Scholarships
Providing scholarships to Australian and overseas students is one of a number of measures Worldview is pursuing to meet the needs of a new generation of potential cross-cultural workers.
We would like to offer scholarships to Australian students who meet the appropriate acceptance criteria to allow them to graduate debt free.
We recognise, also, that many overseas applicants have a passion to train for cross-cultural ministry but find themselves constrained by finances.
The number of scholarships on offer changes from year to year and information will be updated on this page as scholarships become available.
Scholarship Criteria
Applicants for scholarships must:
- meet all the acceptance criteria for Worldview-Melbourne School of Theology training
- demonstrate financial need
- overseas applicants will also need to satisfy all requirements of the Australian Department of Immigration and Border Protection
