    When is the last day to drop courses?

    I'm really confused on when the census date is to drop courses without financial penalties. I've read the dates and things, but I'm not sure which ones apply to me. Is it the "Semester 2, 2017 - Payment due (T2 and T2A)"/"Semester 2, 2017 - Census date (M2A)" - July 30th, or is it the stuff on...

    Usyd dux/future leaders scheme

    I had a low 99s atar. I had what seemed like close to all ATAR courses available as it had combined law there.
