Is anyone considering studying at a uni in a state other than nsw? is it generally harder to get into a uni in another state because the students from that state have preference? i'm just curious!

thats prolly true for most courses. mon ami does med at monash. since entry into med depends on other things besides the uai (like umat n interview), local students dont get preference . it only depends on how good u r.

I dont think it is?
cos the UAI is equivalent to the other states TER (from the UAC guide), so if u get the UAI, ur in, no preferences to local students

But some states are smarter than others! (In general) :p :D :p :D

but when ure applying to other states, ure not applying thru UAC or similar, r u? which rules out the possibility of 'direct entry' .....

just to clarify, i'm looking into Vet Science/Animal Science... and i'm thinking that if i don't get in to Sydney Uni there might be places at either UWQ, UVIC or UQ, (uwa for zoology or animal, the other two for vet sci.)
i know that i'll then have to probably pay for college too... but if it means that i'll get into the course straight away...
anyway - so i'm guessing from what u guys have said, i just need to get the entrance mark (uai) for the course (it's direct entry, no things like UMAT)
