Youth off the streets

National Scholarship Program

The National Scholarship Program celebrates the talents and strengths of young people in Australia who exhibit extraordinary promise but lack the support and resources to fulfil their potential. Every year over 35 young people throughout Australia are awarded Youth Off The Streets Scholarships valued at $6,000 to pursue further education or training and work towards a positive future. In addition, each recipient receives an individual mentor who provides guidance and support during their scholarship. Scholarship program staff assist the recipients with difficulties they may face such as budgeting expenses, housing, employment, healthcare, counselling and other service referrals.

Who can be nominated?

Nominations are invited from any young person in Australia who is aged 16 to 21 inclusive (as at 20 September 2026) with genuine desire, ability and/or determination in any education or training course, including (but not limited to): academic; visual or performing arts; sport; trades; and music. 

Further details surrounding eligibility criteria can be found on our website.

Nominations must be made by the young person themselves; however, assistance in completing the nomination is encouraged.

Please visit here for further information, read the Nomination Guidelines & Conditions and complete a 2026 National Scholarship Program Application Form.

Nominations close at 4pm on Friday 15 May (today) 2026. No late applications will be accepted.
