The scholarship is $10,000 per annum. The award is paid in equal instalments at the beginning of each semester providing the recipient passes in all courses each semester or session. The award payment will align to the recipient's academic study load. For example, 24-unit enrolment constitutes 100% award payment; 18-unit enrolment constitutes 75% award payment, etc.

If there is no candidate of sufficient merit among the prospective student pool, the selection committee will consider continuing CBE students that meet the eligibility criteria, and award the scholarship to a second (or third) year student.

The scholarship will be offered in Semester 1 only.
