I do not recommend the nursing course. My entire experience here was dreadful. Initially I was searching for an affordable nursing degree, to enable me to make progress in my life by serving and caring for others. After leaving halfway through the 3year degree here at SIT, I continued my studies elsewhere. I learnt that the course here does not even deserve a one star. It is simply outdated and highly unprofessional.

SIT2LRN course for level 4 applied science was good, facilitators were very supportive. But… If you have no further study plans straight after this course I would not recommend taking it as they were not able to send out a half way progress report which on their website is supposed to be sent to you 6-8 weeks into the course. I never received this and almost a month and a half later AFTER the course had finished, I am still fighting to get a copy of my HALF WAY results to add to my application for my degree that I wanted to do. As they couldn’t send me out anything, this is a large part of the reason I was placed on the waiting list for my degree and will be delayed until next year which is very upsetting. Very unreliable, has caused a lot of stress as I’ve been mucked around for a while now. One of the women that I’ve been back and forth over email with has sent some not so professional and outright rude emails to me. The application process for this course was a nightmare also, a lot of back and forth with emails and was guaranteed a spot in the course if I dropped my hours of work down to 20. after I dropped my working hours from 40 to 20 as instructed, the lady decided to not accept me, it was then that we spoke to someone higher who had a bit more compassion and understanding to accept me. Overall, if you want to spend $500 on a course to receive no official results of all your hard work and just do it for ‘experience’ then this course might be for you! Thanks SIT >:(

I was pursuing Graduate diploma into Applied Management(Level 7). Absolutely Terrible staff. The program manager keeps harassing and issues warning letters for referencing or she tells your performance is very poor. As per my agent we were supposed to have our classes in the main campus but we had downtown campus with extremely bad infrastructure and problem with the heaters. Apart from this the program manager is extremely incorporative and a very insensitive women. I must say an heartless women. She keeps harassing the students for getting higher grades and poor referencing. Hardly in a class there are 4-5 students or for some subjects just 2 students, but if a student is being disliked by the tutor or the program manager, inspite of submitting the best assignments, international students are failed. Absolutely racist. The program manager talks very rudely to the international students and does not provide help if needed. To pass a subject one must get an overall C- in the entire subject. But if you fail in an assignment even before the semester could end she issues a warning letter to discontinue the course. So my personal advice please do not apply for Graduate diploma into Applied management(Level 7).

I was studying Bachelor of Nursing here. In year 2 I experienced finanical , emotional, psychological, and physiological harm due to Head of school, Year 2 Programme Manager, and some year 2 tutors. I cannot fathom how people like this are in power and are supposedly a representation of health. The ongoing bullying, undermining ,and harrasment lead to a loss of self esteem ( this went on for a whole year, even though i was still sitting exams). I would rather pay full fees elsewhere than deal with the mental headache anyday. I find it really unfair how some students are given extenstions, or resits even though clearly these students do not meet the certain standards of becoming a nurse. It really shows how a person in power can manipulate the system and use it to their advantage. Very unfair.

I'm not sure of the rest of it but the hair dressing units very well set up. I was privileged to be asked to be a model. I was very impressed.

Cannot fault the absence of tuition fees, but some direct material costs are high with some courses. There is plenty of scope for some tutors to improve in their teaching and attitudes towards students. A cheap way to get a qualification.

Good quality campus, full service, comfort, full facility, friendly and professional staff. I recomended. I learned English Course here. Now more students come from other country, i think SIT need to develop more classroom and tutor.

I wish we had read the reviews of this institution before enrolling. My son worked so hard for his half year course only to find out 90% of his assignments had disappeared and the course manager didn’t put in any effort to find out what happened. It’s near impossible to get any relevant help from the administration. They treated my son like he had not put in any effort at all, failed him and asked him to redo the course the next year at half the pace. Unbelievable waste of time and effort. Total lack of student support. I have only now uncovered so many similar situations with other students. I proofread all of the assignments my son submitted, I know how much hard work he put in. All for what? Nothing. How does this institution get away with treating young people this way?
