Adelaide Access Scholarship

In 2010, SATAC will manage the application, assessment and offer process for Adelaide Access Scholarships on behalf of The University of Adelaide.

Applications will open late in 2009 and students are encouraged to access this website for updates in instructions for applying.

The University of Adelaide will award a number of scholarships for students commencing undergraduate programs in 2010 who have not commenced a post-secondary program of study previously (university or VET).

To be eligible for the Adelaide Access Scholarships, applicants must:

• gain admission to an undergraduate Bachelor's level course of study as a Commonwealth Supported student at the University of Adelaide commencing in 2010; and
• enrol on a full time basis (unless there are special circumstances preventing this, such as disability); and
• be Australian citizens, Australian Permanent residents, New Zealand citizens, or holders of a permanent humanitarian visa; and
• belong to one or more of the following student groups:

1. students from rural or isolated areas who must move away from home to study;
2. Indigenous Australians; 
3. students with a disability.

Eligible students will be ranked for selection based on academic merit.

Recipients of the Adelaide Access Scholarship will receive $2,500 per annum, paid in two (2) instalments in April and September for the duration of their studies, up to a maximum of four (4) years.
