I got in the 90's and I was originally just doing B. Comm. when I applied 4 it, which meant I was eligible. But now, coz I am doing LLB/Comm I can't suddenly get it.

Like what is the diff. between courses. LLB/Comm wasn't on the list of courses.
But yet Comm is and so is LLB/Business

Silly aye? Like I get that obviously i applied for it under a diff. degree, but even so, i couldn't have applied in the first place if i was doing llb/comm but why?

Because of demand or lack of ppl doing a certain course or something

i did not get it and my uai was in the 90s and was one of those courses on the list

It's likely that it is based on the highest UAI, I bet those who got in the high nineties UAI in law got the scholarship.

 

[LaraB]

maybe they allocate a certain number for each course and then its the highest x number in each course that get it..

not just the highest uai's oiverall..

coz that would explain why people with 80's got em when people with 90's didnt

Unsucessful in getting the scholarship. Bastards.

[porkchopz]

[LaraB]

peopl doing law degrees arent eligible i dont think

no - some are some aren't... eg bus law was but comm law wasnt

Oops, I actually forgot to sms or e-mail for registration. Ah well, can't cry over spilt milk.
