I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to study at the University of Melbourne, which changed my life profoundly. The provision of various grants, paid-for accommodation on the rural placements, and reduced fees due to having a Commonwealth Supported Place, have enabled me to access opportunities that I otherwise would never have been able to seize.
