Why do you say that? And nice.. thanks for that, things is... it'll probs be getting a lot of action this year too :P lol

WOO HOO! I got an offer.. i just rang up, and i've got a deluxe room in Cromwell, the dean was SO nice, he could not have been friendlier. OMG cannot wait! See you all at O-WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want to apply for commerce at UNSW but it says that i need the quivalent of HSC Maths to gain entry, does anyoe know what this would be in either gcse, AS or A2 standards??? It fails to say. I'm a domestic student btw :) Thanks

yeah i checked it again and it says under each subject : You were not eligible for consideration in the offer round because you have not satisfied one or more of the prerequisites required for entry to this course, and therefore we are unable to advise whether your QTAC selection rank would have...

yeah ditto. I sat my exams in the u.k. but i have a permanent residency visa so that's why i'm classed as a domestic student, otherwise i couldn't afford it. I've applied to UQ for commerce, but i'm not sure if i really want to go there yet, or if i'll just stay in the u.k. and go to the...

For my A2's I got: History (A 120pts) English Lit (B 100pts) Economics (B 100pts) AS Maths (D 30pts) I rang up USyd and they told me that I only had an OP of 92 :( According to the University of Queensland I have an OP of someting like 97 so they must all...

LMAO at GinoIs And i'm a domestic student, i have a permanent residency visa, and someone else just told me that the results were released 14 hrs ago :S

No, but thats the thing, the equivalent entry rank was a DDD mark in english a-levels... and i got ABB, so surely I should have whizzed through. It;s for commerce btw.

I've checked my application, and it just says: "Your application has not yet been considered for an offer in a tertiary quota place" wtf does this mean, I thought release date meant ALL offers had been considered??????????:eek: Anyone else got this? Thanks

Yeah I rang them the other day and they said that Cromwell offers should be made around friday though to monday of this week and into next, because they have to wait to have confirmation from QTAC that you got in. Also, I heard that QTAC were releasing offers at 9am, so being in London I've...

oh ok... so if you applied for a CSP could you be turned down and offered a FFP?

Do most people who study in Aus Uni's get a commonwealth supported place? / why would people apply for full paying domestic? Thanks

So there are only 50 vacancies for new students!!! :eek: also i'm 19, i turned 19 in october, and this is the average age for 1st years here. oh... now i'm worried.

Re: Usyd vs. UNSW vs. UQ, which one is better for econ? Why would you ditch UQ to start with? Also.. have you been offered a firm place by UQ? Cos their offer rounds haven't started yet :confused:

I rang them up to ask what the chances are for getting into Cromwell, cos I applied there too and the woman said that well over 200 people had applied but she couldn't say anymore than that. I also heard that there are only 200 spaces and that siblings of current/ past students have priority...

It's ok.. I got an e-mail back yesterday and I was told that Cromwell don't make decisions until the 2nd week of january unlike other colleges who release them early and that i didn't have an interview, because I wrote a brief biography instead. So looks like i'm ok after all :)

Yeah I mean I rang them like over a month ago and they said that they had it and everything, because I applied on-line. Do you think they just won't interview me because i'm still living in London and the time difference etc.? Thanks.

omg are they already handing out accomodation offers?!? :eek: I applied to Cromwell, but I haven't heard anything back so far other than they received my application like months ago. Are we meant to get a telephone interview or something / when do all the offers start coming? ... I thought it...
