The Bendigo Scholarship

Interview with scholarship recipient Amy Lanfranchi

Despite having world-class university education available in Bendigo, too many students miss out on the benefits of higher education due to financial circumstances and the increasing costs associated with university study.

La Trobe University has a bold plan to change this.

We’ve started a new scholarship and we’re calling upon our local alumni and community to help us. Help us keep our future health care workers and business and community leaders here in Bendigo, where they can contribute to the long-term prosperity of our great community.

The Bendigo Scholarship offers support for up to four years of study at La Trobe University Bendigo. The scholarship includes:

  • support to the value of $6000 per  year for up to four years of study
  • mentoring by select alumni in chosen disciplines
  • a personal development plan.

'The scholarship I received was incredible. It meant that I could go on an overseas trip as part of my course. The opportunity to study, travel and study – all at the same time was really amazing and I wouldn’t have been able to do that without a scholarship.'

– Amy Lanfranchi, scholarship recipient studying a Bachelor of Urban, Rural and Environmental Planning, Bendigo.
