About this opportunity
The UTS Humanitarian Scholarship has been established to support undergraduate and postgraduate studies for students holding asylum seeker bridging or temporary protection visas as a result of their arrival to Australia as asylum seekers or humanitarian entrants. The scholarship program underscores a university-wide commitment to provide scholarships across all UTS faculties that offer undergraduate degrees to asylum seekers unable to access Commonwealth Supported places or government loan schemes. The scholarship covers full tuition fees plus Student Services and Amenities Fees, with a stipend provided if funding is available. A maximum of 26 recipients will be awarded the scholarship each year, subject to available funding, with places reserved for both undergraduate and postgraduate students across different visa categories. The scholarship is available for the standard duration of the undergraduate or postgraduate UTS course the recipient is enrolled in.
