Hi all! Last year i did uniprep to enable me to get into uni, obviously, i knew this wasn’t going to get me into the competitive courses i wanted (nursing 1st or paramedicine 2nd) so i enrolled in biomed as I come from a science background and knew i’d enjoy it while i was building a resume to get into nursing or para.
I applied for semester 2 entry into nursing and they rejected me after i was in good standing and got mostly distinctions. They also waited until the last business day (hour for that matter) before the semester started before rejecting me, and i got into the very last stage of applications. After digging more i realised this is likely due to oversubscription due to notre dame students transferring over worried their accreditation would be taken away. I’ve since become super sceptical and applied to other unis. I had zero troubles and got into curtin nursing (1st preference) on the first day they started releasing offers. I think it’s pretty poor ECU isn’t accommodating for their own, especially after i’ve dedicated so much time and money to this university.

My point of this post is wondering if anyone else has had similar experiences with ecu, and how i can possibly up my chances of getting in next semester? im not sure if i even want to go to ecu anymore due to this experience.

Hi everyone,

I was previously accepted into speech pathology, before realising it wasn't for me. Back in 2023. I left before Census cut off.

I am super eager to hear back about sonography or paramedics. I know I won't get into sonography as I am just not competitive enough; seeing as ATAR 93 was the lowest scoring entrant last year, yeah, my ATAR equivalent of 92 via bridging pathway plus my 13 completed allied health units in an anatomy and physiology degree with D average, won't cut it.

I am actually more suited and more wanting to be a paramedic anyway. I knew I wouldn't get into sonography which would also be an amazing career for me, and over the mo the since I've applied for 2027, I have become more and more psyched about being a paramedic and have leaned towards it being my ideal job. I feel made for it.

All that's to say - it's taking them and awfully long time to decide.

Has any other want to be paramedic applicant been accepted yet ? I'm SO nervous.

Help!

Hey everyone,

I applied to Edith Cowan’s Master of Nursing (Graduate Entry) about 3 weeks ago and have not heard back. I’m aware its a competitive program, I’m just looking to see if people have been accepted yet. If so, what was your bachelor degree in and what were your grades like?

Thanks :)

Also let me know if you have applied and are still waiting on a response.

I’m looking to apply for the bachelor of preclinical foundations of medical imaging at ecu for 2027 but am stressing about how competitive entry is.

My ATAR in 2023 was 94.8 and my current wam at uwa is 78

does anyone know if i actually have a chance of getting in?

UPDATE: The subreddit is back online and everything should be operating normally again. Thanks everyone for your patience while we got this sorted out!

Hey everyone,

Just a heads up that r/EdithCowanUniversity has unexpectedly been banned by Reddit.

At the moment, I'm not sure why. Reddit hasn't provided a specific reason on the ban page, and the subreddit was actively moderated with clear rules. To my knowledge, there wasn't any content being allowed that violated Reddit's sitewide policies.

I've contacted Reddit ModSupport requesting a manual review and clarification on why the subreddit was banned. Hopefully this was an automated or mistaken enforcement and we can get the community restored.

For now, r/edithcowan can be used as the alternative ECU community while we wait for a response.

I'll post an update once I hear back from Reddit.

anybody here doing IT/cybersecurity? want to be friends

I’m currently trying to decide between ECU and a couple of other universities, so I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who is currently studying or has graduated from ECU’s MPH.

How is it studying bachelor's civil engineering in ecu? Is it easy to find internships?

Hello,

I was looking at the ECU website the other day as I’m planning on studying a Bachelor of Science (Cyber Security) next year.

The page for the course says it’s no longer being offered? I assume they’re probably just fixing the page itself or adjusting the course slightly coz I’d assume ECU wouldn’t just completely wipe the course?

I’ve made an enquiry but wanna know answers asap haha, if anyone has any information that would be much appreciated :)

Admission application status says
- School review finalised- Admission to review

… whats the most likely outcome

Hello everyone. I'm considering applying to ECU to do the comp sci/IT degree at ECU and wanted to know how it is for those currently doing it, whether they feel it's worth it or not because I've seen plenty of mixed reviews about the uni. Besides the education, please could let me know how campus life is. Thank you :3 (if you don't do the above degrees could you tell me how teaching in general is)

If i apply now, what should be a reasonable time to expect my decision

Hello, I was wondering whether anyone has swapped from UWA (or even another uni) to ECU to complete an honours in psychology?

I have a few questions:

- What WAM did you get?

- What WAM is the minimum?

- How has your experience been?

- Is your honors sufficient for an entry into Masters at ECU or elsewhere?

Thanks!!

Does anybody know things i should take care of while submitting a personal statement, is there a format or should i avoid mentioning my personal life experiences or if its should be direct to point ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey, im a international student doing Psychology in Perth and I’m graduating at the end of this year. I am thinking of doing the Masters of Primary Teaching program in ECU and would love to hear from some people how is the program going and what is it like. Also, are all classes at Joondalup? How often do you have to come to campus? Are the assignments/ exams tough?

Also, what are some experiences I can do before going into the program? I’m trying to get a couple of Casual Education Assistants but it’s quite hard to get. Will walking into any nearby primary school and asking if I can shadow/ help out be okay if I want to gain experience?

I’ve been working on a new app called Bello, and I finally have a version that people can try.
The idea is simple: it’s a place to meet new people and make genuine connections.
It’s still in a very early stage, so I’m sure there are plenty of bugs and things that could be improved. I’d really appreciate it if anyone could give it a try and share some honest feedback—good or bad. Every suggestion helps.
I’m building this mostly on my own, so your feedback will genuinely make a difference.
If you’re interested in testing it, here’s the link:

Thanks so much! 🙏

Hey everyone,

Just looking for some advice.

My friend is doing a Master of Hospitality Management at ECU and got 38 in HOS6502 – Current Issues in Hospitality. During the final exam, he accidentally missed a question because it was on the back of the exam paper and didn't realize until the exam was over.

Has anyone been in a similar situation? Is there any chance of getting a review, supplementary assessment, or any other option after a narrow fail?

Any advice would be really appreciated. Thanks!
