If you haven’t already started thinking about, and applying for, scholarships for next year, now is the time. Although many scholarships cater for a national or international audience the abundance of opportunity available at state level should definitely not be ignored.
Well it seems that at the forefront of student news and issues in this New Year are student competitions - with something for everyone. Poster competitions, architectural design, leadership, research and science competitions, engineering and even the student Oscars! If you aren’t interested in this kind of competition not to worry, competitions for student grants and scholarships are just around the corner and it’s never too soon to start preparing for those.
Interviews become an increasingly important aspect of student life as you progress through the years of study. Interviewing skills are not just important for jobs but for scholarship and course entry applications as well as research funds, proposals and thesis defence.
