YOUTHRIVE Victoria’s round of scholarships is now open to rural and regional Victorian students planning to undertake further study in 2025.<\/p>\n

Each year, the local not-for-profit provides a number of scholarships to Year 12 students who plan to undertake university studies, or further develop skills through vocational training.<\/p>\n

In 2023, 11 Youthrive Victoria Rural University scholarships and 21 Rural Chances scholarships were awarded to young rural and regional Victorians looking to undertake further study in 2024.<\/p>\n

Thanks to funding generously provided by philanthropic donors, ten university scholarships that provide $10,000 per year for three years, and twenty vocational scholarships of up to $5000 have been made available to young rural Victorians wanting to up-skill or pursue tertiary study in 2025.<\/p>\n

Youthrive Victoria chief executive officer Andrew McGuckian said that they believe that their scholarships and programs are helping to create positive outcomes for students from rural and regional Victoria and hope to see a large number of applications for both our university and TAFE scholarships this year.<\/p>\n

“The scholarships provide financial support to assist with living expenses and travel costs, specifically addressing the needs of students from regional areas.<\/p>\n

“Youthrive Victoria also offers ‘Wrap Around Care’, which includes mentoring, capacity building and development opportunities.”<\/p>\n

The impact and importance of scholarships is widely acknowledged and can often lead to very different outcomes for students who may not be able to consider further studies due to costs and\/or regional distances.<\/p>\n

Molly, a 2024 Youthrive Victoria university scholar, reflected on how the scholarship had affected her.<\/p>\n

“The scholarship has empowered me to not only focus on my studies but also actively engage in initiatives aimed at improving rural areas,” she said.<\/p>\n

“It relieved the financial stress of the many expenses associated with university, and the money has allowed me to focus on my studies and engage in community service activities, such as taking over the social media and coaching at the Newlyn FNC to enhance my own local community.”<\/p>\n

University scholarship applications are now open, and close on August 25.<\/p>\n

Rural Chances vocational scholarships are now open, and close 14th November.<\/p>\n

Youthrive Victoria’s scholarships are funded by private donors, philanthropic trusts, and sponsors.<\/p>\n
