McLEAN SCHOLARSHIP OUTLINE

Robert McLean is a past student of Broken Hill High School. Robert and his wife Paula take great pleasure in establishing the McLean Foundation Scholarship to support students at Broken Hill High School. The aim of the scholarship is to help students achieve to their potential.

A scholarship of up to $15000 to assist with university expenses is being awarded to a student progressing from Year 12 to University. The scholarship will be paid in $5000 installments each year for up to 3 years. The scholarship will be administered and supported by the Country Education Foundation (CEF).

The foundation may add to the value of the scholarship depending on the University you attend. The scholarship will only be paid on confirmation of attendance. The money may be used to meet expenses associated with attending university such as course fees, accommodation, texts and educational resources.

Eligibility

Students must take up a university position in 2010 to be eligible. The scholarship can’t be deferred. Students will need to demonstrate that financial or other hardship may prevent them from attending university.

Application Process

Students are to fill out a McLean Foundation application form and return it to Mr. Ward by Wednesday the 4th of November. Students will then be interviewed by the CEF

Financial Management of the Scholarship

The scholarship will be managed by the Country Education Foundation. No purchases are to be made without approval. Details on how to access the bursary will be given to the recipient. Students will have to provide their academic record each year, as passing is another requirement to continue to receive the scholarship.
