Claire Pech – Careers Advisor

This week I have launched how to apply to UAC via their website, which is now open for business. 

UAC, different from previous years, is open much earlier in the academic calendar, and so students have been advised not to feel pressured to apply now, but they can set up their account if they like, and enter in preferences, if they are ready.

This is a great video about how to run through the process. It is very straightforward and after 4 minutes watching this you will know exactly what to do. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hZapVNXwDw

This is also a great article below, produced by University of Sydney, about what to consider when deciding on how to choose a University degree that is suitable. https://sydney.edu.au/campus-life/student-news/2017/09/13/why-all-of-your-uac-preferences-matter.html

I have told Year 12s today that Term 2 tends to be the researching term, so I would advise students to increase the amount of research they have done to make informed choices and be prepared for Open Day Season later in the year.

I would like students and parents, to put the HSC & Careers Expo dates into their diary (between Thursday 31 May 2019 and Sunday 2 June 2019) and attend with friends and/or family. All NSW higher education institutions and Universities attend this huge career affair and each year. Emanuel students find it a very valuable experience to attend. https://www.hscandcareers.com.au/
