Will keep that in mind. I also want to ask about scholarships. I've been told to apply for them. I've always had the thought that scholarships are for those small percentage of people who are freakishly smart (looking at everyone here). Is it worth applying if you're say, an average student? I wouldn't think of myself as somebody who stands out.
There are different scholarships at different Universities for things outside of academia too, remember! Applying for scholarships can be a lengthy process, so purely out of the intention to not waste your time - make sure you meet the requirements before embarking on the mission of paperwork! I've seen scholarships for low income, overcoming adversity in High School, "All-rounder," excelling in a particular subject/area, etc. There are definitely scholarships for the cream of the academic crop, but there's lots of other ones too. You'll never know if you'll receive one if you don't fill out the form
Jamon will likely have more wisdom on this, though! I didn't apply for any scholarships, I wasn't eligible for any at UTS.
