Scholarships are awarded by a selection panel. Decisions are final and no correspondence will be entered into. The number of scholarships allocated is subject to total funds available within the 2023 postgraduate scholarship budget. Applications will be subject to cull, based on scholarship criteria and the provision of essential supporting documents within the required timeframe.
Scholarship applications are only able to be assessed based on the information provided by the applicant. If the applicant has written the wrong essay or submitted incomplete paperwork, then that is what will be assessed by the panel.
The responsibility to include the correct essay with the application form, and completed and signed paperwork, lies with the applicant.
All applicants will be notified by email by the end of January 2023.
Successful applicants will receive a single payment dependent upon the postgraduate qualification being undertaken. Scholarships are awarded as a contribution toward the cost of courses at the following levels:
People who receive funding from another source for the AMHS course of study may have their scholarship amount reduced or withdrawn. Please ensure you provide information about other scholarships or funding that you are receiving.
Letters via email will be sent to all applicants by the end of January 2023. Scholarship payments will be processed by the end of February 2023. Please note however unplanned delays can occur.
Scholarship funding is provided to assist applicants with educational expenses directly associated with their Health Education and Training Institute (HETI) enrolled AMHS course. You are not required to provide expenditure receipts, however, these should be retained by the applicant for taxation purposes.
Successful applicants who defer or withdraw from their AMHS course being studied in 2023 must notify HETI in writing within seven days. Full or partial repayment of scholarship funding may be required, subject to individual review.
Note: Students owing outstanding monies from previous scholarships will have the offer of the new scholarship withheld until the funds are repaid or if an overpayment is identified. If you elect to discontinue your course repayment may be required subject to individual review.
You must submit your application by the scholarship closing date of 2 December 2022. If your enrolment confirmation is unavailable at this time please indicate your intention to enrol and forward your enrolment as soon as possible.
No withholding tax has been deducted. Please seek independent tax advice on implications.
An FBT issue may arise with employees of the NSW public health system who receive funding from the NSW Ministry of Health. Please seek independent advice regarding your personal circumstances where necessary.
