Access Scholarship for Pathways Students 2026

Access Scholarships aim to ensure that Australians from low socioeconomic status (SES) backgrounds who have the ability to study at university get the opportunity to do so. The Access Scholarship for Pathways Students is specifically open to students who have completed a Vocational Education and Training (VET) qualification immediately prior to commencing a full-time undergraduate degree at Swinburne University of Technology in 2026. This scholarship provides financial support to help overcome barriers related to financial and personal hardship, enabling students to pursue their undergraduate studies on campus. The scholarship is designed to support students from pathways education including Certificate I-IV, Diploma, Advanced Diploma, and UniLink Diploma programs as they transition into university-level education.
