Carlyle Greenwell Honours Scholarship

The Carlyle Greenwell Honours Scholarship provides support to students undertaking honours studies in Anthropology within the School of Social and Political Sciences at the University of Sydney. Established in 1962 and funded by a bequest from Carlyle Greenwell, this scholarship is designed to support students who can demonstrate disadvantage or hardship. The scholarship is awarded based on academic merit, demonstrated evidence of financial and/or other disadvantage, and the originality and merit of a personal statement describing reasons for studying anthropology and goals for the honours project. Preference is given to students who can demonstrate financial disadvantage or hardship, including those who are first in their family to attend university, have carer responsibilities, identify as Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander, have a long-term medical condition or disability, hold refugee status, experience regional or remote disadvantage, have sole-parent responsibilities, or identify as LGBTIQ+. The scholarship is valued at $8,500 and is tenable for one year only. For successful international recipients, the scholarship also covers tuition fees for one year.
