Scholarships are crucial for a significant number of our students, enabling them the opportunity to access transformative higher education, regardless of financial disadvantage or difficult personal circumstances.
Scholarships are also a gift of confidence-building, reminding recipients that others recognise their merit and value the contributions they’ll make in the future.

"If you had told me 8 years ago, when I was really quite unwell and forced to drop out of school in Year 11, that I would now be doing a PhD, I wouldn’t have believed you. The scholarship has meant that I am now able to do something that I never thought was possible. I am able to do what I want with my life."
—Georgie, Former scholarship recipient and 1st year PhD candidate
