Scholarships
The SSB understands that education is often an expensive financial commitment for many. The SSB’s founding charter emphasises the accessible, affordable nature of the School’s education program. The Sydney School of Business educational programs aim to be accessible to students with ambition, talent, and a desire to lead, regardless of their financial ability. The School endeavors to encourage a learning environment with the most diverse range of student backgrounds.
Throughout the year the SSB awards a range of full and half scholarships and grants, funded by private benefactors, employers, and industry and community organisations and by the School. Each year the School has available a range of full and half scholarships and grants. These are funded by private benefactors, employers, industry, community organisations, and by the SSB. Each applicant is considered on their merit by the SSB’s Scholarship Committee.
To apply for any of the Scholarships and Grants, students will need to complete an online application form. Forms will include a 300 word submission addressing the Scholarship and Grant criteria.
