About This Opportunity

Supported by the McCall MacBain Foundation and UniLodge Australia, the Second Home Scholarship encourages and supports Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students to complete their university education at Curtin University by covering their accommodation costs at one of the Curtin Perth on-campus accommodation residences. The scholarship provides an annual value of up to $12,500 paid directly to Curtin Perth on-campus accommodation for up to a maximum of three years based on a full-time study load of 100 credits per semester. This scholarship is specifically designed to remove barriers to higher education for Indigenous students by addressing accommodation costs, allowing them to focus on their studies and achieve their academic and career aspirations.
