Students in the Macedon Ranges are being urged to apply for scholarships valued at up to $18,000 to support their learning.

Applications for the Rural and Regional Enterprise Scholarship are open for students engaged in courses from certificate IV to PhD.

The scholarship is designed to support students that have commenced a new course of study this year; are studying on campus or via distance education; or anyone studying for a period between six months and up to eight year part-time.

The funding is tailored ona case-by-case basis and is only available to students living in regional or rural areas.

“We want to provide as many opportunities as possible for individuals in regional and

remote Australia to pursue further study, and relieving the financial burden is one way to

help them to do that,” Minister for Regional Education Bridget McKenzie said.

“This is a fantastic opportunity for regional and remote students and I encourage all those

eligible to apply.”
