Established to recognise and support members of the Defence community pursuing higher education, the Soldier On Scholarship is valued at $5,000 and supports up to two eligible students each year.

Participants can also apply for Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL), subject to course requirements and credit limits, as well as access tailored support and benefits.
