RMIT sucks!

They increase freaking $400 for my course!! I don't know about other course but omfg $400!! I checked swinburne, they charge lower than RMIT! I remember when I decided not to go to swinburne because they were too expensive (stupid me I should've tried to apply there).
So people, If you decided to go to Uni in Melbourne, DONT GO TO RMIT, unless you have no other choice, but seriously RMIT sucks ass.
Well here it goes.
I'm doing a multimedia course, which means we have to use computer all the time.
In RMIT, they use old iMac (unless they change it recently - which I'd found out on the 3rd of March), yes they do have powerPC BUT they use freaking Dell monitor!!!! Dell!! DDDDDDDDDDEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My bf went to VU, and they use PowerPC AND MAC monitors! Like brand new! And they have like 20 of them on every lab.

RMIT? Pffft, we only have like 4 or 5 labs and sometimes we can't even use the lab because some of the teachers/ lecturers are dumbasses. It makes sense if the class was full, but if there were only few students there and the teacher wouldnt allow us to use the computer then it doesn't make any sense!

Talking about teachers,
some of the teachers are good, I like them, but there are some that can be pain in the ass. But so far it's all cool, except for some teachers such as W***Y BITCH*R (yes its real) and D*V*D C***LL
=)

Ok, ok, what about the student service?
C-R-A-P, CRAP!!
The people that works at The Hub are shitholes, unless they're new or still in training.
They're pain in the ass seriously. If you needed any help, DONT GO THERE cos they normally just yell, being mean, and basically shits you.
I've been through to all of those stuff. I just wanna graduate ASAP, RMIT shits me.

They always do this survey thing every year and asking students what's happening on the course and crap, and most all of my classmates said that theres no use doing that cos THEY NEVER LISTENED.
We pay freaking a lot of money and what do we got? Anything but Dell monitor!!! >.>

OH the good thing about RMIT is, they change our interactive media lecture!! lol.
Thats the only thing I like atm about RMIT.
No one likes him, and teachers been saying theres no way RMIT will replace him, cos apparently we didn't have any "qualified" teacher to teach advanced html/flash action script.
On November 2007 they sent us e-mail saying that someone will replace him this year, and i was like YAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYY!

Anyway, nuff of the rant lol at least now I can tell people about the other side of RMIT.



edit:
To those who commented on this post.

I honestly can't say anything whether RMIT is a good university or not.
I know I may sound a little biased up there but I was telling the truth.
RMIT doesn't care about our course (Creative Media) since it's a pretty new course.
They have 2 different (yet freaking the same) course that do animations: My course (Animation & Interactive media) and Multimedia.
We even had the same exhibition night. I have no freaking idea why they have 2 different course for this - we did the same thing: MULTIMEDIA.
I'm saying here: RMIT is really poor when it comes to our course. They don't treat us right.
We did survey and everything (RMIT was the one that did it) since we were in first year, but we have not seen the result.

I can only suggest you: If you're after interactive media course, CONSIDER TWICE.
I did interactive piece for my final project and in my course Interactive stuff always come second. They prefer animations and videos people.
Yes I'm being biased again.
So if you're into ActionScript and such, do consider other university, they may offer better stuff over there.

I also suggest you to go to the Open Day on those Universities.
Ask for the examples of their works.
