The game delayed a week due to rain was fast and furious and the defence brutal despite the maximum weight limit of 85kg.
Mosman went to a 7-nil lead in the first half but had to sustain a late burst from Uni.
With only four minutes remaining, UNSW hit the lead with two tries in two minutes.
But a crucial penalty was awarded to Mosman right on fulltime which Nick Hale calmly slotted between the uprights.
The 10-all score line saw Mosman advance to the Grand Final as the higher placed team during the round-robin series.
Mosman will play Beecroft in the decider at Rawson Park, Mosman in Wednesday, 12 July at 7.30pm.
Beecroft advanced to the final last week by smashing Campbelltown 25-nil at Wakehurst Rugby Park.
