Tuckwell Scholarship for 2026

Australian National University (ANU) launched the Tuckwell Scholarship Program in 2013. The Tuckwell Scholarship Program at the ANU is the most transformational undergraduate scholarship program in Australia. A Tuckwell is not just about a students’ intellect. It is also about their desire and determination to use their natural abilities to realise their full potential so that they can make a difference in the world. All up one could say, this is no ordinary scholarship!

Scholarships are awarded based on four criteria:

academic potential and achievements to date;
other significant achievements to date, of any type;
demonstration of the attributes of a Tuckwell Scholar; and
a desire to eventually give back to Australia

Although applications will only open in early March 2025 (tbc), current Year 11 students who believe they meet the eligibility criteria for this scholarship, are encouraged to browse Tuckwell Scholarship and the 2026 Application Booklet to find out more.
