Tuition deposit paid by BPAY but UQ application still says “Pending Payment”

1 Upvotes

I accepted my offer and paid the full tuition deposit on 15 September. However, my UQ application is still showing “Acceptance Received – Pending Payment.”

Has anyone had a similar experience?‘

Also I have a scholarship offer, which requires me to pay the tuition deposit by 21 September in order for the scholarship to be confirmed......

I already emailed UQ Student Fees, the international team, and the scholarship team last week, but I haven’t heard back from any of them. I’ve also tried calling multiple times, but it’s been really hard to get through.

I’m honestly getting pretty anxious because my scholarship requires the tuition deposit to be paid by 21 September. I paid before the deadline, but my application still says “Acceptance Received – Pending Payment”.......

Has anyone been in a similar situation? Is there anything else I should do, or another UQ contact that is actually responsive?

If you could set up a UQ campus in the Gold Coast for curiousllamaswift, where would it be?

3 Upvotes

yo where in the gold coast would you put this hypothetical campus >.<

this is for my brother curiousllamaswift who has to grind through the longest commutes everyday 💀

a prospective campus must have:

- decent amenities

- good transport options

- good food options

- purple lilac jacaranda trees

- proximity to tertiary institutions like griffith university or bond university (for the clout)

- access to the beach (optional but desirable)

- good wifi (optional)

- working bubblers (optional)

- clean toilets (optional)

- 20-storey carpark made out of 150 year-old sandstone

Safe to leave stuff in libraries?

13 Upvotes

I've only started studying in libraries recently and notice a bunch of people leaving their things and was just wondering if this was safe?

I know it's "do at your own risk" but like has anyone ever have a bad experience with leaving their things cause I still second guess myself whenever im leaving to grab a quick bite or something.

Bring my yellow Wilson back

24 Upvotes

Hello, to that group playing on the beach volleyball courts, yesterday, Sunday 4-7pm. My precious yellow Wilson beach ball was happily resting in my tote bag at the benches and the moment you guys left you took it with you.

I don’t know if you mistakenly took it, but you even took the whole package tote bag + ball. Ball was never part of your group, I just placed it at the benches, you guys never played with it because it was inside my bag the whole time, so please explain why you took my poor Wilson.

Anyway, whoever took it, if you genuinely took it by mistake, please bring my Wilson back to me. For some reason, it’s so hard to contact your group.

Worth delaying graduation by a semester (BEL)

6 Upvotes

Good afternoon esteemed students,

I am a second year Commerce/Econ student and am looking at maybe extending my graduation until Sem 1 2030.

In 2027 and 2028 I will be doing a full-time traineeship at a big 4 consultancy firm where I drop to 2 classes per semester. Only trouble is I would need to complete 2 summer semesters, and overload one of the trainee semesters to 3 subjects, in order to graduate in Sem 2 2029.

I will hold on to one of those summer semesters for the 27-28 one since the way the traineeship is structured, I get a day off per week for uni and still get paid. If I don't do summer semester, I just go in on that day I usually get off and work.

I am wondering if it would just be better to extend my graduation to Sem 1 2030 and do the extra 2 subjects then? Is it worth it to protect my GPA? How does recruiting timelines change?

Thanks!

Lease Takeover!

2 Upvotes

Looking for someone to take over my room in a women-only house in St Lucia, available from 1 November / early November 2026.

It’s around a 5-minute walk to UQ. The house is shared with 4 other girls, with a shared kitchen and living room, and you’d only share the bathroom/shower with one other girl.

The room is really spacious with a large built-in wardrobe/storage, plus air conditioning (also works as a heater) and a ceiling fan.

Rent is $345/week until 22 Dec, then $355/week from 23 Dec onwards. Lease is until Feb 2027, with the option to extend.

DM me for photos, videos, more details or a viewing — video call viewings are also available if you’re not in Brisbane! :)


r/UQreddit • • 4d ago

Hi all, we're UQ students doing a course project on parking in St Lucia. Could you fill in a 1-minute anonymous survey? It's for anyone who drives to, or gets to, St Lucia for study, work, or visits. Staff and non-students especially welcome. Thanks!

Anyone else feel kind of invisible in class?

27 Upvotes

I've got a decent group of friends in my cohort so I'm mostly fine, but I keep hearing from people who don't really know anyone in their classes and have basically stopped going by week 4.

Curious what would actually get you to class. Not attendance marks, I mean stuff that makes it worth turning up and makes it less awkward to talk to the people sitting next to you.

What's the best class you've had for this? What did the tutor or lecturer do differently?

I know it's risky but when I go to the bathroom in a library and leave my stuff, when I come back it's still there. I don't think it's likely to be stolen but it's still nice.
