You'll receive on-campus accommodation at UC – giving you a safe and supportive space to live while you study.
This will include a standard room in a 5-bed share apartment for 52 weeks each year. Alternative rooms may be arranged to support accessibility or specific needs of individuals.
Through the scholarship program, you’ll receive support to grow into something more. A confident leader, a bold thinker and someone ready to make a difference.
As a Snow Scholar, you’ll take part in a holistic development program that includes:
First Nations cultural experiences
mentoring and workshops with inspiring leaders and entrepreneurs
opportunities for meaningful work experience
leadership training.
You're not expected to do it all on your own. As a Snow Scholar, you’ll have access to support you need to stay on track, like assistance with your transition into university tutoring, help with academic placements and free medical, wellbeing and financial services.
This support is here to help you feel good, stay focused and make the most of your time at university – in your studies and beyond.
Located on campus, the Snow Centre is a dedicated space for Snow Scholars – a place to study, relax and feel at home.
With kitchen facilities and quiet study areas, it’s designed to support you throughout your time at university. Whether you need a moment of calm or a space to connect with fellow scholars, the Centre is where it all comes together.
You will be part of the UC community, a place of true belonging and connection, including the Ngunnawal Centre, Queer Space, Inclusion and Welfare teams, just to name a few. We will work closely with the Ngunnawal Centre to ensure we best cater to the alignment of study needs, support and success of UC's Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students.
Our friendly staff are committed to better university access, participation, and opportunities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and those from a diverse background.
