UTS Council Indigenous Scholarship

The UTS Council Indigenous Scholarship is designed to support a commencing Indigenous Australian student who is identified as a potential high achiever and who may face barriers to undertaking tertiary studies. The scholarship provides financial support of approximately $5,000 for one year to help Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students pursue undergraduate coursework at the University of Technology Sydney. Selection is based on motivation and potential to achieve excellence in the nominated UTS course, academic merit (ranked in ATAR order or equivalent), and demonstrated financial disadvantage through the UAC Equity Scholarship application. Preference is given to students who demonstrate educational barriers such as carer responsibilities or long-term medical conditions, disabilities, or ongoing effects of abuse.
