30 September
For anyone wanting to apply for undergraduate study in 2025, we encourage you to complete and pay for your
application before midnight on 30 September, when the processing charge increases. Once you’ve applied,
you can change your preferences as many times as you like, no charge!
Pathways to Your Dream Degree
Applying for uni next year but worried that you won’t meet the ATAR requirements for your dream degree? Most
institutions offer pathway options for applicants who don't meet the standard entry criteria for their courses.
Often, you’ll be able to find a different avenue into the course you’re aiming for.
If you don’t get an offer into your chosen degree because you haven’t met the required lowest selection rank,
you could start an alternative undergraduate course with a lower entry rank. Once you’ve successfully
completed the first year of that degree, and have results that will improve your selection rank, you can then
apply again for the degree you really want. (See how to transfer to a different degree.)

University of Sydney Biology, Chemistry, Physics & Mathematics Bridging Courses
Bridging courses are open to everyone. You don't need to be commencing study at the University to register for
a bridging course.
The bridging courses run in January/February and registration is now open.
If you do not have the assumed knowledge for your course, we strongly recommend that you undertake
bridging studies. Otherwise, you might find it difficult to manage the work, as your lecturer will assume you are
familiar with this area of study. Bridging courses are also useful if you struggled with the subject in high school,
or need a refresher. Bridging courses do not provide you with enrolment qualifications or satisfy prerequisites
for degrees within the University of Sydney

University of Sydney ARTiculate Drama | Giving shape to the world of a play: Getting started with set
design
7 November
Theatre, above all, is a spatial artform. It’s about defining the relationship and energy flow between audience
and performer; it’s putting ideas into space; it’s finding a physical form to convey the emotional landscape of a
play. In this webinar, we are delighted to host award-winning set and costume designer, Isabel Hudson, who
will be in conversation with Dr Paul Dwyer from the Discipline of Theatre and Performance Studies. We’ll look
at a couple of Isabel’s beautiful finished designs, analysing key steps in the process through which they were
developed and how they support the overall vision of the play. Then we’ll talk about perhaps the hardest part:
how do you even begin? What should you be looking for on the first read of whatever play you select from the
HSC Drama prescribed texts? How do you find those first few sparks of a concept/vision? How do you stretch
and test your ideas with the goal of executing a design that’s original, inventive, coherent and practical? While
our focus is on set design, the underlying principles are, of course, also directly relevant to other HSC Drama
Individual Projects in Design (e.g. costume and lighting) and Critical Analysis (e.g. director’s folio and portfolio
of theatre criticism).

UCAT Early Interview Training
Every year we meet a lot of students expressing their regret and disappointment for leaving Interview
preparation until the actual period when the interview offers are made. The big issue with this is that quite often
there is simply not enough time for adequate preparation between the time when the interview offers are made
and the actual interview date.
Just as with the UCAT, we cannot stress enough that students cannot underestimate the medical interview or
take it too lightly. Furthermore, it is a highly competitive forum where the student will be assessed against
other candidates who have not only aimed as hard to achieve their goals but are also just as sincere and
strong-minded in their desire to be interviewed successfully.
