Description
The ANU Students' Association's Parents and Carers grant is designed to assist undergraduate ANU students who are carers.
ANUSA recognizes that students who are carers can often face additional barriers to study dueto competing time priorities, increased financial commitments including childcare and at times barriers to connecting with the wider ANU community.
Benefits
ANUSA Parents and Carers Grant are for the value of a one off payment of between $250 and $1000 at the discretion of the committee.
ANUSA Parents and Carers Grants are awarded subject to the availability of funds. Students are eligible to apply for one Parents and Carers Grant per semester, unless unexpected and extenuating circumstances apply. The ANUSA Parents and Carers Grants operate separately and in addition to the ANUSA Emergency Grant Scheme.
