University Sydney USMLE scores and US residency

The UsydMP Student Services and the International Office have been collecting information in regard to USMLE scores and US placement from current and past students for a number of years. I was talking to my tutor about this. He said that it is public information and suggested we request it from the the University. Any "member of the public" can make a request. You need an Australian postal address. See information below.http://www.usyd.edu.au/arms/foi/The University of Sydney falls within the jurisdiction of the NSW Freedom of Information Act, 1989. Briefly, the Act requires information concerning documents held by the University to be made available to the public, to enable a member of the public to obtain access to documents held by the University and to enable a member of the public to ensure that records held by the University concerning his or her personal affairs are not incomplete, incorrect or out of date.By definition, a "member of the public" might be a staff member or student of the University, a member of the general public, or an employee or officer of another agency or organisation. All may apply for access to documents, however some documents may be exempted from release. The Act contains review and appeal mechanisms which are required to be explained to applicants where applicable. FOI matters can be reviewed by the NSW Ombudsman or the NSW Administrative Decisions Tribunal.The University is required to report to the public on its FOI activities on a regular basis. The two reports provided are the Statement of Affairs and the Summary of Affairs. The Statement of Affairs contains information about the University, its structure and function and the kinds of documents held. The Summary of Affairs identifies each of the University's policy documents and provides a contact list for those wishing to access these documents. Please refer to the relevant pages to view these reports.Upon receipt of an application, the FOI officer will call for all documents relating to the application. Should you receive such a request, please comply by forwarding the requested documents to the FOI Officer as quickly as possible. It is a requirement of the Act that applications be processed and a determination made within 21 days from receipt of the application, except when consultation with third parties is necessary. Determinations under the Act are generally made by the University's Registrar.Please direct all Freedom of Information enquiries to the following officers:Tim Robinson FOI Coordinator Archives A14 University of Sydney NSW 2006 Telephone: (02) 9351 4263 Facsimile: (02) 9351 7304 Anne Picot FOI Officer Archives A14 University of Sydney NSW 2006 Telephone: (02) 9351 7262 Facsimile: (02) 9351 7304 E-mail: foi@mail.usyd.edu.au
