Grathelms Scholarship

The Grathelms Scholarship is designed for Bachelor of Fashion (Design) students in their second, third or honours year, with outstanding academic results, who can demonstrate circumstances which impact their study. Made possible by a generous donation from Neil McGrath and Ron Elms, designers and principals of Grathelms Couture established in Melbourne in 1966, the scholarship is given to foster and assist oncoming talent and to provide encouragement and reward. The scholarship is awarded based on the application, academic results and demonstrated potential for future practice. Recipients can use the funds to establish their practice and studio with required tools, explore materials, and gain financial security while pursuing their fashion design studies.
