Scholarships & Bursaries

The Destination Australia Program was announced as part of the 'Planning for Australia’s Future Population' on 20 March 2019. The objective of the grant opportunity is to attract and support international and domestic students to study in regional Australia, to grow and develop regional Australian tertiary providers and offer students a quality learning experience. The University of Tasmania is proud to be a provider under the Destination Australia Scholarship Program and welcomes students to study at Australia’s fourth oldest university.

Available to Domestic (Tasmanian, interstate and New Zealander) students who are commencing a full-time bachelor degree or associate degree for the first time at the University of Tasmania in February 2023 in either Hobart, Launceston or Cradle Coast. Selection will be based on academic merit and quality of written application. Preference will be given to students who must move away from home in order to attend the University.
