The Pallottine Aboriginal Scholarship Trust provides scholarships to Aboriginal and Torres Straight Islander people who wish to undertake post-secondary studies.
Successful applicants receive a grant to cover course fees, paid directly to their education institution.
HISTORY
The Trust’s first grants were offered in 2001. Funds were set aside following the sale of a student hostel. Generous people have contributed additional large and small amounts because they strongly believe in the urgent need for tertiary Aboriginal education.
APPLICATIONS:
- must be submitted on the form provided
- must be submitted YEARLY for a maximim of 3 years
- must be received by the closing date of 30 Sep for the following year.
Successful applicants will be advised around February each year, once confirmation has been received that they have been accepted and the cost of fees has been confirmed. They are expected to attend a Presentation of their award later in the year.
Note that funding for Sem II depends on receipt of a progress Report on Sem I. Successful applicants can re-apply annually for up to 3 years or to cover their first degree.
