Okay, I need some advice.
I was fortunate enough to obtain an ATAR of 96.55, as well as obtaining acceptance into both the "Vice-Chancellor's Access Monash" program and the "Access Melbourne" scholarship, ostensibly for Monash and Melbourne Universities respectively.
My first preference is currently Biomed.Science/Science double degree at Monash (clearly in 94.15), which I've qualified for both through my ATAR and prereqs, as well as through the Access Monash. The Access Monash awards me between $1000 and $1,500, as well as guaranteed entrance into the above course.
On the flipside, Access Melbourne offers me guaranteed entry to their Biomed course as well as $13,500 over the course of the degree. However, I cannot undertake the double degree that I want at Melbourne.
Ordinarily, it wouldn't be an issue, but due to my current financial situation, the extra money would be a massive help.
What should I do? Are there any other important factors that I should consider when making this decision?
