Today I finally got an email from QUT to say that my information package from Rikkyo has arrived. I didn't know however, that I would be required to go and pick it up. We were under the impression that QUT would forward it to us in the mail. Why Rikkyo couldn't have just sent it directly to our home addresses I'll never know. Guess I'll be making the 2 hour round trip in to uni sometime this week to pick it up. Sigh. Oh and for those of you who were wondering, no this package doesn't include our CoE (Certificate of Eligibility) which we need in order to apply for our visa. This will be sent sometime at the start of August (or so we've been told). I've requested that Rikkyo send this directly to me, there's no way that I'm making the trip in to uni twice when I don't have any classes!
I've also been emailed by COBBY. COBBY stands for College Of Business...something something. Actually I have no idea what the B and Y on the end stand for. But basically if you are enrolled into Rikkyo's College of Business (which I am as I'm doing a business degree at QUT) you will be given the option to have a buddy who is Japanese and a student at Rikkyo. Of course I've said yes, because I'm going to need someone who can answer my stupid questions. Like how to tell a hairdresser that I'd like my fringe trimmed. I can just see that turning out disastrously if I ask for the wrong thing...
I'll let you know what the information package says once I've picked it up!
