are you allowed to do
B.Comm (Actuarial Studies)/B.Sc(Adv Maths) for co-op? i thought no double degrees (with the exception of civil/environmental engo)
No, I don't think so. But if I don't get Co-op, that will be my first choice.

At the Co-op info lecture they said you can negotiate with your sponsor(s) for double degrees if you get it and it's ultimately their decision. So basically apply for Co-op and just ask then if you can do a double degree.

cool, but in hindsight, I don't actually think co-op is worth it - just seems like a way of locking in top students to particular companies...i mean if you're good enough to get co-op, you're good enough to get vac work anyway...
In terms of not being able to do combined degree, I agree.

Doing Law + Commerce and getting into vacation work > just coop commerce (except actuarial)

I know someone who is number 7xx. so at least 700 applicants then haha

I would assume that there would be about 1000 at least in total across the disciplines of science, engineering, commerce + built environment

No, didn't stay up all night- went to bed at about 3 am.:p I finished it and sent it in at 3 am too. LOL.
If the application number is related to the time of submission then I am glad ^_^ 335 isnt too bad, at least I wasn't one of the last-minuters.:D

#240 over here.

I freaked out for a second when it said "and/or Faculty of Engineering Rural Scholarship", because I didn't read the "or", and I panicked, thinking I'd filled out the application wrong.
