Academic Merit Scholarship

The undergraduate Academic Merit Scholarship at University of Wollongong covers 15% – 50% of tuition fees each semester. The scholarship does not include textbooks, excursions, accommodation, living expenses or any other study-related expenses.

Scholarship Value

Three categories of scholarship are available to undergraduate students.

•     50% scholarship (conditions apply)
•     25% scholarship
•     15% scholarship

Within each category, the number of scholarships awarded is limited and you must meet the minimum selection criteria for the relevant category in order for your application to be considered.

Scholarships are awarded on a first come, first served basis. Once all scholarships have been awarded for a semester, no further scholarship applications will be accepted.

• Applications are open to new (entry level) students.
• Applicants must have achieved the minimum grades as listed in the Curriculum table below.
• Applicants must meet all of the academic and admission criteria to be admitted to the University and be intending to enrol in the relevant session for which they have applied.

Requirements to Retain the Scholarship

Scholarships awarded to students are reviewed annually at the beginning of Autumn semester (unless otherwise stated). In order to retain this Scholarship, undergraduate students must meet the following criteria:

•     Enrol in a minimum of 3 subjects (mandatory) in Autumn and Spring
