Sports Scholarships for School Leavers

Through Sydney Uni Sport & Fitness the University of Sydney offers sport scholarships to both new and contiunuing students in over 35 sports. Scholarship recipients receive financial assistance and have access to fitness facilities, academic counselling, personal development seminars, academic tutoring, dietic services and strength and conditioning programmes.

Around 50 atheletes are offered a place in the Talented Athelete Program (TAP) each year. These atheletes have access to all services available to full scholarship recipients with the exception of direct financial assistance.

The selection criteria vary among the sports but as a general rule, successful applicants are atheletes competing at state or national championship level who are recognised by the relevant national sporting body as elite or who have developmental potential.

Recipients are expected to represent their University sports club, take part in the University Games and maintain a successful academic record.

Applications close in December.
