Application
Application deadline
The criteria for awarding the scholarship are academic excellence, financial need and any other criteria deemed appropriate or relevant. You will be required to demonstrate that you meet these conditions.
Applicants must submit a completed application form, family financial resources summary spreadsheet AND arrange for an academic referee to complete the reference form.
It may be expedient to review the family financial resources spreadsheet in the first instance to ascertain if the application will be worthwhile due to a comfortable surplus or too large a deficit.
