5 bonus pts at newie? (1 Viewer)

[noel_gallagher]

Im sure theres a thread on this, but I was wondering, I live in Newie and em eligable for the 5 bonus pts. I got UAI 74.15 and Applied for B/Arts and this year it's 79.00

with my bonus 5pts it should be alright, but .15 lol

Any thoughts?

Its only 4 points. Also, for combined degrees its 0.

Yeah I checked my offers, and it's weird cos I applied for other things and I got the right UAI but didn't get offered places in those courses either.

Ok if it's 4pts that makes sense then.

B Communications at UNE - 70.00, and there are vacancies in that course.

B languages and international business at UNE - 70.00 and there are vacancies there too...

Oh and I should have gotten into B Arts at Ourimbah... but didn't

Also, the bonus points applies to Newcastle's entire footprint area.. which is from somewhere near Taree to almost Sydney i think.. so lots of people get the points

On the newcastle site they tell you about it. I forget where.

You should check to see whether or not a course is classified as being 'combined' first - some, like engineering, state very clearly that they are combined courses; whereas others like teaching AREN'T combined courses (not only did I ring up and ask about it, I was accepted to it and my UAI wasn't close enough without the bonus) ...

same there is no way i wouldnt have got in without my 4 extra uai points...
