Augustus Short Scholarships
Dr Augustus Short was the first Vice Chancellor of the University of Adelaide and believed that no student should be prevented from pursuing a higher education because of financial hardship.
We know that some of Australia’s highest-achieving students run the risk of never attending university because they live in rural areas and/or are facing financial barriers. Augustus Short Scholarships offer these students meaningful financial support throughout their undergraduate degree, removing barriers to their participation in higher education.
In naming this scholarship fund, we acknowledge the profound impact Dr Augustus Short had on the University.
All gifts of $2 or more are tax deductible. The University of Adelaide is a recognised deductible gift recipient (DGR). 100% of your gift will directly support your nominated cause.
