What are our options if we fail? I'm not saying you would but in general

What are the options for someone who's original ambition was for Business Or Law degrees, but didn't make the cut off because of the high uai requirement, is there life over OR are there other good pathways

Post up... (exclude enter a different course & transfer option please)

EDIT: Course, i need broader options

I'm unsure if I can get into the uni courses I want. So I've applied for Tafe and I think I'd enjoy it. I've applied for a fine arts course and although the course is expensive, it's hands-on and the modules for the course look quite exciting.

You could do something like arts for a year and transfer. I'm unsure about the time - it varies with different unis..I'm guessing that they'd generally be a year until you could transfer. Could you wait that long?

omg that would be so fun!! but wouldn't you have to do like a horticulture/landscape design type course and a media course before you could get into something like that?

That's like me. I applied for journalism at uni, but I don't think i've done so well in the HSC so I applied for a News Media course at Tafe. There's always loopholes.

why are you asking for different ways around things if you say dont include a different course or transfer... how else do you expect to get around things..
obviously if you dont get into the course you want you do something else at that uni with a lower uai and then see if you can transfer or go to a uni like UWS which has lower uai's for the course you want and then try to transfew to the uni you want..
if you want to do something really badly you wouldnt care how you get there as long as you get there in the end

all I can contribute is that the thing you really want, one day you will get....

I found that out in year 10 after continued persistence and determination
