Over Tuckwell Talks Podcast: Conversations with Scholars

The Tuckwell Scholarship Program is like no other undergraduate scholarship program in Australia. We award up to 25 Scholarships each year and offer talented and motivated students the opportunity to realise their potential by providing financial support, personal enrichment and development opportunities. Most importantly, Scholars can connect with and learn from one another within our home on campus, Scholars House.
