The Sydney Scholars Awards offers Year 12 students
commencing their studies in 2018 the opportunity to apply for scholarships
ranging from $6,000 to $10,000 per year in value and awarded in duration from
one year, up to 5 years (including combined undergraduate degrees).
These prestigious scholarships will be offered to students who meet the selection criteria including an ATAR requirement of 95 and above. Students applying to the Sydney Conservatorium of Music and Sydney College of Arts require an ATAR of 90 or above. If you are an international student, have recently completed an International Baccalaureate or educational award equivalent to the HSC, and are applying for admission through UAC, you are also eligible to apply.
For domestic students (including New Zealand citizens), if you receive an ATAR of 99.90 you will automatically be awarded a scholarship worth $10,000 for the duration of your undergraduate degree.
To be considered for a range of faculty scholarships, please
