The Tuckwell Scholarship Program at ANU

Priya Gokani

Killarney Heights year 12 student, Priya Gokani, has accepted an offer for a 2023 Tuckwell Scholarship at The Australian National University (ANU).

The Tuckwell Scholarship Program at ANU is the most transformational undergraduate scholarship program in Australia. With a total scholarship package valued at up to $140,000, it offers funding to students for five years of full-time study; allowing them to take full advantage of their time at university, including the many academic, social, cultural, sporting and leadership opportunities that come with life on campus.

This year, the university received over 1000 applications for Tuckwell Scholarships. Priya was one of only 50 invited to interview in Canberra earlier this month, where she impressed the selection panel and was offered one of 25 Tuckwell Scholarship for 2023.

This is a tremendous achievement, and as such we are very proud that Priya was able to receive the prestigious Tuckwell scholarship and are sure that she will represent the Killarney community well.
