hey peeps i have a problem
since main round offers come out on the 19th of Jan, when do we have to enrol for the courses we get accepted into? cos im overseas and will be until mid feb, but i authorised my sister to act on my behalf except she'll be overseas from jan8th-31st.. so i think im kinda screwed..
are there other ways to enrol ?

im hoping to get accepted into UNSW

thanks heaps

for enrolment, you are assigned a date and time when to go in and enrol. but i remember someone saying about unsw that you can enrol online. so you might be in luck! anyone from unsw want to clear this up?

also check out this site: http://www.student.unsw.edu.au/academiclife/enrolment/

 

[Minai]

The actual link to accepting your offer and enrolling into classes online is here: http://my.unsw.edu.au
So if u get into UNSW, i think u'll be ok

Extract from the site:
COMING SOON for Session 1, 2004 commencing students.
If you have an offer to study a UNSW degree program, commencing in session 1, 2004 you will soon be able to accept your offer and enrol in classes online. For information about this new service and to check if you are eligible to use it, please click here

[crazylilmonkee]

[jlh]

Here's a question. I might not be here when i have to enrol, so I want someone to act on my behalf. But i didn't/haven't sent in the Supp. Form A or whatever it is. So is it too late? Or can I still get someone to enrol/accept my offer for me? And if I can, where do I get the form from, because I lost my uac book?

 

[babydoll_]

The form in the UAC book, Supp Form A, was to authorise someone to deal with UAC for you.
The closing date for this was 30 September, then after that they needed a late fee. Call UAC after Christmas.
To enrol at the unis, you need to sign a form authorising someone to act for you, called a proxy form.
UTS: http://www.sau.uts.edu.au/forms/SAU_authoritytoenrol.pdf
USYD: http://www.usyd.edu.au/studentcentre/forms/proxyform2004.pdf
UNSW, however, requires you to enrol completely online: http://www.my.unsw.edu.au
And I'm not sure about MQ... hope this helps

Contact UAC for the exact details on this - I suggest u phone them after the Xmas break

do the other university allow online enrollments besides UNSW? like UTS? USYD? and MAQ? i'm currently oversea too....

 

[deyveed]

If I have a high enough UAI for my 3rd and 4th preferences, will they send out offers for both? or just the 3rd?
This is because i'm still deciding whether to do my 3rd or 4th preference.
If they only give me a 3rd preference and i decide that i want to do my 4th preference, is there time to make changes?

I dont think so...UNSW has only just implemented online enrolment for 2004 students (but u'd think UTS would too)

U only get ur 3rd pref, not 4th
and there is time to make changes (ie change preferences and then wait for a late round offer) but thats extremely unlikely to happen (especially if ur 4th preference is a popular course, meaning there wont be any places available in the late round)

So I called UAC, and they said if I want someone to accept an offer on my behalf, then I have to organise it with the universities themselves, and not UAC. Is this right? From those forms it looks like they're only for enrolment. Also, do we accept offers through the internet? oh, and can we accept right after we receive the offer?

So I also tried calling the universities, but they're all closed it seems. I'm thinking January 5th would be the date when I can get all this stuff organised then, which is a bit of a pain. And with UNSW, because its online, anyone can really do it for me if I'm not here, right?

Well, ring the appropriate uni's on the 5th of Jan and ask
u accept offers online, but im not sure about all the uni's
and no, u cant accept wen u get the offer - usually, in the letter of offer, there are details and a timetable of wen different degree's have their enrolment days (late jan/early feb uisually)

UNSW - if u get an offer from there, then ur problems will be solved, coz yes, u can accept ur offer and also enrol online (be warned, wen accepting ur offer at UNSW, u have to pay a deposit - which is creditied to your student account later)

Oh wait, do you mean we can't accept the offer or we can't enrol? I know enrolment is later, but i was asking if we could accept the offer, say on the 19th itself.

Thanks.

oh whoops, sorry for the confusion
yes u can accept ur offer from 19th online

I am unsure about other uni's, but here is some info if u intend to study at UNSW:

- Main Round offers (19 January 2004): You MUST accept your offer by 17:00 (Sydney time) Friday 23 January 2004.

- Accepting your UAC Offer

If you have been made an offer to study a degree program at UNSW or the College of Fine Arts (COFA), commencing in Session One 2004, you will be able to use the myUNSW online service to accept, request deferment or decline your offer. All students commencing in Session One 2004 are required to pay a deposit to confirm their acceptance. Local students are required to pay $250.

 

[Dingo]

just make sure you pick your preferences by jan 5th 2004.
and the rest is up to you. use your brains
call up uac, run around in little circles in your room and scream.
just do something ...
LOL

peace^^
