well the uni is closed until the 5th of jan, so i would wait until then, then contact the scholarships officer or whoever

we got emails for our scholarships, so i guess international would be the same, but i'm nopt sure

just wait a week i guess...

Technically I'm vietnamese and have already applied for permanent passport for like seven years now. But I was born and lived in Russia for ten years before I moved here. SO pretty diverse background. =)

You can call me a "Russo-Vietnamese-Australian" I guess.

That's awesome! Congrats on your offer, btw.

Haha thanks!

Can I briefly ask something about this scholarship?

Would you have much better chance of getting the Scholarship if your UAI is like 99.90+?

It seems to me all the people who got this scholarship got like 99.90+ UAI...

Did anyone get this Scholarship where their UAI just cut above 99?

 

[Pwnage101]

well the criteria is UAI > 98.50, but not sure if they're looking for way higher than that...

only apporx 10 are given out, so it's pretty competitive
