My dream university is Uni of sydney. I was wondering if anyone has any good tips especially if you go there or are familiar with it. I currently take A level Literature, History and Psychology and would like to go on to take A Bachelor of Arts, maybe a double degree. My grades are pretty good, and i have a bunch of credible extracurriculurs, especially related to the courses i wanna take. Im worried about scholarships/financial aid, because while they have pretty good ones, I'm not sure theyll be enough. And if they won't be I can't afford to study there 😦 Does anyone have any tips on extracurriculurs i can do in the meantime or programs i can participate in, what i should include in my applications to increase my chances of getting a higher percentage scholarship?

Good choice cause they give kangaroo plushi and skittles

#

And it'll be expensive, it takes like 4 to 5k per week for a single studio apartment (ofc it's for me cause I can't live with other ppl), plus living cost and tuition will get around....a lot, and

#

Wait, brb

#

Getting financial aid is gonna be difficult

#

For that, you can either apply for interest free loan, or work part time......both of which aren't suitable due to the hectic schedule

#

Also, you'll have a high degree of acceptance if you have a good ielts result (based on which they'll also likely give u scholarship), so in the meantime

#

Get a job

#

Collect some ap

#

Yeah and since you're not going to study mechatronics and stuff, it should be pretty easy

Good luck bro, maybe I'll coincidentally see you there one day, who knows

#

Also, unless ur exceptionally talented, they won't offer much of scholarships to international students, the local aussis can study for 3 to 4 k, but for int, it's different

#

Its their main form of profit afterall
