Crawford Family Scholarship

The Crawford Family Scholarship is a financial aid scholarship for medical students at The University of Queensland. Established in 2024 through a gift from the Crawford family under The Queensland Commitment, this scholarship supports students enrolled in the Doctor of Medicine program who are experiencing financial hardship and come from Regional, Rural or Remote Areas. The Crawford family grew up in Baralaba, Central Queensland and Rockhampton was the nearest major city. Gloria and Gordon Crawford realised the value of education and worked hard to ensure each of their children had the opportunity to access high quality educational institutions to pursue their life goals. This scholarship honors their foresight and sacrifice to achieve their ambition. The scholarship provides at least $4,500 per year (limited to the annual income from the fund) for one year to help students complete their Doctor of Medicine degree.
