DESPERATE TO GO TO UTS! (1 Viewer)

[silbi]

I WOULD DO ANYTHING to get into uts faculty of design...
atm my "uai" looks so bleak --; meaning my chances are zilch!!!!!!!
is there any other ways to get into uts..without the a UAI in bright lights?...--; *sigh*

hrmm

ANYTHING..?

well, you could do property economics........ or building-something haha.

okay
interior design: if u _really_ can't get the UAI (it was low 90's last year) then go to Tafe and do an interior design course for 1 or 2 years and transfer to Interior. much easier to get in with some previous experience, as not only your UAI is taken into consideration

architecture: ditto, go to tafe, do a foundations in architecture course for 2 years, transfer. gotta work hard though. uai 86 last year

fashion: not based on uai last year it was based on a portfolio, interview and personal statement. so that _should_ be easier but it's not cos it's frickin competitive and only 30 people got in last year (and only one dude!)

dunno bout industrial and vis comm., salad boy..?

alternatively, if you are loaded you can pay full fees also, if u have any disadvantages i.e financial/physical/otherwise, there are ways around it which can help getting into uni easier.

umm really i think the best bet, if u really want to get into the DAB faculty, u should either
a) do a tafe course and then transfer ASAP
b) do another easier UTS course and do really well and transfer into DAB

viscomm uai was about 93-94, can't remember, having dropped from 95-ish the year before me.

and i don't think DAB does uai cuts for fee paying people, well that's how it was when i last checked, i think.

thanx for the advice^^;

 

[tooheyz]

hey man get the scholarships applications.. worth a shot man!
you can get them at the admin centre of uts or ask ur careers advisor

woah
wow the cut-offs used to be even higher
90s for interior and 95 for vis comm?
and i thought 90 for vis comm this year was high

 

[krayzie_]

lol, you replied to a 4year old thread

 

[msh]

lol there are only 2pgs of threads here and i just happen to read it..
it's really surprising though.. i didn't know that the cut-offs used to be THAT high i guess they are accepting more ppl every yr now.. i guess (i dont think uts design has gone down in popularity at all)
its already high but wow.... it used to be higher
wow 90s for interior and high 90s for vis comm and fashion
yeh im desperate to go too lol

 

[poppop]

well aren't we all desperate to get offered

 

[msh]

im probably gonna give up trying after this year if i STILL dont get offered.:mad1:

 

[avantgarde]

i cant wait either, hopefully I get high enough to choose from which design major I want. Currently thinking of Interior, Vis com or Fashion[maybe].

 

[msh]

ok.. fingers crossed this time, for my second interview. .
otherwise I'm just continuing with my deferred UNSW B Design place. :mad1:

I think this thread should be used to discuss tips on 'getting in' through the non current school leaver method. Considering most people posting here are 'desperate in getting in,' I'm assuming they don't have the uai or is hoping for a transfer after realising how unsuited their law/arts/science/engineering/business degree is to their personal aspirations...

 

[poppop]

i think i'm 100% sure I'm going to UTS next year

Hope to meet others that will be in Design 08 soon!
