- Switch to swap/change between international and domestic (so that whatever version a user has he/she can change this if they want to see the other version
- Different contact block (Jo, if you think the domestic block need one international mention, then do the same in the international one but still have switching blocks
- Different application process, so any mention (on earlier tabs) and the whole Apply tab will need to pull different content for international
- International have a database/content source for country specific entry criteria. How can we access and surface this? Do we want /need to?
- Show only international fees in the summary/icon, with a whole different fees tab for international. Might be able to do it all in our app, but might have to link out to VI for the richer information they are required (by law) to provide.
- A disclaimer will be required for some programmes (or major choices), with one or more or a small number of pre-defined reasons. Need to unpack this further and write a user story to describe it.

From Anne
Great job Joe! It's nicely designed 
Ireview the content (including button labels and link text) after the next round of improvements - will that work for you? Sam and I will do that together. Here I've included content tweaks only where they really jump out.
About page
Heading: Remove (BAS) from the heading (throughout) - put it in the intro text instead.
Video - KYM? If there is no video, we might use a [standalone] student quote instead?
International students' block
Good to see it here. However, let's change the wording so we don't say something isn't available (that's negative - we need a positive twist on it). How about:
International students
Architecture is available for domestic (NZ) students only. However, international students can study Building Science at Victoria University. (link)
Fees icon and text - we have to cover ourselves by telling them that it's an estimate only. Eg:
Fees for domestic student (est)
OR
Fees for doomestic student
$16,000/year
(estimate)
Next related event - great to see this here! Suggest you reword this to: Next event (the context is obvious).
'Similar programme' - reword to 'similar degrees'
Acronym for Bachelor of Building Science is BBSc
Useful high-school subjects
Rename: Useful secondary school subjects
Not sure this would be easy to do for degrees like BA?
Great to know
I like this a lot! Is it a summary of key points from below?
Transferring students' block:
I see this more on the degree planning page. (Transferring students will read the About page along with everyone else, but need help on the next page.)
Enrol in Architecture - reword to: Enrol in BAS
Contact block
0800 Victoria - the grey text will be hard for some people to see, and won't meet accessibility standards.
Degree planning page
The main heading (Bachelor of Arch Studies) is at the top of each tab page - it looks a bit odd. We used a different approach on topic pages.
Box for choosing majors:
This was a little confusing.
I think the purpose of the major box is unclear. I assume that it sets the info that displays below? It needs a relationship with the info below so that is clear - eg, through design, or through text (not ideal).
The view is a little confusing. It would work well if it opened with: What major would you like to study? At the moment it opens with: 'Show info only for'.
Show info only for: I found that heading a little confusing - I wasn't sure what it related to.
Second major in: I think they will all choose a second major, just because the option is there and they don't really know how university works.
I think we should (MUST) tell them that choosing a major from a different programme is an option. How about this text: Some students choose to study two majors ('double major'). Here you can choose another major from within the discipline, to see what courses ('papers') you'll study. However, at Victoria you can choose a second major from almost any area of study.
However, I'd prefer the page to just have a single major. You could say:
Here you can see what courses you'll study for a [landscape design] major. Sometimes students choose two majors ('double major').
Entry requirements
I'd put these after the degree requirements. I think it's best to tell them about the programme, then tell them how to get into it. But happy to discuss - I'm flexible on that.
I'm not sure about putting admission requirements under 'Entry requirements' - they are different things and should be kept separate. This is actually where I'd say that entry to the BAS is open, but to year 2 is restricted (including option choices).
Degree requirements
Suggest remove the sentence 'To finish this degree...' at the top - we don't need it.
Suggest nesting the 'minimum' text as below:
Get at least 360 points in total.
This must include:
- Minimum of xxx
- Minimum of xxx
- Minimum of xxx
Gain entry ... I wouldn't include that here - this is very much about getting into year 1.
xxx (first major)
We don't have useful school subjects by major - only by degree. We'd have to ask each academic involved for these, for every major. I'm not sure the content is high value enough to justify this - but let's discuss.
'Leads into:' Nice idea but might be out of context (ie, what leads into xxx?) Just cos we're under a heading: Landscape Architecture. You could say 'Degree leads into'
Button: Enrol into Architecture
Rename: Enrol in BAS (or Enrol in Bachelor in Architectural Studies)
Time left to apply - great to see!
Additional requirements
I'm not sure I'd highlight this here - where they are looking for info about getting in and getting started. Let's put it on the About page - maybe under Year 2 or in the 'Good to know' block?
Schedule and courses heading
Two really difficult words for school students - and difficult to explain in a heading. Why not call it:
What you'll study (as on Topic page)
or Courses
or Courses you'll study.
The intro text needs to use the word course and explain what it means, fairly early on. Try: In your first year, you'll study courses ('papers') like design, environment...
I found the course boxes a little unclear:
I wasn't sure about the difference between General courses and Example courses. In the current info, Example courses is 'Example degree' - that might be better?
I wasn't sure why some boxes have courses listed while others have 'Elective course' and 'Core course'.
I'd do away with words like 'core course' and 'elective course' and call them 'Compulsory' and 'Choice' or 'Optional'.
I wasn't sure about the link wording 'Hide recommended courses'. Why are they called 'recommended'? Perhaps just say 'Hide courses'.
Year 2
Says it's specific to the specialisation you've chosen - but we're on that now - perhaps just say: 'Covers relevant technological...'
Other majors
Nice
Fees and schols
Small content tweak - Other study costs - remove the word 'living'
We have to tell them it's an estimate only. See previous note
Not sure about /y
might have to use:
/year
OR
/pa
School leavers' scholarships
Remove (is a duplicate of what's further down).
Programme-related scholarships & awards
I like the way this is integrated, but wonder about its value for school leavers who really just want to get into uni.
If we decide to keep this:
Change the heading to: Scholarships and awards for Architecture students
Then add a sentence saying: Below are some of the scholarships and awards you can apply for while you're a student.
OR
During your study, you can apply for other scholarships and awards.
Apply and enrol
Love the visual look to this.
'Check that you meet the admission criteria' - change to 'Check that you meet the admission criteria for university.'
GES - would be better to put it in full. But no worries if it's too long.
Plan your study - can't see it, is obscured by a duplicate menu in the wireframe.
Apply to enrol where under tick box - this is a duplicate of heading in step 3. Change to: Get an offer of study
Key dates
Can this be automated? If not, let's discuss with Tash and Tania what might be involved in keeping it updated.
