I got a scholarship from Monash, the Monash Scholarship for Excellence.  It's no HECS fees and $6k a year.  It's only applicable if I do get an offer from Monash though, and because I applied for med, I might not get it.

But I also called the UoM people and they are offering me some National Scholarship which is no HECS and $5k a year, so win-win I guess :D

God I'm so deliriously happy.

Which UoM scholarships are you talking about? Access or National or another scholarship I never heard of?

I remember that my Melb Access scholarship offer arrived on the same day as the ENTERs coming out. And the Monash one arrived the next day.

This is a quote from the Scholarships website

-achieve an ENTER or equivalent of 99.9 or above (or be an indigenous student with an ENTER of 90.0 or above); and
-complete an Australian Year 12 or the IB in 2008; and
-apply for a place in a course offered at the University of Melbourne in 2009 through VTAC and satisfy the prerequisite studies for your nominated course; and
not have undertaken any previous study at tertiary level excluding TAFE and extension studies undertaken as part of a Year 12 program; and
-be an Australian citizen or permanent resident, or a New Zealand citizen, or hold a permanent humanitarian visa

I didn't get invited 2 a ceremony last year XD
Cab would have cost them a fair bit tho, in my case ;D

And wot's with all these messages? I actually received a phone call... how strange.

Oh, and really, u shouldn't turn down any scholarship offer IMO.
Even if u don't think u're gonna do that course, u should try 2 leave doors open.

I had my heart set on UoM this time last year (and my ENTER made my hopes a reality - I had a guaranteed spot as a KLDYS).
I hadn't even considered Monash until I was offered the scholarship.
My initial reaction was more like "Wow!! Thank-you!!!" 2 the lady on the phone when my thoughts in my head were more like "I'm not even gonna g2 Monash anywayz..."
The scholarship was tempting enuf 2 change my mind tho, and Monash really is a good university.
I didn't think I would enjoy studying there, but I do quite like it.
