UTAS UTAS Medicine: Entry Information and Discussion

[Jaroha99]

Can you please share your ATAR/UCAT and State and Rurality?

Sorry should’ve stated I applied through postgraduate pathway as non-standard.

No interstate straight from school Metro offers, without special considerations were made this year I understand.
My ATAR was 99.90. I am posting so others don’t pin their hopes on Tassie. This email arrived this morning.
“Entry to the Medicine program is highly competitive and places are limited. You did not have an ATAR that was competitive for receiving an offer in the 2025 intake. “

I know someone (metro and interstate) who received an offer for 2025 intake at 99.65. How does that work?

have utas offers already come out for interstate rural school leavers?

Not yet for the 2026 intake. Called them yesterday and they said they are running behind

Oh what luxuries Tas students have!!
I had 99.80 & 100%ile UMAT, UTas offered me $20,000/year scholarship, then told me I wasn't good enough for med (albeit I wasn't Tas).

Did you end up receiving offer in the subsequent rounds for UTAS? and What year are you talking about - prior to 2018?

A1 replies: It was 2016, I was offered the 3-year B. Med Research followed by assured entry to 5-year MBBS.
Back then UTas didn't require 99.95 for interstate. I had tops UMAT sections 1 & 3, section 2 only 70%ile. UTas disqualified me from direct MBBS on this "unacceptable" 70%ile
