Sydney first. One degree, four years at most, three if possible. Something international, career building and hard for AI to replace. Everyone in the family can vote and comment; Claude reads this page too.
以悉尼为主。单学位，不超过 4 年，最好 3 年。要国际化、对事业有帮助、受 AI 影响小。全家都能投票和留言，Claude 也读这一页。
The answers cut ten options down to two or three.
答完，十个方向会缩到两三个。
Single degree, four years at most, within reach with the 5 athlete points. Suggested UAC order:
单学位、不超过 4 年、加 5 分运动员加分后够得到。建议的 UAC 志愿顺序：
| # | Degree | 学位 | Years | 年限 | 2026 rank | 2026 入门线 | Why | 为什么 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | UNSW Commerce (Co op) | 4 | 97.0 | About $20,000 a year tax free plus 18 months paid placements; separate application by 30 Sep | 每年约 $20,000 免税加 18 个月带薪实习；9 月 30 日另交申请 | |||
| 2 | UNSW Commerce (International) | 4 | 97.0 | Compulsory year abroad with $5,000 support | 强制海外一年，配 $5,000 | |||

Out of reach or excluded: USyd Physiotherapy (99.5), all USyd Law combinations (99.5, no athlete points). Neither university takes school leavers into a single Law degree.
够不到或被排除的：USyd 理疗（99.5）、USyd 全部法律组合（99.5 且不认运动员加分）。两校都不招高中毕业生单读法律。
Entry figures are the 2026 intake from each university's own page; the 2028 round will differ. Elite athlete adjustment is up to 5 points at most universities, except where noted. Vote on each one and leave a note; others' votes show on the right.
入门线是各校官网 2026 年入学那一轮的数字，2028 那轮会变。运动员加分大多数学位最多 5 分，另注明的除外。每个方向投一票、写一句，别人的票显示在右边。

Plain truth: for law or arts in Sydney the money is thin. The USyd Law School's five commencing scholarships are all hardship, regional or First Nations. The ones worth effort are below.
实话：在悉尼读法律或文科，奖学金不多。USyd 法学院五份新生奖学金全是经济困难、偏远或原住民类。值得花力气的是下面这些。

The centre of Sydney paddling is Narrabeen on the Northern Beaches. NSWIS runs its canoe sprint program there and has a surf to sprint pathway (JETS). Where you live decides whether 4 to 6 water sessions a week are realistic.
悉尼划艇的重心在 Northern Beaches 的 Narrabeen。NSWIS 的 canoe sprint 基地在那里，还有专门把救生选手转为 sprint 的 JETS 项目。住在哪里，决定每周 4 到 6 次水上课能不能坚持。

Which surf club has the strongest ski squad is a question for Chris's coach; people inside the sport know better than any website. Leaving Perth also means leaving the Trigg and Bayswater coaching teams, which should be weighed on its own.
哪家 surf club 的 ski 队最强，请 Chris 的教练推荐，圈内人比网站准。离开 Perth 也意味着离开 Trigg 与 Bayswater 的教练团队，这一点要单独计进去。
