First, second and third round offers & tranfering (1 Viewer)

[Nick1993]

Hey I just wanted to know what's the deal with theses round offers? I got 74.45 and the course I wanted to do at Mac (eBusiness) requires 74.10, someone told me there's a chance I can't get in? Also I was wondering if anyone knows how long it takes to transfer between courses in Macq I want to transfer to Business Administration (Required 84.6).

taht person is wrong :S the cut off might change, but bonus points on top of your atar is enough and to transfer to business admin i beleive takes a minimum of one year and the necesary marks to transfer.

Yes, there is a chance that you won't be given a first round offer for that course. We don't know the cutoff for 2012, as that given cutoff was for last year. It could increase, it could decrease. Even with bonus points, it may not be enough because we don't know the cutoff.

True, i get a bonus 2 because i got a b5 in ipt, will it change drastically or just a little bit

You'll be pushing it, but I reckon you should get an offer.

I would advise you to try and maintain a distinction average to ensure that you can transfer in a year's time. Also pick units which can be directly credited to the requirements on Business Admin.

We don't know - it will depend on supply and demand.

If there are 200 places in the course and 200 people, with an ATAR over 90, have that as their first preference then the cut-off will be over 90 but if it takes UAC down to ATAR's of 50 to fill the course then the cut-off will become 50 this year.

Oh ok well that atar has been roughly 70-75 the past couple of years so im quite confident also anyone know when the first second and third round offers are? Thanks alot for your help!

This year is different to other years. Just wait and see. Reading the article below explains why I suggest you wait
