Summer & Winter School Scholarships

Summer and Winter School Scholarships are offered to eligible local undergraduate students who are currently enrolled. Students from other universities are welcome to apply.

To complete your application:

  • Apply online through the My Summer Study for your chosen unit(s), selecting "Summer School Scholarship" as your payment method. The application process is the same for Winter School: My Winter Study
  • Send a covering letter to the Summer School office, describing your educational history and the reason you are applying for the scholarship
  • Include evidence supporting a claim of financial hardship, for example Austudy, Youth Allowance, other government benefit, pay slips or bank statements which indicate financial status
  • Include evidence of long-term educational disadvantage, for example medical certificates or evidence that you grew up in a non-English speaking household (eg Statutory Declaration).
