accommodations. If your disability becomes exacerbated around the time an assessment is due, even if you have a Disability Plan and have already been provided with a reasonable adjustment, you can still apply for special consideration. Discontinuing If your situation is impacting your ability to complete a unit, consider discontinuing from that subject. Applying for special consideration You must apply within three working days of the assessment deadline. If you apply late, you will need to have a documented, compelling reason as to why you were unable to apply on time. Apply through the Uni’s Special Consideration portal and provide the appropriate supporting documentation, as outlined in the portal. Medical documentation (e.g., Professional Practitioner’s Certificates) must be from the day of or before the day of the assessment. If you cannot see your doctor on or before that day, use a home doctor service. If your medical documentation indicates that you were only moderately (or less) affected by your condition, it is unlikely that you will be given special consideration. Appropriate misadventure documentation varies according to the situation. You want to prove that what you say did happen and it did affect you and your studies. Where possible, get a PPC from a doctor or counsellor to show how you were affected by the misadventure. While it is possible to use a statutory declaration (written by you or someone close to you), it is generally not considered sufficient without other evidence or supporting documentation. Rejected applications You can appeal a rejected special consideration application, within 15 working days. Talk to an SRC Caseworker for details and advice.

Studying with Integrity Many students confuse academic honesty allegations with misconduct allegations. If your allegation letter is from your faculty and says you have potentially breached the Academic Integrity Policy, you should read the information below. If your letter is from the Registrar or the Student Affairs Unit, and says you have potentially breached the Student Discipline Rule, you should read our Guide to

Student Misconduct. What is a breach of academic integrity? Plagiarism is either deliberately or unintentionally stealing someone else’s ideas and/ or words. Recycling is reusing part or all of an assessment that you have previously submitted. Even though the ideas and words are your own, you are required to present new work that you have prepared specifically for that assessment. Any other action that gives you an advantage over other students, may also be considered a breach of academic integrity, or perhaps, more seriously, a student misconduct. This includes, but is not limited to, using an unauthorised source (mobile phone, notes, etc) in an exam, getting answers from or giving answers to another student, a group chat or website, and providing your lecture notes to a file sharing or “tutoring” company. How can you avoid academic integrity breaches? If you have paraphrased someone else’s ideas, you must provide a reference to show whose idea it was. If you are using someone else’s words, you must put them in quote marks, and provide a reference to show whose words and idea it was. The Learning Hub can help you with referencing techniques. If you want to work with a friend, both of you should talk to your tutor about the areas of your assignment that you are finding difficult or talk to your friend without writing notes or looking at each other’s assignment. Check the exam conditions to know what you are allowed to use during an exam. If you are able to use a calculator, get an “approved” sticker from the Student Centre. What to do if you have been sent an academic integrity allegation? I’m sure most of you have seen the tiktoks saying how helpful it is to use CHEGG, or other file sharing or “tutoring” companies, to help with your study. If you use CHEGG, Coursehero, Github, or any other services like that, to write any part of your assessment, it is “contract cheating”, and you are very likely to be suspended from your degree. If you have engaged these services, please seek advice from an SRC Caseworker. There are many “services” online and through WeChat, that say they will help you to respond to the allegation for a fee. They are not familiar with the current USyd policies and are not acting in your best interests. SRC caseworkers provide free, confidential, independent, and professional advice. Contact us as soon as you receive an allegation to get advice on how to proceed. You can also read about the process on our website. Having an allegation made against you can be a stressful process, so consider talking to someone in the Student Counselling Service about strategies to help you manage this distress. They offer a free and confidential service, and do not judge you or what you did. 15
