The University's decision on the allocation of the Scholarship is in accordance with the terms and conditions and is final. There's no appeals process.
Alternative discounts and scholarships

Make sure you read and understand the scholarship terms and conditions before you accept, as an alternative University discount or scholarship may be more suitable for you.
