I was wondering here who got a schlorship for uni or at least an offer of a scholarship and if it has made a difference. I received a Smartstart $2000 one from UWS

A girl at my school got a $100,000 scholarship for Bond Uni up in QLD. I don't know if she accepted it...

Im hoping for one of those usyd ones for proficiency in mathematics. They are only about $600 but atleast it pays my enrolment fees. I just have to hope the two people that finished above me in maths both didnt apply for usyd.

People who get smart start are those who apply and enroll in particular courses at UWS and have at least one of the courses listed in their first two preferences. They sent me a letter in the mail (because I have had previous contact with UWS) along with the list of courses that get smartstart. One of them is nursing so I get $2000. It certainly pays to send those free information request forms from inside the booklet! Without that, I probably wouldn't be able to afford ongoing uni costs. (books etc.) So thankyou UWS! :d

yeh .... I know .....I think it's my fault because they have to ring up all the duxes to ask them stuff for the paper, then they'll advertise at the same time and my friend said that the principal has been trying to call me for a week and I've been on the internet......oooppppsss
