Preference Mistake!!

[FreshFish]

so that means, if i dont accept my 1st offer and fail for my irregular offer. im doomed? LOL

[QuantumJG]

btw FreshFish, if you don't mind me asking? What is your first preference and your third preference?

[FreshFish]

1st is Construction management and 3rd is Civil Eng.
I really wanted CM, however change of mind and now i really want Civil

[QuantumJG]

Damn that's really annoying!

If the worst case scenario happens, accept your offer (do NOT decline an offer) and try and change over to civil engineering (I'm assuming both courses are at the same institution).

Anyway, try for that irregular offer.

do we accept the offer on the spot or is there a certain day where we accept and enroll.
I have a slight problem, ill be going on a vaction from this saturday till tuesday. If im not given a place in civil, would it be latee if i give my irregular offer form in wednesday? Thats the only problem im having. What if i wait till wednesday and theres no available room left for the course?

You can always wait until Round 2 and then the Supplementary Rounds but there's no guarantee you'll get a place.

You will be sent a package by the university that has offered you a place.  You can accept the offer by going online and then attending the enrolment day.  If you do not turn up to enrolment day, the university assumes that you have rejected the offer.

Don't worry.  The enrolment dates are usually a week after the 18th - that's what I was told by the VTAC representative today.  And with regards to the Irregular Offer form, each institution has different closing dates so I would check with the respective institution for more details.

I wont be home till the 19th. Ill be away, so does that leave me with time to get an irregular offer ?? Or shall i skip camp this year and go to the uni asap on monday to apply for an irregular? i spoke with a rep from RMIT and they said not to worry as you still would have time.

Don't worry.  Getting home a day after round 1 is released isn't going to hinder your process that much.  After round 1, if you are still absolutely adamant that an Irregular Offer is the way to go, then just log in to MyInfo, download the form and fill it out.  Then ring the selection officer for the course at RMIT and ask them if they are willing to take you in.
