The Kevin and Margaret Duffy Scholarship

The Kevin and Margaret Duffy Scholarship aims to provide assistance to students studying vocal studies at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music. Established in 2020, the scholarship is funded by a gift from Kevin Duffy to honor students undertaking vocal studies or similar disciplines. The scholarship is awarded on the basis of academic merit, personal statement, demonstrated evidence of disadvantage, and/or portfolio and performance. For postgraduate research applicants, the scholarship may also be awarded on the basis of research achievements and potential. The scholarship value and duration are determined by the Dean of the Sydney Conservatorium of Music and will be stipulated in the offer letter to successful recipients. For coursework students, payment is made in two equal instalments after the census date of each semester, while for postgraduate research students, the value is paid as a stipend on a fortnightly basis.
