Event description

All universities provide financial assistance and scholarships targeted towards Indigenous students. Some colleges such as Trinity College at the University of Melbourne and St Catherine’s College at the University of Western Australia have established successful residential programs to assist Indigenous students with educational opportunities. Through the consultation phase to prepare the profiles, it was identified that there may be opportunities to encourage more Indigenous students to choose student accommodation though the expansion of these programs to help Indigenous students feel at home in purpose built student accommodation.
