UOW Undergraduate Excellence Scholarships 

The University of Wollongong offers high-achieving students partial tuition scholarships through the UOW Undergraduate Excellence Scholarships program. 

These scholarships offer a 25% reduction of the normal annual course tuition fee for the duration of the course, up to a maximum duration of four years.   

The scholarships are available to students enrolling in all Bachelor degree programs except for Medicine, Nursing, Nutrition/Dietetics, Exercise Science/Rehabilitation and Psychology.  

Eligibility
Applicants are assessed automatically for a scholarship at the point of application for admission. Selection will be based on high achievement in previous studies in one of the following qualification categories:

• Australian Year 12 or equivalent international secondary school qualification;
• Foundation Studies programs approved for direct admission to Bachelor degrees and offered at an institution recognised by UOW;
• Diploma or other academic pathway program approved for admission with credit transfer and offered at institutions with which UOW has a formal recognition agreement.

Successful students will receive their offer of a scholarship at the same time as their offer of admission into their course.  Full terms of conditions of the scholarship will be provided with the letter of offer.  

On-going Eligibility
Students awarded a scholarship must complete the normal full-time study load per session and obtain an average mark of 65% each session in order to maintain their scholarship.  

Enquiries and Applications 
You do not have to make a separate application for a scholarship, as you will be considered automatically when you submit your application for admission to a course at UOW.  You can apply for admission either through the Universities Admissions Centre (UAC – for students currently completing an Australian Year 12 qualification) or apply directly to UOW.
