Sporting scholarships

[Print-friendly version]

This scholarship has enabled me to concentrate not only on achieving high levels of performance in the classroom but also in the pool. QUT have also offered plenty of support in my studies which has allowed me to focus on the Beijing Olympics.

The QUT Student Guild Sport Scholarship program offers financial support for student athletes while they are attending and representing QUT. Representives from the QUT Student Guild make selection decisions in early March of each year from applications received.

Up to 14 scholarships may be offered each year - these consist of a cash grant, fitness and aquatic centre membership and a physiotherapy assessment.
