About the University of Sydney
The University of Sydney has a history of thinking forward, shaping change and improving lives from its foundation.
The founding principle as Australia’s first university was that it would be a modern and progressive institution. It’s an ideal the university still hold dear today.
When William Charles Wentworth proposed the idea of Australia’s first university in 1850, he imagined “the opportunity for the child of every class to become great and useful in the destinies of this country”.
The University of Sydney has stayed true to that original value and purpose by promoting inclusion and diversity for the past 160 years.

It’s the reason that, as early as 1881, women were admitted on an equal footing to male students. Oxford University didn’t follow suit until 30 years later, and Jesus College at Cambridge University did not begin admitting female students until 1974.
It’s also why, from the very start, talented students of all backgrounds were given the chance to access further education through bursaries and scholarships.
Today the University also offer hundreds of scholarships to support and encourage talented students, and a range of grants and bursaries to those who need a financial helping hand.
