FAQ

What happens if I do less than 40 units in a semester?

Scholarship payments are made on a pro-rata basis, which means you get paid based on the number of units you do. As the Ma & Morley Scholarship Program, we have an understanding that our Scholars’ unique circumstances and responsibilities don’t always allow for full-time study. Life will throw curve balls! To accommodate this, we allow students to study any number of units per semester, and we make payments based on each semester’s course load. Please reach out if you have any questions 

How will my grades affect payments?

Because payments are made prior to you completing your units, if you are to withdraw from a course after Census date or if you fail a course, you will have been overpaid for completed units. The overpayment for that withdrawn or failed course will then be deducted from your next payment. This means if you withdraw or fail a 10-unit course, and study 40 units the next semester, you will only be paid for 30 units of study.

You must always let the program team know if you are on a path to failing any of your courses. This enables us to help you navigate the options open to you and also help you with any support services you might need. Please let us know with plenty of timing, so that we have more options to offer you!

Make sure that you’ve finalised your enrolment –dropping courses after the Census date will incur a financial penalty from the University. Reach out if you have questions.
