Oh and don't worry hiphophorray123.... i'm sure there are a lot of ppl who got mid 70s+ (and live close to Bankstown) that have now decided to apply for social science. Aargh!!!

yeah i got into Arts @ SCU but i definitely don't wanna go there. it's for external study so i'll most likely fail my grades =/

you know its been advertised on radio n stuff that UWS got extra govt funding this year and created like 1500 extra places throughout their courses or something like that.. hopefully heaps of ppl will get late round offers..

That's like the best news I've heard all day! I hope they announced that after everyone's pref had to be done (yest). Like now they can't be changed. Hopefully not to many ppl got to hear bout that before, more chances for me to get a spot then!!!

hiphop why didn't you accept your main round offer ? and what was it, anyways ? say you do get an offer in the late round for social science, you could easily accept that one and reject your 1st offer. and say you DON'T get a late round offer, you could use your main round offer as your ticket in.. then make the grades and later on transfer to social science. win-win, mate.

btw im in the same situation. my main round offer was social science, but i wanted to do arts or communication. i accepted it tho and attended the advisory session thing. hoping to get late round offers for either arts or comm =/

I was in a daze after i found what my uai was and i did a really stupid thing, put b horticulture as my 1st pref. So that was my main round offer, I doubt i will be able to get credit average in that so it's no use.

Now, i have b social science as my 1st pref
and b community welfare as my 2nd pref

if i dont get an offer for social science but comm welfare it'll still be allright because they have similar units and this area is my strongest so i can use that.

cape, if i don't get an offer in late round, i will have non-award at macq as backup....my application was successful (well they sent me a studnet number so im assuming im accepted...don't think they've fully processed apps yet) to study at macquarie as a non-award student, i chose subjects that I know i will do well in, so i can probably get into b social science at mac through that...but it takes a year longer...so that's why i wanna get into this.

hiphop have u heard about Unitrack @ UWS ? thats another way of getting into any course at UWS and it takes 5 months i think. i was gonna do that cos my uai was crap all, i got accepted for it, but ended up getting an offer so yeh.

umm yep i think that 1500 vacancies ad was brought out after main round.. i think i heard it about the next day after getting my offer, can't remember.

Well hopefully most ppl were happy with their 1st offer and haven't changed their pref for this round. That will give all of us a better chance. It's just the wait is killing me!!!!!!!!

Yeah it's so stupid. I was away on hols when the main round came out so i called my mum and asked her to check but that wasn't til the thurs. You see i was out partying on the Wed night and didn't want it to ruin my night (or my holidays) if i didn't get an offer. I was like dying by Thurs arvo so i made the call lol. Kinda made the rest of the hol better! Yeah but anyway now that I'm not on hols anymore I have all this free time on my hands and plenty of time to worry bout gettin in this course! SUX!!!!

the suspense is killing me

b social science sounds so very very interesting, and it's the area i'm strongest in, i am lucky that if i don't get in i at least have my birthday celebrations to take my mind off the disapointment...hopefully the cut off goes up by .45 :D or doesn't go up at all
