Hi,

Im currently doing Business and Commerce in UWS, unfortunately I lost interest in it and have decided to choose a science based course seeing as science is somewhat more interesting to me. Anyway, I put my form through for a mid year transfer. My question is; are unis bias more towards internal transfers? Eg/ i want to do Radiography but its not available for mid year admission, if i choose to transfer to USYD B Science rather than UWS B Science am I more likely to get the transfer next year if Im doing B Science in USYD seeing as its in the same faculty as Radiography? or is it just GPA based? Also how do I find out the NSRL cut off?


Thanks for your help :)

All i can say is that NSRL cut-offs aren't published, and the unis will be a bitch if you ask them. That said, NRSL are usually lower than school leaver cut-offs.

So all I need to do is get a good GPA in ANY course, whether relevant or not towards what Id like to do next year and Ill still be able to get in if its sufficient?


Thanks again

I applied to get OUT of radiography via internal transfer right before the cutoff date and they didn't even check my GPA. I guess luck helps

if you have a better gpa than someone from that uni wanting to transfer in, theyll probably take you. Just cus you go to the uni doesnt make them lower the entry requirements
