Additional information
We want to make an Emmanuel College residency available to the most outstanding students, regardless of the financial means of their families, and to bring in students from diverse backgrounds around Australia and around the world.
Scholarships are awarded on the basis of academic merit. For your scholarship to continue from semester to semester, you need to maintain high academic achievement. Bursaries are awarded on the basis of need and sound academic achievement. If you’re seeking a bursary, you’ll need to provide evidence of financial hardship.
Most scholarships and bursaries are offered as a remission of College fees rather than as a cash payment.
You can apply for either a scholarship or a bursary or for consideration in both categories. You can apply for more than one scholarship at a time.
Due to the large number of applications for residency at Emmanuel College in 2022, we are bringing forward the closing dates for scholarship and bursary applications, for new applicants, to 31 December 2021. Students who are successful in being awarded a scholarship or bursary will be notified by 31 January 2022. The closing date of scholarship and bursary applications for returning students remains the same at 30 November 2021.
