Featured scholarships making an impact
The George Alexander Foundation scholarship
The George Alexander Foundation (GAF) scholarship for high-achieving regional students opens up a world of opportunity for Murdoch University undergraduates to enhance their studies at national and international training programs.
Each year GAF awards six scholarships worth up to $24,000 over a three-year degree to students needing to relocate from regional or remote areas to study at Murdoch.
GAF recipients have used the scholarship to enrich their education and training, putting the funds usually allocated to basic expenses towards invaluable real-world work experience opportunities.
Banksia Association Honours Scholarship
This scholarship was established by Banksia Association members in late 2007 to encourage the highest achieving students to continue their education at Murdoch University by providing them with financial assistance during their Honours year.
