About the scholarship
The Learning Potential Fund provides support through scholarships and bursaries to students in financial need.
Ms Nina Alahakoon and Dr Hamid Amini-Moghadam established this Learning Potential Fund Scholarship in 2022 to support international students experiencing financial challenges to complete their undergraduate degrees to the best of their ability. As students who came from overseas to study here in Australia, Nina and Hamid know first-hand the challenges faced by international students during their studies.
