Hear from past recipients of the Hume Scholarship

For a Hume Scholarship recipient studying a Bachelor of Education (Secondary) at La Trobe’s Melbourne campus, receiving a Hume Multiversity Scholarship in 2022 gave her “the financial freedom to study hard without the stress of having to support myself financially”.

The support I have received from the Hume Scholarship program has felt like a breath of fresh air, it has reinvigorated my passion for achieving excellence in all facets of my life. As an older student returning to university, it is so encouraging to be supported and to have people believe in me. It helps me believe in myself and my path.”
