4 questions about preferences you've been meaning to ask but haven't had the chance
You’ve got eight spots on your preferences list. Put your dream courses in your top three in order of the courses you most want to do. Keep adding and re-ordering your wish list before timely applications close on 28 Septmber 2023 at 5 pm.
Make your wish list based on what you actually want to do, and make sure you include pathway options too. What are pathways? They’re things like certificates and diplomas and they can lead to a degree. Preferencing them can reduce your risk of not getting any offers and, at the same time, put you closer to your dream course. Federation is known as a ‘dual-sector uni’, which means that as well as degrees, we offer certificates and diplomas – or pathways.
You need to know your entry requirements and plan accordingly. Select the ‘Entry Requirements’ tab on the course page to see exactly what pre-requisites you’ll need before your application will be considered. If you don’t meet the prerequisites, you might be able to re-route your application through FedUni’s Federation Access Studies Course. You will be guaranteed a place in one of Federation's undergraduate degrees when you're done. This option is only available for some courses so be sure to check first.
Essentially, they act as the medium between universities and students, negotiating which university you’ve placed highest on your preference list will be interested in making you an offer. It could mean that you’ve been accepted into all eight courses on your list – but you only ever get one offer and they are the ones who will let you know.
