Hehe. Fair enough. Dooley is president of the academic board & heading the scientia thingamy. Hence my increduality that I'd wound up with him as a mentor, especially considering the degree I'm doing [he's a prof. of maths]. All very weird. Someone call the scholarship office.

Quite right. Which is why I thought that it was no different to post it; otherwise I would have just confirmed/denied. @rench - no, the email wasn't entirely general. There was several attachments including an acceptance of the scholarship, your mentor and information on the meet the mentor...

- Is the full cc'ed list, so I'd check your junk mail if I were you. Everyone gets their own mentor :) You get to meet them on thursday of O-Week

They were all sent to personal emails - I checked the cc'ed list.

The documentation says "maintain a satisfactory academic record (a minimum of 80%)". I would assume average.

Okay, so who just got their email and mentor? [If my mentor and your mentor had a fight, mine would win. Just, why maths?]

Ace: No, you don't have to pay back and money, and there's bugger all formal conditions... the only thing is the average, with money being paid into a nominated account after March 31st (census). I'm applying for a cash advance because I'm reasonably screwed as a result of New College's payment...

Precisely what he said :D

Yup, with a major in finance. I get the distinct impression that the recipients of these scholarships are going to be herded into one little elite group, so I imagine so...

Mum managed a HD average for the last two years. Can't be that bad. Also, going to UNSW is worth to me... um, -$1000. New college = $11k, and I don't have anywhere else to live.

Believe me, I almost took ANU up for this fact. I'm personally more worried about 3rd year since Law seems to come in with a vengeance and finishing up the commerce degree... not to mention "Access to higher level courses" :burn:

Anyone else joining the ranks at the law faculty? I imagine it'd be the most crowded faculty for the recipients, since the UAI is so high already and it's not offered for medicine...

It's 99.9 OR over. Come to UNSW! Get paid! Laugh at USyd! (or similar)

I only just changed my preferences to add Combined Law at UNSW, so that might be it in any case...

For USyd? Or for UNSW? For the former it would make sense, since the USyd scholarship is only for 99.95+. Even if I'd scraped another .05 I wouldn't have been able to take it, since $5k pa wouldn't even come close to covering the cost of living in sydney. If it's also 99.95 for free food at...

There's a morning tea? (I refuse to believe I missed out on free food by .05 :( )

I go to a grammar school and we don't give nuttin for Dux - unless you go to Newcastle Uni, THEN you can have a grand or so.

Susan Tomlin (LL.B.) = My legal studies teacher ;)

99.9, no tutoring. Really great teachers though, especially in english (14th) and legal studies (6th). Private school, scholarship student :)

Crazy insane marks. Congratulations!
