Scholarships, Prizes and Awards

Donors generously provide funds to the Western Sydney University to recognise students' achievements in academic excellence, service to the community, excellence in personal and professional development, or peer leadership.

A Mid-Year Prize Ceremony (evening) is held to recognise the academic excellence of graduates from the Nursing and Midwifery School and Science and Health School as well as School of Medicine MD Years 1, 2 and 3 students. Dean's Medal recipients from each school are also awarded at this Ceremony.

Prizes for MD Years 4 and 5 students are awarded at a School of Medicine Academic Year Prize Ceremony held at the conclusion of Conference Week 10 (usually first Friday in December).
