The George Alexander Foundation Scholarship Program at ANU

The George Alexander Foundation Scholarship Program commenced at the Australian National University (ANU) in 2018. The Scholarship Program was established to assist high-achieving students with the costs of relocating to undertake an undergraduate degree.

Seven scholarships are awarded annually, each valued at $24,000 and paid in instalments during the scholar's degree.

The scholarships are open to commencing full-time students relocating from a rural, regional or remote area to undertake an undergraduate degree at ANU's Canberra campus. All GAF scholarships recognise students who can demonstrate academic merit, community involvement and leadership capability.

Receiving a GAF scholarship was incredibly validating. I felt my years and years of hard work had paid off in terms of my academic success and were being recognised and rewarded.
