Scholarships
The Women’s College offers a number of scholarships for residential students. These are awarded on the basis of a combination of academic potential and financial need. Scholarships are available, for example, to students from:
- Government schools
- Rural areas
- Indigenous and Torres Strait Islander backgrounds
- Postgraduate students undertaking medicine or scientific research
- Students studying performance at the Conservatorium of Music.
Music scholarship auditions will take place in early December and applicants will be advised of the audition date closer to the time.
Students seeking consideration for a residential scholarship must first complete an online residency application followed by a separate Scholarship application.
Applications for 2025 entry open on 1 May 2024 and close on 1 October 2024.
Note: The Women’s College does not award scholarships at mid-year (Semester 2) entry.
