Just rural or ATSI. But it's a whole different pathway you have to apply to in addition to the standard application, so if you've not done that, those things won't be considered.

Just rural or ATSI. But it's a whole different pathway you have to apply to in addition to the standard application, so if you've not done that, those things won't be considered.
Then the offer is withdrawn.

Hey, first time posting on this forum so still figuring it out. I am an interstate non-standard applicant and have not had my application changed, although could it be to do with when university results are finalised? They may not start processing your application until this is done? The final results release date for my uni is 2nd December so I will check back then. However, I am not that hopeful about a place this year due to my UMAT score. I emailed them a couple of weeks ago and they said they would be releasing offers from December right through until O-week...
University: UTAS
Offer: No
Applicant Type: Non-standard
Interstate: Yes
ATAR/GPA: 7.0
UMAT: 174 / 84th percentile 67/59/48
Rural: No

We aren't at all sure what the change in study status/generation of a student number means (if anything). That said, other non-standard applicants whose results have not been released yet have had their details changed, so it doesn't appear linked to results release.

Interstate...why?
Nothing important, just I wanted to know why you thought UTAS is difficult for interstate students as it has some quota for interstate Year 12 candidates.
If it's not higher than 95, then your offer is revoked I believe. That's what conditional offer is!

. Why the hell they give such offer. They could offer it properly after the HSC results!!mary poppins

Totally disagree. It is relaxing to know you have an offer. It means you avoid possibly 6 weeks of hell waiting to see if medicine is available to you. Presumably you and the school have a fair idea of your end result. Much less stress.
UTAS have operated this way for a very long time. I suspect it's rare that an offer is revoked. They wouldn't do it if it didn't work for them.
Usually the predicted ATAR is somewhat close to what the true ATAR will be, it won't be completely off. So with the conditional offer and if you know you'll defs be getting >95, you can pretty much enjoy your holidays knowing you'll be in med next year!

Only two people have reported receiving offers in this thread; both rural interstate standard.Hey guys, congrats to everybody that got an offer! How exciting!
If you're a non standard student, would you mind posting your GPA and UMAT scores? Would be super helpful
Best of luck to everyone waiting!!

Oh I see, sorry! I mentioned mine earlier in the thread but:Hey Littlebitsofgood, I know I just had a bit of a look through the forum, but I was wondering where the non standards were sitting at the moment just to get an idea
GPA should hopefully be 6.7 when this semesters grades are up.
UMAT 99th%ile, 61/81/64.
Non-standard, non-rural, interstate.
So I recieved an offer, woot!
University: Utas
Offer: Commonwealth supported
Applicant Type: School leaver
Interstate: Yes
ATAR: Unknown
UMAT: 100th %tile (210 I think)
Rural: RA2 whole life
Now, I'm unsure what will happen if I accept the offer. Provided I get the ATAR, if I got an offer somewhere else, and would prefer to attend that uni, can I just withdraw from UTAS? Are there penalties (say a payment)? I'm guessing that it should be fine, but I'm just unsure.

Congrats on your offer. No there are no penalties, plenty of students do it. Acceptance now only means the uni reserves it for you. At a later date you will need to enrol to make it official so at that stage you can just not enrol let it lapse, or be nice & tell the uni you decline so they reallocate to the next in line, or even apply for deferral till next year to keep the option open.
