check quotas and bass allocation

Base Allocation Student Support (BASS) is the funding given to units to support students on an annual basis. 

  • Your BASS is designated for an academic year (Sept to Aug).
  • BASS competitions are named for the academic year in which the award will be paid. 

If you use GDES, the BASS that appears in GA3 will be your annual BASS MINUS any GDES commitments.
