it was the david beer undergraduate s'ship for health sciences...and let me tell you, all i had to do to get this beauty was send in my birth certificate (i think, it was yonks back) and be from a rural area

it said on the offer letter that everyone who applied was of "high calibre" .... wtf? is my birth certificate something special?

well i guess they must have liked the envelope

hehe sorry. But there isnt a QUT one so i just have to hang around and post questions in other uni forums

Lol! that'd be right!

Doesn't make money any less nice though.

yeah he needs someone to get drinks when he is refused entry to customs before even really starting to drink, may as well be someone who can pay for them too

It isnt my fault that scotch is so lovely

I don't think I have ever heard scotch described as 'lovely' before. Suits it I suppose.

I didn't even think about checking offers on the internet.. i just presumed they would send a letter or something!! I got a equity scholarship for $4000!! YEEEHH! so excited! I think the whole of my street just heard me scream!!


AND the best bit!! it's not a one off payment... i get it every year as long as i'm at uni! yeeehh! (max 5 years)

 

[hipsta_jess]

Are you buying anything with it, or just having it there as money to use whenever?

I'm sure that when they chose you as for a scholarship, clothes and cars weren't the reason that they picked you.
