How does Access Melbourne work?

[FitzUnknown]

Hello, so I have Melbourne down as my first preference and I'm just wondering how and when I will be notified, if I do receive the Access Melbourne scholarship.
(Bachelor of Arts--well it's my 2nd preference, but the 1st is the chancellor's program which I have no hope for )

My ATAR is 93.65, which is hopefully a clearly-in, but I am eligible for a couple of categories for SEAS and did apply.
From reading the website I think that is all you have to do to be considered, but I'd appreciate it if anyone can confirm this

Also, I'll really appreciate it anyone does receive it and is willing to let me know.
Otherwise I guess we'll just wait for 18 January to come?
Thanks, whoever is reading this!

The clearly in for Bachelor of Arts is 90.05

Are you referring to the Access Melbourne Scholarship or simply the Access Melbourne scheme by which you can gain entry into your course below the clearly-in? Your post refers to both, and it's important to note that they are separate concepts.

Yes they are Thankfully my atar was enough to get me in, so now I am only wondering about the scholarship part
Would you be able to provide me with any info at all? Thanks a lot

If it's any indication, I was eligible for both financial disadvantage and rural background (and potentially difficult circumstances) but couldn't manage to get one. I believe they've all been offered now, so if you haven't got one yet, it's unlikely you will later.

Unfortunately you basically need an ATAR of 99+, it seems. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but congratulations on getting into your course! That's a huge achievement in its own right.

I qualified for financial disadvantage and being from an underrepresented school, and got an offer with a mid 90s atar, but I also know a few people who've been in similar circumstances who were offered one with an atar in the low 80s.

Hmm...that's what I was thinking, but I wanted someone to confirm since I really have no idea about the competition etc.
Thanks for bearing the news I've been waiting for! And it's not that bad, I'm happy I got in at all  Thanks!

Do you mean you both got the scholarship?
Those two are my categories too
