HASS Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Scholarship

The HASS Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Scholarship provides financial support to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students enrolled in undergraduate programs within the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences at the University of Queensland. Established in 2020 under the Create Change Scholarship Match Initiative, the scholarship is maintained by the HASS Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Scholarship Endowment Fund. The scholarship provides $4,500 per year for the minimum completion time of the program. It is designed specifically for domestic students who can demonstrate financial hardship while pursuing their studies in arts, humanities, and social sciences. Selection is based on demonstrated financial need, academic capability, and future academic potential. Applications require evidence of Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander status, a statement describing financial situation, and a statement detailing academic achievements and future potential.
