I should be obliged if somebody would assist me.

I am age 69 and have been accepted by USQ into BLaws Semester 1 next year. I am a graduate of USQ (Applied Science) but this was years ago. The normal enrolment for on-campus students is four subjects. I am, however, concerned that it will prove a little difficult to succeed with this many. I am thinking two or three. Has anybody been in a similar quandary regarding attending University?

Help is needed here!

Thank you.

Some uni's consider 3 units per semester to be full time.

If health is not an issue and you are not working and you have no other calls on your time, why not give 4 units a go? You may find law easier than science ;)

And you can always change the following semester.

Hi villageidiot

I've just graduated from USQ, so I hope I can help. You can choose to do part time study for a semester if that's your thing, or you can enrol in four units and drop one or two a day before the census date if you think the course load is too much. Good luck with your studies, and I hope this helps!
