The Alex McVitty Memorial Award
The Memorial Award provides financial assistance of £1,500 towards living expenses. One award each year is offered to a full time home or overseas applicant on the following programmes of study who wishes to develop a career in law librarianship and can demonstrate financial need. All prospective students for the two programmes of study below are interviewed by Admissions Tutors, and applications for the award can be discussed at that point.
MSc Information Science
MA/MSc Library Science
History of the award: Alex McVitty studied for an MSc in Information Science at City University London in 1997-98. Tragically Alex died in a road accident whilst cycling to her work as a law librarian. As Alex had to fund herself through the course, combining study with part-time library jobs, her family and friends chose to establish a memorial fund to provide an annual award to help a student wishing to pursue a career in law librarianship. The memorial award fund is administered by The British and Irish Association of Law Librarians. Tel: 020 7040 0248

The Educational Charity of the above company provide an annual bursary worth £6,000 to support an applicant on the following programme of study at City University London. The award is open to persons under 25 years of age on 1st May. Residency requirements apply.
Patrick Shorten, Chairman of the Trustees of the Educational Charity said "The world wide web is a world apart from the manuscript books produced by the booksellers and limners of the original Guild in 1403. But The Stationers' Company seeks to remain as relevant and representative to its members as it ever has. E-publishing is clearly here to stay and at City we know that the education and skills our bursary holder will gain will be the best to equip them in their new media career."
The School of Informatics will select candidates for the award from applicants who are made an offer of a place on the programme before the summer. Candidates for the award will be invited to an interview with staff from the School of Informatics and the Educational Charity of the Stationers' and Newspaper Makers' Company.

Application forms and information booklets are available at the Equity Scholarships page at UAC:http://www.uac.edu.au/equity/equityschols.html
Equity Scholarships include the Commonwealth Scholarships Programme (CS) established by the Australian Government, and Institution Equity Scholarships (IES) established by individual institutions.

Commonwealth Education Costs Scholarships (CECS-Ordinary) with up to four years of funding available, to assist with general education costs.
Indigenous Access Scholarships (CAS-Indigenous payment) through a once-only scholarship payment, to assist Indigenous students to undertake either an eligible enabling course or an undergraduate course. Each provider awarding an IAS to a student must provide the student with an on-going Commonwealth Education Costs Scholarship (CECS) and, where eligible, a Commonwealth Accommodation Scholarship (CAS).
CSU Equity Scholarships as a one year payment for general education costs.
Applications for these scholarships are made via ONE application form and applications are asssessed by UAC using stringent criteria. Students do not need to signify which scholarship they are applying for. A centralised assessment scheme at UAC assesses all applications and then allocates the appropriate scholarships based on the criteria. For example, all applications are assessed for the Commonwealth Accommodation Scholarships (CAS). Applicants who do not receive or are not eligible for a CAS are then placed into the pool for a Commonwealth Education Costs Scholarships (CECS). Those who do not receive a CECS then go into the pool for CSU Equity Scholarship.
In 2008 the Equity Scholarships scheme will include:
162 new Commonwealth Accommodation Scholarships valued at $4,324 each

Scholarships for International Students
You will undoubtedly encounter several scholarship matching services that, for a fee, will offer to search a database of scholarships for awards that match your profile. Unfortunately, the vast majority of awards in these databases are restricted to US citizens and permanent residents. Don't waste your money on such services.
The following databases are dedicated to listing scholarships for international students in specific countries. You should also consider searching the free databases of scholarships on the www.FinAid site, since some of them include scholarships for international students. The www.FastWeb database, in particular, has good coverage of the awards available for international students.
A word of caution: If a scholarship has an application fee, don't apply. If you have to pay money to get money, it is probably a scam. For more information about scholarship scams, the unclaimed aid myth, and related topics, see the Scholarship Scams section of the FinAid site.
