UQ The Order of Australia Association Foundation Scholarship 2025

The Foundation, so far, has awarded 60 Scholarships to undergraduates in all States and Territories. 

The Awardee must provide a commitment that in the years to come, and subject to their availability, they would be willing to engage with fellow Alumni, as well as the activities of the Foundation and the Order of Australia Association.

A Round Table Conference will be held in late September 2025 at Admiralty House in Sydney with all Awardees, with press coverage organized.

Awardees are presented with their Certificate by the Governor-General or her representative at a gala Awards Ceremony associated with the Order of Australia Association’s Annual Conference Dinner.  The Awardee’s immediate family, the Scholarship Donor, the Mentor, and a University representative are also invited to the Awards Ceremony.  The Annual Conference will be held in Brisbane on 18 April, 2026.
