Hey all,

quick question, does anyone know if you can hold a Vice-Chancellor's Leadership Scholarship and an Academic Excellence scholarship at the same time?

Oh, and another one, do you guys think the SmartStart Scholarship would be available for undergraduate med students? Does anyone have some info on this?

Cheers,

No, you can only have one because they are both funded by the university. You can hold two scholarships if one is funded by the uni and the other is donor-funded (by a council/business, for example).

I wasnt eligible for any 9due to location and/or course) but I got some random $4000 one for having UWS as a first prefence and a high UAI and I am doing law

no you can't...

have a look on the website - there are 2 types of scholarships - Donor A and Donor B - you can hold one of A and B - eg i have the blacktown council academic one (no longer offer fyi) and the UWS Acad excellence one.

Just have a read through the list - the application forms should tell you which ones are which - nto sure if the details are up yet, but you got til 30 Septembeer to apply

Smart start may be since it's a new course to en courage application..dunno..

They offer it to law students btw whoever mentioned it, so it doesn't seem to be done on so called "smart" or "dumb" courses.. depneds on how many apply and stuff like that

EDIT: for those who don't know - you gotta have the uws course in your top 3 to be eligible for a lot, if not all of the scholarships so yeah.. makesure you do that coz no matter how good your mark is, if you don't have it in top 3 you won't get a scholarship.
