Careers News
Year 12
University early offers are now being made to students. I ask that students follow instructions and keep an eye on their emails so as not to miss deadlines for accepting offers and changing preferences. Remember too that university is not the only or the best option for many students.
Any students who need advice regarding University are asked to contact UAC or the University they wish to attend directly to get advice on changing preferences for the main round of December offers before Christmas as I will not be in the country to assist you.
Here are some valuable resources to help students and parents during the December - January period along with the UAC book which was given to all Year 12 students. It has detailed explanations of offers, preferences and rounds.
