Any news about Arts though?

They have to notify us even if we weren't shortlisted. Apparently if you miss out you get a letter from the Scholarships and Prizes Office, and if you get shortlisted, you get one from the faculty. It's my guess that the Arts Faculty is just less organised than the others, hence the delay.alexdore993 said:They will tell us if we've been shortlisted right?
It's probably also got more applications though.rani.g. said:They have to notify us even if we weren't shortlisted.

Same. I do this all the time with my email though. I'm always waiting for an email, or looking to see if someone's posted a new post.rasengan90 said:No, I think we're still all waiting for arts. I check my letterbox every 3 hours or so just in case.
Hahahahaha... I did exactly the same thing. As if a page is enough space, seriously and it took me quite a few drafts to even get it down to fit even with narrowed margins and small font.rani.g. said:Don't worry - am exactly the same. True about verbosity - I actually narrowed all my margins and used a slightly smaller font to fit in everything for my personal statement! Then again, I am applying for Eng. Lit. - so go figure!
I know.danz90 said:Do we get the rejction/short-list letters by email or post??
This is really nerve wracking....lol
Yes. But because of your post, every Art faculty-hopeful will read this thread and get excited... because they read the start of your post and then the rest... like I just did. lol.danz90 said:omgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomomgggggggggggggg just got a letter!
I got shortlisted for a scholarship in the Faculty of Pharmacy for 2009! Woooooooot!
I'm ecstatic. Does this mean that now all I have to do is get the required UAI?
Thank you very muchly, also well done to danz! Hmm, maybe I got shortlisted because I am quite verbose as well, which could have stuck out in the eco and bus faculty.alexdore993 said:Good on you! That's really good. Congrat's
lol. I'm sure it's a mixture of that and superb achievements. There is lots of competition for these scholarships. Yep.olivegreentiger said:Thank you very muchly, also well done to danz!

Argh... lol... and I live in Singapore so any letter would take even longer to arrive!danz90 said:Thanks olivegreentiger, congrats to you also! thanx 2 alexdore993 also
Alex, maybe the Arts faculty hasn't sent out their letters yet. Each faculty sends out letters individually - on the envelope the letter I received was in, it had the Faculty of Pharmacy stamp. I'm guessing maybe Arts faculty is a little lazy/slow lol
They said they wouldn't accept anything over the limit.solomarc20 said:Did anybody else get reserve listed? I applied for science and I got my letter back (18th November) saying that I made it on a reserve list. I didn't get asked for an interview, but its not an outright rejection. I'm a bit confused!!!
Who else went over the 1 page limit?
I am getting paranoid too. I received two letters addressed to me today but neither was from USYD. DAMN YOU UAC!alexdore993 said:Now all the Arts students are getting nervous. There are only 50 given out and 7 or something have gone to people visiting this thread. haha.
Do you mean they only shortlist 50 people out of all applications across the faculties? Or 50 per faculty?alexdore993 said:There are only 50 given out and 7 or something have gone to people visiting this thread. haha.
