Support students
Help students overcome barriers to education
At Adelaide University, we believe education should be accessible to all, regardless of personal or financial circumstance. However, many students face significant challenges – ranging from financial hardship and geographic disadvantage to disability or unexpected life events – that can prevent them from undertaking or completing their studies.
By supporting student scholarships and hardship funds, you can help break down these barriers. Your generosity provides direct assistance for living and study expenses, crisis support during emergencies, and opportunities for students from underrepresented communities, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students.
Different ways to support students
