I am sure about this....last year sydney uni sent me a letter.....dear lex blah blah blah your application for EAS has been sucessful your application may allow u to enter courses even tho your uai is slightly below required entry blah blah please be aware the EAS does not apply for camperdown and darlington campuses

When did you get this letter? cos i reckon it would be really nice to know what "deal" they're going to do for me before results and uais come out - but i don't like my chances!!

i have applied under the illness/learning disability one for my ADD but i was denied special provisions for the exams because apparently i am just too damn smart.... do you rekkon these guys'll dogg me too?

I applied for special provisions (extra time to write and rest) for a medical condition that I've had since birth which has required frequent surgery, so I can't write very fast. They denied me the extra writing time because my "writing sample was too neat" and the content was "too capable" - well I like you, I didn't apply because of intelligence, and so what if I've made a conscious effort over the past 13 years to ensure that my writing is neat? I wouldn't worry about the EAS - it wouldn't take much for these guys to have more sense than the special provisions people!
btw - the people I do the HSC with all have extra writing time, and while yesterday they all filled more than one booklet per question, I was on one - how is that fair??

Um im not sure if it is too late even tho applications were due in last month.

I suggest u give UAC a call on (02) 97520200 and tell them about the circumstances.

thanx blue chameleon
i called BOS and talked to them n it was due in on 20th but i got an extension till 31st
do u think i can get anything 4 my circumstances?

 

[blue_chameleon]

Yeh id b very surprised if u didnt consideration for the circumstances u were put in. I actually applied for EAS for medical reasons and when i was reading through the booklet i saw they had consideration for all of the areas u mentioned u had.

The degree of the circumstances is what determines how much considersation u will get, but id think with all those areas that ud get a fair bit.

 

[Pirri]

Alright cheers
I dont wanna sound like a whinger but it ahsnt been that easy
and do i have 2 applications of EAS into each uni i apply 4?

 

[blue_chameleon]

No u only need the one application and u just send it 2 UAC.

 

[Pirri]
