Today I enrolled at the University of Western Sydney with an early offer I received to study Bachelor of Communication. Originally, I wanted to study the comms course at UTS as it's renowned to be the best there but my ATAR , which was 72, didn't meet their 89 ATAR . So I enrolled at UWS with a plan to go there for a year and then transfer to the course at UTS. But now I've realised with 5 extra bonus points, which i will probably get as I am eligible for the Educational Access Scheme, I can get in to Bachelor of Arts at UNSW. I was thinking that maybe I should go there if i do get an offer and transfer internally to their Media and communications course? Would love your opinions! Should I just stick to UWS?

Choose a course that you really want, just incase you do not perform well enough to transfer. In other words, stick with the UWS Communications because if you screw up, at least you are stuck in the course you really want.

in my opinion, you should take bachelor of arts at UNSW.
transferring internally is usually MUCH easier than transferring universities. it is a long process.
yes there will be competition but you will have a higher chance of being employed.

UNSW and UTS are not the same uni ~~~

Also on the topic of internal transfers, at UTS internal transfers only exist for inter faculty transfers unfortunately.
