Thomas Coltrona was also a worthy recipient of a UWA Fogarty Foundation Scholarship. This scholarship is the most sought after and prestigious scholarship that UWA offers to undergraduate students. There are only ten awarded state-wide, seven for metropolitan students and three for regional students. Recipients of the UWA Fogarty Foundation Scholarship to study at UWA are selected based on academic excellence and outstanding achievements in at least three of four categories; leadership, community involvement, the arts and sport. The UWA Fogarty Foundation Scholarships offer Western Australia’s brightest and most committed students a full scholarship for the entirety of their undergraduate degree, including honours.
