Bonus points for disadvantaged school (1 Viewer)

[Kriyo]

Hey guys just wondering how many points do we generally get if we attend a disadvantaged school?
And does UNSW offer bonus points for attending one of these schools?

Around 2-3

Well, no official source.

I received the full 10 (or close to 10) points at UNSW. Otherwise, I wouldn't receive a UNSW scholarship for "severe disadvantage".
I submitted evidence for 3 disadvantages to UAC. Disadvantaged school environment is one of them. The other two were low-income and family member with illness.

You can guess how many points I got for each disadvantage. UNSW caps the total EAS points you can receive at 10. But who knows how many EAS points each disadvantage is worth. Maybe 5... I don't know.

Well OP was mainly asking for a disadvantaged school, and from research I did previously it's fair to say you would be getting about 2-3 points. However, the more a course is demand the less lenient they are with giving points usually. Obviously there isn't an official source, but its generally around this range. Considering your other two codes were for family member with illness and low-income, it's not a surprise that you would be receiving close to 10

There are a couple of different schemes you could apply for. They have a page with more info and a calculator:

You can also get bonus points for being a high level athlete... and a few other things I think.

Unlikely you will ever be told that information, and it's information that should never be released.
