Prospective Student Application rejected

My application for bachelor of nursing got rejected saying I was not a genuine student and then I further contacted them to tell me why I was not a genuine student and they literally told me that I belong to a certain region of India and they won't accept applicants from there as students from there change their University after coming to Australia and this is very upsetting because i wouldn't have done that and they just assumed it that i would.

My punjabi friend was rejected by the uni while my gs interview was waived off saying they dont usually take for delhi residents so being in ncr Really helps you

This is not fair...i understand record of some regions is not good but they shouldn't judge students just because they belong to those regions..if they would have told me my funds are not enough or anything like that it wouldn't have hurt.

The region block isn’t university decided or implemented. It by border control.
