Good Thing is Flowing in Slowly. |
Something made me really happy today and they really made my day today! I received good news from Murdoch University regarding my transcript credit points. There was a tiny problem when I lodged my PR application the other day. My agent told me that from the way he looked at my transcript, after calculating the advanced standing and all the credit points, it seems like I have only studied 1 1/2 years in Murdoch University, not 2 years.
I need that 2 years to be qualified to apply for an Australian PR. My agent said that I need a letter from Murdoch to further explain my situation and how my credit points are being calculated and to prove that my course is a three years course and I have studied two years there. (Failed units are not included! heh!) So, last month I had to go through a few people at the International Office explaining my condition through phone and emails, spoke to 4 or 5 people.
In the end they decided to issue me that letter but it made my situation worse by saying that my degree is 72 points degree and I am being awarded 48 points of advance standing which means I have only studied one year at Murdoch University? What the fuck man! Moreover, I spoke to the head of the International Office and he didn't sound friendly and not willing to help me in this matter. As if I am wasting his fucking time to settle my problem.
So, I didn't bother calling or writing to them and decided to wait till I go back to Perth then go to their office and talk to them face to face. Then one of my friend asked me "How come you didn't ask X to help you settle your issue? She works in the International Office and works with the Dean. Maybe she will be able to make thing easier to talk to since all of them are her colleagues."
"Fuck!! Yeah hor! How come I never thought of her?"
Guess what? She only took 3 days to settle the letter that I needed and I am so glad that she made things clearer over at the International Office side. I really owe her one big one! Will treat her go makan once I go back to Perth. Before that, I took almost three weeks corresponding with those International Officers because they said they were busy at that time. Heng I have a friend working in there, or else, I would take longer than that to settle!!!
Now I am hoping that my agent would tell me that the letter is good enough to support all my documents in order for me to get my PR.
