Scholarship Succes

CLAIRE JUKES (2022)

Claire is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Advanced Science (Honours) and a Diploma of Japanese at Griffith University. As a Year 12 student, she was determined to combine her love for chemistry and Japanese but was unsure of where to study. Recognising the importance of a strong university experience, she actively pursued scholarships. The Sir Samuel Griffith scholarship, valued at up to $24,000, provided her with financial security and valuable professional growth opportunities. Membership in the Griffith Honours College will allow Claire to receive one-on-one mentoring from industry professionals, engage in overseas study and work experiences, receive industry-specific training, and pursue funded research projects. Claire expressed deep gratitude to Loreto for their support and eagerly anticipates a bright future ahead.
