Using the scholarships search tool

UTS is proud to award scholarships to its students every year. Through providing scholarships, UTS endeavours to reward achievement and recognise motivation to succeed. UTS is also committed to providing support to students experiencing financial hardship and/or other educational disadvantages.

The scholarships search tool helps students search for available scholarships. Results will include a description and provide details on value, duration, eligibility, selection process, conditions of award and how to apply. 

Filtering your search

You can easily filter your search according to the course area that you are interested in (for example Business, Science, Law, Arts) and/or eligibility criteria (such as academic merit or financial hardship).
Click “Search Scholarships” without selecting any search criteria for a comprehensive list of all scholarships at UTS. You can then search via keyword to narrow down the results.
