Applications for university study in 2023 are strong across the board according to the Universities Admissions Centre (UAC), with well over 26,000 Year 12 applications already received.
That trend is likely to continue, with all courses for semester 1, 2023 now available on UAC's website.
Charles Sturt University Associate Director of Admissions, in the Charles Sturt Division of Students, Peter Greening said to date Charles Sturt University has received close to 800 UAC preferences for Bathurst courses, including almost 200 first preference (applicants can preference up to five courses in UAC).
"The most popular courses for the Bathurst campus in UAC are Bachelor of Paramedicine, Bachelor of Nursing, Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood and Primary), Bachelor of Education (K-12), and Bachelor of Psychology," he said.
He said UAC applications traditionally continue growing strongly until the end of September each year.
