Naarm Scholarship Program
Every year, the University of Melbourne offers undergraduate places to over 7000 of Australia’s top domestic students. But one third of these students will turn down their offer – often due to circumstances beyond their control. With support from the community, the program is providing an opportunity for talented students from diverse backgrounds so they can accept their offers and thrive at the university.
