About This Opportunity

The BlueScope Indigenous Scholarship in Business is a prestigious undergraduate scholarship generously donated by BlueScope Steel to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students pursuing their studies at the University of Sydney Business School. The scholarship is valued at $12,500 per annum and is tenable for up to two years, providing essential financial support for full-time undergraduate coursework. The scholarship aims to assist Indigenous students in achieving their educational goals in business disciplines. Recipients are selected based on a comprehensive assessment including a personal statement demonstrating leadership experience and potential, extracurricular activities, community involvement, personal qualities, academic merit, and an interview process. To maintain the scholarship, recipients must sustain satisfactory academic performance with a minimum Semester Average Mark (SAM) of 60 each semester over a full-time study load. The scholarship is paid in two equal instalments after the census date of each semester and provides crucial financial assistance for Indigenous students to complete their undergraduate business degrees at one of Australia's leading business schools.
