Gateway Offers and AAA UNSW (1 Viewer)

[xibu34]

Does anybody know if the gateway offer or AAA scholarship "expires" at some point, do I need to accept my offer today ? I was thinking of waiting until December round 2 but if it is time limited I will accept now. Does anybody know ??

You don’t need to do anything for AAA you just get it if you get accepted into the course and go there

I was told on the phone that you can’t claim both AAA and go through the gateway pathway, you can only choose one.

No idea, It was actually pretty disappointing that they would not let me double up because of a "technicality" and it shows that they really care about the $$$ most.
