Hey guys,

Do you think if someone went to a school ranked about ~180, and was eligible for disadvantaged school for EAS, they'd be able to get into Law at UNSW/USyd with a 97 ATAR?

Yes - EAS is your friend

My friend got 97.25 (or something close to that, can't remember the exact value), and she got into the Arts/Law dual degree @UNSW

Can confirm, this was the same for me.

You'll actually find about 1/4 of the law cohort are ACCESS scheme students, unsw mentioned it in a press release.

With this EAS... how many bonus points are you able to get? Or what is the average?

What's EAS
Educational Acesss Scheme - if you've suffered disadvantage ie. Going to a shit school, had a disturbed schooling, had a poor family life etc

Variously significantly and it's very hard to work out as some uni's don't disclose this info (UNSW). UTS allocates 10 points for anyone with EAS.

If you want to become a lawyer, why wouldn't you consider other universities? With those marks you could study at G08 universities outside NSW and VIC. If you're that desperate, you could transfer in to Sydney or New South Wales if you do well in your first year.

Hi guys,

So if someone got an atar of 90 and want to go to UTS to study law can they get into it, as they are eligible for EAS?

Also, what about Macquarie University, how many bonus point it give for students who are eligible for EAS? (Law degree)

Yep. I have a handful of friends who got into UTS law with 87-88 atar + the 10 EAS points.

I thought it'd be way over 1/2 at unsw

EAP bonus points no longer accepted from 2017 at NSW. Still available at Sydney and other Unis but you'll need to be a professional sportsperson or represent AUS. Can't recall her name but an Olympian hurdler was accepted into Medicine.
