If you’re a domestic student who wants to commence studying in an undergraduate degree at the University of Sydney, you can apply for most scholarships through one application form.
We're dedicated to supporting you throughout your time at university. We offer a wide variety of scholarships for domestic undergraduate students.

If you have already submitted your application prior to a scholarship being added to the list, you will still be considered for this scholarship. You can check the list of scholarships on the website for any additions.
