Title: Guaranteed entry to graduate courses
Post by: emiinaaa on January 23, 2013, 11:08:31 pm

Does anyone know if there are exceptions to the 96.00 ATAR rule of receiving guaranteed entry to some post-graduate courses? For example, coming from an under-represented school and having an ATAR of 95.90..

I did some digging and I was in the same position as you. I heard they MIGHT accept those slightly under, the probability is fairly low but there is a chance. :D
