Well to cut it short, I've been overseas the past few weeks and forgot all about offers and such.

I received an ATAR of 49.2 and did not receive any offers during round 1 or 2.

Is it too late to sign up for the supplementary round? Am I able to call up universities and request a placement?

I am still not too sure about what I want to do so any suggestions would also be great. With my score would any accounting courses be available?

Thanks a lot!

I know La Trobe has accounting for ~50 in Bendigo. Guess it depends where you live? Where were you hoping to study mate?

Unfortunately, it is too late to do anything through VTAC.  But, depending on what you want to study, it would be best to contact the university directly to see if there are any options still available for you.

Some unis might still have vacancies although it would be difficult to get into anything at the moment if your score is below the cut-off. i.e. you are best to enquire about courses which require a 49.2 or lower. As mentioned above, you would need to contact the uni directly. It might also be worth looking into plan B, whether that be TAFE or mid-year entry to uni.

I think TAFE would be the best option, and if you want to do accounting maybe you could do that through RMIT?

Unlikely to respond to any PMs these days.

You could try for something at MIBT (say, commerce) and then transfer to Deakin?

Hope it turns out alright :)
