Title: So are we supposed to be expecting some calls?
Post by: gta007 on December 15, 2008, 08:58:35 am: My friends tells me, if you get a decent, high enough ENTER, some unis will call you up and send a cab to your place. :idiot2:

(That's me!)

Well... they did but it was crappy...

Oh, and it doesn't really matter wot preference # it is I don't think.
With that Monash scholarship, it doesn't matter wot course u do (so it covered my 1st & 3rd prefs).

Post by: duchess on December 16, 2008, 11:17:47 am: i attended the monash scholarship ceremony yesterday, it was so sudden! gave me a call less than two hours out from when it started in the city. the lady told me she'll send a limo to my place... but it was an ordinary car. ahahahaha.

i got a message earlier with a scholarship offer from deakin. came home to check my email and found it. then found another two emails from the same lady with one stating that she's 'recalling' my email and then another to say that 'the content of the email was correct but the way it was sent meant that your email may have been visible to others' i was... um... -raise eyebrows?-

a lady at the monash ceremony said that melbournes holidng a similiar event later in the week. so has anyone received scholarships from melbourne yet or will it be another sudden thing?
