Yes, last year kids got to use the facilities in places like Fenner, they were NOT allowed to use Hotel facilities, like the pool etc. Lol Could be a bit of a hassle, every time you want to go to the kitchen you have to walk down the road, lol.

I think they only guarantee accommodation to the people who get offers in the main round, not late ones... so that guy is kinda stuck.

Well of course, if they actually placed people into other people’s apartments then they would still have to provide all the on campus stuff - which would be hard to do, by getting other students to advertise then they don’t need to do that. It’s a bit desperate and very un-organised. I...

You might not end up in Rex, but may end up living with current students in their house or apartment, this is the email I got from ANU today – asking for help to give new students accommodation. Dear ANU student, The Students' Association has been asked to contact you by the Pro-Vice...

Even if it’s designed for a couple, it’s still a tiny box at a rip off price and it wasn't on my list of preferences.

They did this last year to everyone... I got shoved into Toad Hall... a total dump and bore; I left after 6 weeks and got my own apartment in Canberra city centre. This year I thought I’d apply for Uni-Lodge multi bedroom share ones (Friends there), and got an offer yesterday for a Studio at...

I worried about the same thing last year. They UAC Automatically get your STAT results (if you did it in NSW). Call them and check, they can confirm that they can see your result.

YAY, that sounds more like it. Maybe because MQ have only started it this year is the reason they are giving out wrong info and don’t have a clue. So, hoping that the UAC is right, and that it’s going to looked at like the majority of other Universities, then you should be fine. Good luck...

Well hopefully they will look at it differently and similar to other unis, otherwise it’s not fair. In saying that, just come to ANU – you’ll walk in with that score (but you need the Written English STAT aswel), we are a Go8 University and have a great Psychology department, and you can do...

Well that’s not good if their doing it that way. If they are then I think it’s only fair they tell you their conversion method, or are they taking your STAT percentile as your ATAR? 1:1, is that what you mean, are they saying if you get a STAT percentile of 75% then they are going to make your...

I wouldn’t take advice from someone who doesn’t know the difference between “There”, “Their” and “They’re” – Obviously a drop kick. I go to a G8 University, and I can tell you, it’s not all that. Griffith University is known for their Criminology Course and are one of the best in Australia...

It sounds like the will just combine it (which can only be a good thing). You got a decent STAT score, and that alone would get you in, now you have a UAI to add to it too. It can only make it better. I had no UAI at all and still got in on STAT alone. Trust me, you’ll be fine. It’s only...

STAT scores are not converted to ATAR/UAI scores simply because you are going into a different group of applicants, so it is irrelevant. As you is not competing against people going to Uni from High School. You can’t give people who are doing an aptitude test (STAT) the same score/result...

I got into Uni with the STAT test alone (last year) and I know how the wait feels... applied in the September, did STAT in the October and had to wait all the way until January to find out.... it was a horrible wait. But I can tell you, and probably even bet my life on it that you will get in...

If you look at current Australian Ambassadors around the world, in any country (not just the list above), you can clearly see that they all have different degrees, and the degrees themselves do not get you a job as an Ambassador, it takes years and years of work experience in other departments...

You can’t convert a STAT score to an ATAR or UAI, it doesn’t work that way. They also don’t usually use the percentile mark. Most Unis also won’t tell you what STAT score you need, but the general rule is that if you got over 145 – 150 as a STAT score then you’re in. Good luck.

Well, you have a long way to go. Don’t just think that once you get a degree you can become an ambassador (as so many ANU IR students think). It takes years, and lots of work in other areas first. Here are links to current Australian Ambassadors overseas, and it gives you their background in...

You could do your degree as planned. But also in your spare time do the “Bachelor of Criminology and Criminal Justice” degree that Griffith University offer via Open University. Here is the site. http://www.open.edu.au

I did the STAT test last year and that’s how I got into Uni. 145-150 is the average result and I know people who got that score and got into their first preferences for a course that had a UAI of 87 to get in. I think you’ll 100% for sure get your 3rd preference at ACU, and you’ll probably...

As above, Sydney Uni. Sydney Uni also teach the Irish language (Gaelic)
