A Better Australia Scholarship Grant to Study in Australia

Application Deadline: December 31st 2014

The Expert Editor will award a $1500 scholarship each year to a student in Australia intent on making the country a better place. Today’s students have the potential to transform Australia and we want to recognise those with big agendas and make a financial contribution to help them realise it.

The Expert Editor wants to recognise and reward students with initiative, ambition and lofty idealism. An annual award of $1500 doesn’t place us in the big league of corporate philanthropy, but we believe it can assist a young Australian to step forward and make a difference. Hopefully this year’s scholarship winner will go on to change Australia in a manner that we cannot yet imagine.

Eligibility

To be eligible for this scholarship, you must meet the following criteria:

• A student (undergraduate or postgraduate) enrolled in a degree at an accredited university in the Australia.
• An Australian citizen, or permanent resident. International students are welcome to apply, but they must demonstrate how they will see through their change-making agenda after they graduate.

The deadline for this year’s scholarship program is 31 December 2014 and the winner will be announced on 14 January 2015. Please direct any questions about the scholarship to [email protected]

How to apply

To be awarded this scholarship, students must outline in around 200 words how they intend to change Australia.

Please email your entry to [email protected]au and include your name, university and contact details.

The prize

The Expert Editor will award $1500 to the winning student. This money should be used to facilitate their agenda, but whether that involves paying for current educational expenses, or something else entirely, is up to them.
