It's a race to the bottom. Monash, UWA, Adelaide, UTAS, Flinders (NT) all help in-state applicants, this will push cut offs up and encourage more uni's/states to favour local applicants (not like theres many left)... NSW and QLD seem to be the only ones holding out - except for JCU (which doesnt have a quota, but definetely supports local applicants) and WSU

jcu supporting local applicants, are u referring to local rural applicants, or are u also including local qlders?

Griffith Dent 2020 intake:
999 applied, 112 offers, 97 accepted, 82 enrolled = 81 Others, 1 Y12
2021 intake:
1346 applied, 169 offers, 145 accepted, 118 enrolled = 116 Others, 2 Y12

The 1 & 2 were Qld Y12 so Y12 is the more relevant word not local Qld. It was neither insane nor a typo, the reason was with so many non-standard applicants their cutoff was GPA 6.875, which translates to ATAR 99.80 for Y12s. But most Y12s with 99.80+ also qualified for and chose Griffith Med instead.

With UQ Dent only making 47 offers last year, do you think spots will be saved for NSW students? If UQ doesn't even have a quota for local students, then why would they reserve spots for interstates.. The third QTAC offer round will be the first offer round for NSW students, due to the late ATAR release. Since there are already two offer rounds before the first offer round for NSW students, I think spots will run out before NSW students are even considered on the basis of their ATAR and UCAT, making UQ Dent impossible for NSW/ACT students.. What are your thoughts on this?

On a related note, even though UQ Dent made 47 offers last year, this doesn't mean they have capacity for 47 people, right? Because UQ Med made 399 offers last year, but surely they don't have capacity for 399 people.. These numbers refer to the total number of offers made, after accounting for those who rejected the offers and enrolled elsewhere, right?

Yes it includes rejections, but I believe they might have quite a few people who deferred, so the number of spots in competition would be lower. It is unlikely for UQ to make a special quota for interstate students as it can disadvantage other students from other states as NSW is the only state with a late ATAR release

Two columns to the right of this 47 shows UQ Dent enrolments 2020 32, 2021 27. I guess they have 30ish seats (not counting int'l students).

A med school can have a policy to prefer local/in-state students, but this policy would apply equally against all interstate. It'd be scandalous to discriminate against a single state.

That said, this NSW matter is not about UQ Dent having or not having a quota. This is more like UNSW Med not having a local/interstate quota but still reserve enough places to offer to interstate later. UQ Dent can easily check how many spots typically went to NSW applicants in previous years and set them aside this year for NSW until their ATAR is released.

As A1 points out above, just like how UNSW reserves spots for interstates UQ could do the same, right..?? It's not like those spots are reserved solely for NSW, if people from QLD have higher UCAT than all applicants from NSW then those spots initially reserved for NSW could go to people from QLD or other states with higher ranking.. I think this is what happens for UNSW spots that are saved for interstate people..

A1 How likely do you think UQ Dent will save spots for NSW? I am feeling really unconfident about interviews and worried that I will end up with 0 offers.. I know a few people who had amazing atars (<99.60 USC cutoff of course) and ucats, but didn't do well in their interviews.. All of them are in UQ Dent right now.. It used to give me peace of mind that if all fails, I can go UQ dent.. But now that is looking uncertain because of this late NSW Atar release date..

See this post > JCU - JCU Medicine: Interview Discussion
I'm optimistic QTAC won't let all med/dent offers given out in the 1st offer round (QTAC is in control of that since it's a QTAC-coordinated round), not just for UQ but JCU/Griffith as well.

In fact I'd argue that if UQ/JCU/Griffith play by the rules properly they CAN'T make any med/dent offers before 20th January. Because they have accepted a lot of NSW school-leaver applicants who are wthout an actual ATAR, they can't rank the whole pool for offers. Not only QTAC but the schools themselves need to wait for NSW actual ATAR.

Thanks so much A1 , as always. I will hope for the best, really hope UQ saves spots.. But, I am also preparing for the worst, because as you will agree, this year has been so unpredictable.. (e.g. Who would've even imagined ATAR coming out 9am, UNSW invite coming out 10 am, and UNSW interview starting 1pm?) haha..

But I will hope for the best, fingers crossed.. Thanks A1 ! :)

Mmm, I see your point! This would be the best case scenario. I think this would have to apply for every medical school/dental school across the country not just QLD right?? (Take Adelaide for example, they have also interviewed heaps of NSW applicants, but can't rank everyone using 40:40:20 ratio until NSW atars have come out.)

If this does happen, then QLD students essentially get a 15 day delay in getting their offers.. 1st round 13th, 2nd round 21th (but QTAC is not making NSW offers this date even though it's after 20th), and 3rd round 28th of Jan is when QTAC has advertised as the first round for NSW applicants.

good for you mate, meanwhile us queenslanders cant apply to interstate due to stupid quotas from 3300+ ucat scores, its depressing when majority of our med/dental spots are taken by immigrants across the state...
at least nsw doesnt have much quotas barring wsu, so i guess nsw is much better compared other states, but its ridiculous as a qlder
NSW and QLD students are in the same boat with this one

Where would I find the data for 2022 and 2023? I’m curious to see the effect of the xxQ unis on UQ data, if any. Is there a site or link somewhere that QTAC puts this info on?

I found them here, under Data 2021-2022 > Statistics | QTAC

But .... 2023 is not up and only shows 2022 Summary (of the whole unis). I'm positive I saw 2022 Detail before yet it's no longer there.

I think I found the detail under Table A - it’s so tiny! Need to zoom it so I can read it properly but it certainly seems like UQ have reduced both their number of interviews and final offers since 2021.

A1 adds: Where do you see this Table A? I can't find it.
