About This Opportunity

The Adam Scott Foundation Scholarship is an undergraduate scholarship designed to support commencing students at the University of Sydney who have received a MySydney Scholarship offer. The scholarship provides up to $80,000 over four years towards accommodation fees at University-owned residences. This scholarship was established through a donation from the Adam Scott Foundation with the purpose of addressing educational disadvantage experienced by people living in areas affected by socio-economic disadvantage. The scholarship facilitates and supports their participation in University of Sydney undergraduate courses by providing substantial financial assistance for accommodation costs. Recipients must be under 30 years of age and at least 18 years old at the time of commencing their studies. The scholarship covers $20,000 per year for the full-time duration of an undergraduate degree, up to a maximum of 4 years.
