Apply

Applications for the 2021 ABCN Scholarships closed on 27 August. We warmly thank all schools and students from around the country for their applications.

Scholarship update: The applications have now proceeded to marking, and it is already shaping up to be one of the most challenging years we have had to judge. This year is set to be the biggest year for our three year leadership and mentoring program ‘Accelerate‘ – we will be awarding 40 scholarships and an additional 25 ‘highly commended’ awards. 

‘The opportunities students receive in this program are unlike anything I have experienced. It allows students to network with corporate leaders who can broaden students’ mindsets and provide them career opportunities in the future.’
– Jessica, 2016 scholar
