High school programs
At the University of Melbourne, we recognise outstanding achievement in academic, sporting and artistic ability, and encourage high achievers through a number of special programs and entry pathways.
Through our programs and scholarships, you'll gain access to our world-class degrees, educators, facilities and support; helping you achieve your goals and academic potential, no matter the circumstances.
Kwong Lee Dow Young Scholars
For Victorian (and select NSW/SA) Year 11-12 students, the Kwong Lee Dow Young Scholars Program is an engagement program designed to support high-achieving students with academic enrichment and guidance with the transition from high school to university.
University of Melbourne Extension Program
Our Extension Program allows high achieving Year 12 students to complete university subjects while still at school, and the chance to earn an ATAR contribution.
Entry pathways and scholarships for high achievers
Other scholarships
We’re all different; we come from different places with different passions and ambitions. That’s why we offer a huge variety of scholarships from those awarded on academic merit and some taking additional factors into account; others to help with your expenses in Melbourne and some to help you travel the globe. Wherever you are and whatever your passion, with a Melbourne scholarship you can turn ambition into achievement
