What are my chances? (1 Viewer)

[Dunzo]

Hi all. :wave:

My first preference was Engo/Sci at UNSW. The UAI cut off for that was 88.something, not quite sure. Now, my UAI was 84.1, and realizing that even with my 1 bonus point I wouldn't quite make it I applied for FEAS. The interview went well, the guy was very friendly, seemed impressed and wished me the best of luck. I received an offer for my second preference in the Main round, but I would REALLY like to go to UNSW, so what do you reckon my chances are like for the Late round?

Thanks!

But I don't want to do Arts

what politik is referring to is that you can pick similar subjects (maths, and other science courses) in Arts to that of engineering/science. Then you can transfer to Eng/Sci at the end of your first year.

Alternatively, have you consider enrolling in science, then transfer to eng/sci after 1 year? There is no difference.

Ah OK, thanks for clarifying. If I were to start a BA/BSc would I be able to tack on a BEng after the first year and still only be there for 5 years?

Yes, if you pick everything in arts/sci that can be transferred to your eng/sci degree, so you are not "wasting" any units of credit.
