About this scholarship

The Harvard Travel Scholarship was established to assist high performing undergraduate students who have applied to study at Harvard as part of the Visiting Undergraduate Student (VUS) Program. Each Scholarship is awarded to encourage high performing undergraduate students to undertake a period of study towards their UNSW degree at Harvard University. The Harvard VUS application is open from Mid-February 2026 for the 2026 fall/ full academic year intake, students that have received notification of admission are required to upload their admission under supporting documents, as evidence of entry into Harvard University. As Harvard is not a partner university within the UNSW Exchange Program applicants must contact Harvard College directly regarding admission to the VUS program. The scholarship will be tenable for one semester of study at Harvard. Applicants must apply for Cross Institutional Study and have their course matches approved to ensure the credits are applied back to their UNSW program. Please note: A partial repayment of any scholarship money awarded may be required if the candidate does not complete the one semester of study. Scholarship recipients may choose to study at Harvard for more than one semester at their own expense. Applicants should be aware that the Scholarship payment is a contribution towards study and living costs at Harvard and that separate funding will be required to cover the balance.
