The John Vickery Scholarships are available to 2nd or 3rd year students enrolled in either Painting or Drawing who demonstrate financial need and haven't been the recipient of any major scholarship or award offered at the Faculty. Please ensure you only apply for an award for which you are eligible. All applicants must be a current student at the Faculty of Fine Arts and Music.
This application consists of the following:
- Personal details
- Course details
- Scholarship questions
- Document uploads
- Agreement and submission
You can save your application and return to it during the application period, however uploaded documents will not be saved for partial submissions. Applications will not be accepted or accessible after 5PM (Victorian time) on the closing date.
Scholarship Application and Financial Need Assessment
You are strongly encouraged to complete 2 separate steps. The Student Financial Assistance Application has an earlier closing date as it is managed centrally (not by this Faculty). Please allow enough time to complete both forms. You will still be considered for this scholarship without the Student Financial Assistance Application, but it is your best interest to complete both forms to significantly maximise your opportunity for funding. You only complete Step 2 once per year (unless you wish to update your financial details).
PLEASE NOTE: Step 2 (the Student Financial Assistance Application) is not compulsory for consideration to these Faculty scholarships. It is just in your best interests to complete it. If the closing date for Step 2 has passed, please still apply for this scholarship, you will still be considered.
Step 1 Scholarship Application
Complete this form. The link for the second step, detailed below, will be emailed to you on submission of this form. You will still be considered for scholarships if you only complete step 1 however, completing step 2 will enable you to be considered for other, University-wide funding (there is a strict closing date for submission of step 2).
Step 2 Student Financial Assistance Application
To assist with the assessment your application you are required to submit an online Student Financial Assistance Application by 5PM (Victorian time) 8 March 2026. The Student Financial Assistance Application tool is used for consideration for all of the University's Student Grants. These are awards ranging from $200 to $10,000 per annum and are not aligned with any particular Faculty or degree.
