 Scholarships are a fantastic opportunity for students to receive financial assistance for costs such as tuition, text books and living expenses. Vice Chancellor Scholarship recipient Meika Decker encourages all students to apply. 
 “When applying for university courses, not many students think about also applying for the many scholarships on offer. As a recipient of a Vice Chancellor’s Scholarship in Business and Commerce from Swinburne University of Technology, I encourage VCE students to think more about scholarships offered by universities such as Swinburne. 
 “The Vice Chancellor’s Scholarship is awarded to VCE students who receive an ENTER score of 97.00 or more and requires a 70% grade average for your uni subjects. The scholarship covers my course fees (HELP) and gives me the role of being a student ambassador for the university. This means I get to be more involved in the university, helping out at events like Swinburne Open Day. 
 “The application for a Vice Chancellor’s Scholarship was as simple as adding the scholarship code to my VTAC preferences list (it has its own course code) and filling in a short online form. 
 “If you’re dedicated, hardworking and interested in studying at Swinburne, it’s not too late to apply.”
