I didn't apply for any (not for lack of trying, but I just didn't find any that I had a realistic shot at or were suitable for me).

Is it true that u can only hold one scholarship ?
It's as sikhman said. You can hold as many scholarships as you want, so long as the requirements of one does not interfere with the requirement of another.

For eg: I cannot hold both co-op and another scholarship that includes work placement during the summer holidays because co-op requires work placement at the same time. However, i can hold one of the two along with scientia, AAA, malcolm chaikin etc etc :)

But some scholarships like the RTA you can't have anything aside from the RTA one "except with the permission of the Dean of the Faculty of Engineering and the RTA." So usually you can have multiple scholarships so long as they don't interfere with each other unless there's a restriction with one of the scholarships.

i was going to apply for a usyd scholarship, had written out half of the personal statement, filled in the forms etc, and then got depressed with my trial marks, decided i wasn't going to get one, and just didn't send it in.

stupidest decision of my life. because every science scholarship goes off that application. fml. or i'm basically just an idiot.

By the way, if anyone is wondering no one can log into the UNSW Co-op site right now, so don't panic if you can't either!

I don't know anyone who's applied and got a notification by UNSW yet. On the Co-op site is says, do not contact UNSW before Midnight 12th October.
