Important note: added – 29 jan
The myTimetable people accidentally allowed you to preference the studios in your timetable. This has now been turned off.
But, you are able to enter in your preferences for your other courses till 5pm Monday 7 February 2022 (and, again, it is not ‘first in, first served’ so there is no rush). And the Review and allocation adjustment opens 10am Tuesday 15 February 2022 for another month.
from previous posts:
Do not try to select your studio in timetable preferencing – the media studio ballot and allocation process happens outside of myTimetable.
Don’t preference tutorial times for your other courses (context and electives) that take place at the same times as your studio. Your studio class times will be entered for you in your timetable (but possibly not until after the preferencing period).
Remember that all lectures and screenings are online and/or recorded so those kinds of clashes shouldn’t be an issue.

MyTimetable preferencing opens today.
Don’t preference tutorial times for your other courses (context and electives) that take place at the same times as your studio. Your studio class times will be entered for you in your timetable (but possibly not until after the preferencing period).
Remember that all lectures are online and recorded so those kinds of clashes shouldn’t be an issue.
If you have been allocated to an On-Campus studio (this is stated at the end of the studio title the timetable below) and aren’t able to come on campus, please get back to us ASAP
Requests for studio swaps are only possible in genuinely exceptional circumstances – and these do not include clashes with paid work, internship opportunities, wanting to reduce days in and/or travel time and so on.
We appreciate these things are important and real issues but the numbers of students involved in the studios make post-allocation swaps unfeasible and the current system is as equitable as we can get it.
Any questions about particular studios should be sent in the first instance to Studio Co-Coordinators (please address to both. And when replied to PLEASE REPLY ALL):
Dan Binns, daniel.binns@rmit.edu.au
