C.A.S. Hawker Scholarships are one of the most generous privately funded scholarships available to undergraduate students in Australia. Each residential scholarship is valued at up to $75,000 over three years. The scholarships are available to all Australian students. The majority have been awarded to students entering their first year of university studies.
Selection is largely based on personal and academic qualities as well as leadership potential, demonstrated through the contribution made to their school and wider community. Preference is given to applicants aspiring to a career in public affairs, politics and/or community service.
Undergraduate Hawker Scholars can attend a range of Australian educational institutions listed on the website. Applications are submitted online, via the website. The Trustees usually award up to four scholarships each year.
The C.A.S. Hawker Scholarship perpetuates the memory of scholar, soldier and pastoralist Charles Allan Seymour Hawker (1894-1938) and commemorates the achievements of one of Australia’s most respected statesmen.
Past presenters of C.A.S. Hawker Scholarships have included Governors-General, State Governors, an Australian of the Year and State Premiers.
