About This Opportunity

The Zoe Hall Memorial Scholarship is an undergraduate and postgraduate coursework scholarship established by Minter Ellison and Middletons, Moore and Bevins law firms in memory of Zoe Hall, a graduate of Sydney Law School who tragically died at Port Arthur, Tasmania on 28 April 1996. Support for the scholarship comes from the Hall family and friends, a broad cross-section of the legal profession and the wider community. The scholarship is awarded to high academic achievers enrolled in their final or penultimate year of the Bachelor of Laws (LLB) or Juris Doctor Program at the University of Sydney. Recipients must be Australian citizens or permanent residents with at least one semester remaining in their studies at the time of application. Selection is based on academic merit and a personal statement outlining the applicant's contribution to the Sydney Law School, University and wider community. The scholarship is valued up to $6,000 and is paid as a one-off payment after the census date of the relevant semester. Scholarship recipients may be invited to promote the University of Sydney Law School at University and corporate networking events. The scholarship is subject to availability of funds and is not deferrable without prior permission from the Associate Dean for Professional Law Programs.
