The Kwong Lee Dow Young Scholars program is open to students from all Victorian and select interstate border schools, offering access to exclusive University events and academic enrichment activities for two years. It gives you the chance to get a taste of student life first-hand, as well as the opportunities to build strong peer networks that will support you throughout your final years of secondary school and during your transition to university.
