Getting a little anxious if I'm being honest - is there any chance of getting offers from lower preferences? Because I put Monash Undergrad Medicine as my first two preferences even though I'm 99% not getting in, and because of that will it cause me to get no offers at all? Since they can't give me my first and second preference? (or even my third? dangit dad for telling me to put La Trobe Dent even though I don't meet the ATAR requirement?)

^ no the order of your preferences don’t matter.

If we receive an offer, should we lower that particular preference down to last?
People do this if they haven’t really decided what degree they want to do. If you get the offer you want then there’s no point. If you get your third preference and still want a shot at getting your first or second preference then you don’t need to do this. If you get your third preference but are still undecided between your third and fourth preference then moving your third to the bottom after you’ve gotten it gives you a chance of also getting an offer to that fourth preference which means you’ll have more time to decide between them.

Can we change our units after we enrol? It says I need to select my units now and I haven't done any research.

Bachelor of medical imaging at Deakin.

Also, how long does it usually take for the institution to contact you with the instructions for enrolment?

Have had a bunch of friends receive offers. I'm definitely above my clearly in for law/commerce. Are offers slowly just rolling out or have I missed it? Overseas rn and this feels quite nerve racking.

Occupational Therapy at Deakin!  I'm really happy that I got into this course but mainly relieved that I got into uni at all :)

Also, how long does it usually take for the institution to contact you with the instructions for enrolment?

I would also like to know.

You can usually change up until census date (normally March but check your unis calendar). But yeah you should definitely be able to change your units up until classes start at least.

Also, how long does it usually take for the institution to contact you with the instructions for enrolment?
Would expect it later today. If you don’t get it tomorrow at the latest I’d contact them.

You need to accept & enrol. There should be instructions in your email, if not you’ll get a second email.

Yeah just wait for it. Don’t worry it doesn’t lapse that quickly - I let mine lapse last year and got about 3 reminder emails haha (not saying you should let it go that long though).

If I understand the system correctly, you should be able to bump up the UniMelb preference and still receive an offer for that, whilst retaining the Monash offer you received today. That way you've got extra time to make a decision.

I'm in the same position and I'm kind of panicking. Does this mean I did something wrong in my registration?

Now that it's after 2, you should be able to log into your vtac account and see any offers you have there.

I received no offers :(. Is the December round only reserved for students who completed yr 12 in 2019?
Thank you in advance.

Hi there, just received my offer. I've checked my VTAC and this link might help:
http://vtac.edu.au/dates.html

I think non-year 12 applicants receive offers in Jan. Good luck!

The anxiety was high all morning but ultimately I got Bachelor of Vision Science/Master of Optometry at Deakin (Geelong)!

I'm really happy with that, I was terrified of not getting an offer at all :) I'm still tossing between this degree and Biomed/Science degrees at Monash and Melbourne, since Geelong is pretty far away for me and means I'll need student accomodation, but overall I'm grateful for the offer!

They normally don't start sending them until 2pm at the earliest. Give it some time :)

You could rearrange your preferences to allow for the possibility of getting a different offer in Jan if you want more time to decide.

If the other courses you want are higher in your preferences than the offer you've already gotten then yes you can still get offers from them (you can change your preferences to make this work if needed).

Can’t remember, but I think they came separately. They can be offered any time between now and late March, from memory.

Not sure what’s going on, although the influx of students might mean that the acceptance/ enrolment system at UoM isn’t coping too well. Would probably give it another try later tonight or early tomorrow, when things would’ve calmed down. Otherwise, try contacting Melbourne Uni (usually Stop 1) for help. They should have a contact number/ address somewhere for you.

Bachelor of Engineering and Commerce at Monash. Anyone know how to enrol into the DipLang?
Pretty sure you’ll have to talk to Monash Connect, the Arts faculty student services or your managing faculty to get that started.
