The FedSuccess Study Start Scholarship provides a new laptop to a commencing student who has overcome hardship in order to be offered a place at Federation University. It is open to domestic commencing undergraduate students and is awarded on the basis of demonstrated hardship.

At Federation University we believe everyone has the right to access tertiary education. But there are many challenges which put university out of reach for many, particularly those from regional and remote communities or from a low socio-economic status. The Federation University Australia Foundation was developed to assist those students whose needs go beyond what our regular student support and government funding programs can offer.
