according to their FAQs, it states:

Undergraduate Programmes
A basic undergraduate degree programme usually takes 3 to 4 years. The actual duration would vary depending on the number of credit units or courses you choose to pursue in each semester. You have up to 8 years candidature to complete an undergraduate degree. On the average, most UniSIM students take 4.5 years to complete a basic degree and 6 years for honours degree.

so i guess minimum 3 years?

Hi!

I'm going to send in an application to apply for the Human Resource Management Degree by UniSIM.

Can anyone let me know if they have managed to secure a place with a private diploma with working experience?

I've written in to their student recruitment and they told me to give it a try with my qualifications.

Anyone knows?

Hi everyone,

I registered to HWZ just to be able to reply to this forum. Anyway, I applied for BA in Social Work last September for the Jan 2013 intake but did not get in. Instead, they offered me a provisional offer for the Jul 2013 intake. I accepted it and paid the $500. Now just waiting for them to close application and send me a final offer.

Course duration for a basic degree is 3 years. For honours degree, it is 4 years but you can take up to 8 years to finish your course.

For course fees, yes, you will have to be around $10k after offsetting your PSEA. Please take note that using PSEA is by reimbursement basis, meaning you have to pay your course fees first and then, MOE will reimburse you. I emailed them regarding this and got this reply:

"To use PSEA funds, applicants will have to pay their course fees first. Thereafter, submit the PSEA form together with the official receipt to UniSIM. UniSIM will collate all PSEA submission and forward to MOE for processing. Upon approval, refund will be made to you and this process takes few months."

To my understanding, the course fees you paid includes materials, text books and exam fees so you wouldn't have to more.

The curriculum plan is a recommended plan and it is not mandatory. You can take the modules in whichever order you want but some modules have pre-requisites i.e. level 2 modules can only be taken after completing level 1 modules. There are some modules which are recommended to be taken together too. All modules have their "expiry" date so it is better to plan your modules for the whole 3-4 years before choosing them.

I don't think so but you might want to call/email them. Some courses have an admission interview though they did not state on their website. Mine has.

On another note, anyone here planning to take SW or is currently studying it?

Does anyone know once I confirm my course, whether I can quit my full-time job and take up a part-time job? Will they check/expel me if I do that? Since it is a requirement to be working full-time or has 2 years working experience. I completed my 2 years NS but I am not sure if it counts. Thank you!

Dun worry la. The school is clean. No hidden charges. The charges u need to foresee is booming transport cost to school to work to home lo.

No need but its good to have cos u will be value adding to ur career with what u are studying. If at the moment u r not working in that field, its okay. But do pls have a clearer goal in mind n not for the sake of studying ok.

You may steer at ease with peace if u select fundamental mods first. Like they always say we shud learn to crawl then to walk n maybe fly. Some mods may be linked. So u have to read backgrnd of mod first. And i think got quota. So have to fast hand fast leg chope ur seat. Jia you!

Hi people, I need your advice. If I do not have relevant background what are my chances of admission to a non-relevant course? Example studied engineering and in engineering job but applying for business

They don't really care. It's a good way to have a fresh start, sort of.

I think they will just look at your GPA. I was previously from IT and i got accepted in psychology with business.
