At 6pm the NSW University Admissions Centre (UAC) released 1216 undergraduate offers to study at CSU campuses, including Dubbo.

The latest offers were in addition to the 3478 students who have previously been sent an on-campus offer and 6950 students who were invited to study via distance.

The highest number of offers at CSU were made for courses in nursing, 354, followed by the 343 main round offers in education.

"The most popular courses for 2015 reflect regional Australia's broader need for health care and education professionals. CSU graduates in these areas will be able to readily support the growing needs of their region," CSU Vice-Chancellor Andrew Vann said.

There have been nine rounds of university offers so far, but for those who have missed out there are still another four to come.

"Students who didn't receive an offer to study [last night] should not be disheartened and should consider their options for later rounds and pathway courses," Professor Vann said.

"[Last night's] offers are not the final opportunity for students to study at CSU. We have a variety of pathways to assist students in achieving their study and career goals."

Across NSW 46,507 main round offers were released last night, 4307 less than the number made in the main round last year.

However, UAC director of information services Kim Paino said the total number of offers made overall had increased from 2014.

"In the last few years many institutions have increased the number of offers they make in the earlier rounds, which of course means there are less in the main round. But the total pool of offers has increased," she said.

"Because of the growth in the number of early offers quite a few if our applicants will already have their offer."

To date universities have sent a total of 76,339 offers through UAC, up from the 74,797 which had been sent out at this time last year.

The next round of offers is on February 3 and applicants have until midnight on January 27 to change their preferences to be included in those offers.
