JMP JMP: General Entry Discussion

Hi, this is a dumb question, but if I received an unbonded offer for une, is it possible to receive one for uon next round?

No, you will only be made one offer (if any). Successful swaps between campuses are unheard of here at MSO, despite multiple people attempting them. It is possible for a bonded offer to be ‘upgraded’ to an unbonded offer at some universities, I can’t remember if JMP is one of the unis that does this.
 
Course Type: Med
Offer Received: Yes
University (and campus if relevant): UoN Callaghan (the internal system doesn’t work right now so I can’t see if I’m at Gosford)
Other Information: Intending to accept, hoping that I get put in Gosford (unless those people already have been selected)

We’ve had reports of people being allocated to Gosford directly, so perhaps not, unfortunately. Unless it’s info you can only access from the internal system that isn’t working (fingers crossed). Historically, changes between UNE and UoN have been basically unheard of here, but I’m not sure if that’s the same for Callaghan and Gosford as they’re both at the same Uni (and it’s the first year). Good luck!
 
hey everyone! i’m from sydney and moving up to newcastle next month for uni haha so i was just wondering if anyone from sydney would be down to make friends? just dm me!!
I don’t think my score is high enough yet to DM so I guess I’ll introduce myself here! I’m james, if we have an on campus introduction you’ll probably meet because I can be quite loud. I’m moving from clinsci at MQ and excited to start!

Oh well looks like I’m going to college hahaha
 
Hi everyone,

Watching the offers data forum there are lots of UNE and very few UoN offers. Could be coincidental of course but is surprising (to me at least); 60 spots and UNE and 110 at UoN. When I did a quick tally on who on these forums were offered interviews it was ~70 so 10% of the total pool.

Has anyone else noticed this? Is it perhaps to create space for interstate applicants who will interview in a couple of weeks?
 
Got an offer from UoN, in the email it says bonded but on the myhub acceptance portal it shows CSP, I am confused. Is CSP and bonded are the same?
Does anyone know what are the limits/conditions with bonded places? I read I have to work 3 years in 18 year period, is it correct?

Both unbonded and bonded are csp. The forum uses csp referring to unbonded.
 
So, unfortunately I didn't receive an offer from JMP and I sent them a few questions today and I got the following reply for one of my questions:

Now, I am aware that I wouldn't receive any feedback, but I still decided to ask them, coz why not? Anyhow, my main question is the highlighted bit. I was under the impression, that the UCAT score would not have an effect on the offers, but doesn't the highlighted bit somewhat allude that the UCAT is considered? I may be reading into this too much, due to the lack of sleep, but what do you guys think?

I understand that UCAT is used to sub rank applicants after primarily ranking on the interview. ie if we both scored the same on the interview and you were 3040 for UCAT you would be ahead of me on a UCAT of 3020.

But don't lose hope - last year I was contacted by phone about 3 days before the semester started and offered a top up place.

Sorry Andrew, what did you mean by top up place?

As declines come through, universities will make 'top up' offers to ensure their cohorts are at the desired population level. JMP usually make these via telephone direct to applicants after the first Febuary UAC round (which operates as normal). There are not usually heaps, maybe a handful, with 1-2 posted here each year.
 
Hey I’m a bit confused about the enrolment process - can someone give clear steps on how to do it? Like do we have to accept on both UNE website (form thing) & also UAC? Thanks!

Hi I would recommend you contact UNE to confirm but you should accept UAC's offer at least and then I believe enrol through the university. Good luck !
