Encouraging academic excellence AND community involvement

The Tertiary Scholarship Fund was established in 2005, with the aim of encouraging academic excellence and community involvement amongst full time students who are enrolled at any tertiary educational establishment in the state of Victoria in Australia. The scheme is absolutely non-discriminatory; there is no restriction on an applicant’s background based on nationality, residency, ethnicity or faith. It is also not means nor income tested.

We are grateful to receive the generous financial endowment provided by Mekong Restaurant and Ms. Cina Choi, Justice of the Peace.
