About This Opportunity

The Lee Ming Tee Indigenous Scholarship was established in 2018 to provide financial support to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students undertaking undergraduate studies at the University of Sydney. This scholarship is funded by the LEE Ming Tee Foundation and aims to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students to achieve their study goals. The scholarship provides comprehensive support valued at $42,000 per year for up to 3 years, covering accommodation, tuition fees, and potential cash payments. Recipients must be enrolled in the first semester of their undergraduate degree and demonstrate academic merit, community engagement, and leadership experience. The scholarship prioritizes residential fees at University-associated colleges or residences, followed by tuition fees, with any remaining funds provided as direct cash payments. While currently no longer accepting applications, this scholarship represents a significant commitment to supporting Indigenous students in their higher education journey.
