Griffith Griffith Medicine: Medical Science/MD Provisional Entry Q&A

Hi guys, is it possible that USC ATAR threshold will be higher than both of Griffith's campuses, because I only applied for USC and not Griffith and my IB came out to be 44 ( ATAR 99.75), which was very unexpected. Fingers crossed USC requirements do not jump to 99.80.

It's possible but quite unlikely, you should be fine
 
Does anyone know the number of places available for med at the Nathan campus? I similarly got an IB 44/99.75 atar which was last year’s minimum requirement for entry. Do I have a likely chance of getting in?

Yes, you are likely to receive a place offer at Nathan.
 
I feel like the ATAR requirements for Griffith are going to shoot up this year because IB went easy with their grade boundaries and 27 students from my IB school alone received an ATAR of 99.75+.

That is possible but it's very difficult to predict grade cut-offs and also using a single school as an example is a bit of a stretch , Griffith's cut-off would have easily been 99.95-99.90 if enough of these applicants applied but clearly they don't and Griffith Dent over offered in the end which I feel Griffith Med might do
 
Hi, I have been offered the place and have to enroll by 17/01. Just wondering whether I can enrol and later on cancel. When would be the deadline to cancel the enrolment?
I would like to wait to see for other offers.

Thanks

Deadline to cancel will be census date (though we encourage cancellation well before then so the offer can go to the next on the list in a timely manner).

Hello guys, I am just wondering to secure a spot at Griffith, do we only have to enrol for the first trimester? or do we have to enrol for the entire year? Thank you
 
Guys griffith med ATAR cutoff was 99.85, just saw from an asian news source. So yeah if you got 99.75-99.80 (the lowest selection rank on their website) you wouldn't have gotten an offer unfortunately. This year I guess it was more competitive and IB kids/ high-scoring atar kids who wanted to do med inflated the standards.

Best luck to other med uni offers everyone!
