About this opportunity

The Curtin On-Campus Accommodation Equity Bursary has been established to provide assistance for domestic and international students living in on-campus accommodation at Curtin Bentley who are experiencing financial hardship. The scholarship provides a fortnightly subsidy of $125 paid directly to the applicable on-campus accommodation residence for the duration of the accommodation contract, up to a maximum value of $1,500 for one semester agreements and up to a maximum value of $3,000 for annual agreements. Subsidy payments commence from the next pay cycle following scholarship acceptance and are applied in fortnightly instalments to subsidise rent. The scholarship is only valid for the length of the accommodation agreement and does not include earlier check-ins, extended departures, or summer stays. Recipients must maintain a minimum enrolment of 25 credits at Curtin University and have a Course Weighted Average of at least 50. The bursary is awarded based on financial need, with domestic students assessed on their financial situation and socio-economic background, while international students are assessed on changes in their financial situation since commencing studies.
