Academic Excellence Scholarship
The University values hard work, persistence, dedication and sustained effort in the pursuit of academic excellence. In 2019, the Vice-Chancellor announced new undergraduate scholarships for high performing students progressing within their degrees. Now, we are pleased to reveal the 2022 recipients of the Academic Excellence Awards!
These scholarships are awarded to domestic and international students on the basis of academic excellence and are worth $10,000 each. The scholarships support the recipients to identify with their degree programs as successful degree ambassadors, and as future graduates and alumni.
With persistence and hard work, you could be a recipient.
