8. Scholarship termination

8.1 Grounds for scholarship termination

The CSU may terminate your scholarship if you have:

  • discontinued from your course or have inactive enrolment
  • failed to meet the eligibility criteria and conditions of your scholarship
  • failed to maintain satisfactory academic progress
  • failed to provide banking details by the due date
  • been suspended or excluded for misconduct under Monash statutes and regulations; or
  • been made an incorrect scholarship offer as determined by Monash in its sole discretion
  • been made an offer for a higher value scholarship/grant.

8.2 Consequences of termination

If your scholarship is terminated, you will not receive any further payments. You may be required to repay some or all of your scholarship.

8.3 Repayment of your scholarship

You are required to repay your scholarship within four weeks of receiving notice from the CSU.

This will occur if:

  • the payment is made to you in error or you have been overpaid
  • you are no longer enrolled in the semester the scholarship is paid
  • you do not meet the conditions of the scholarship or are ineligible for the scholarship (including situations where you have provided false information under 8.4); or
  • you have been made a scholarship offer in error.

If you fail to repay your scholarship, your student account may be encumbered. This means you cannot access library, computer or enrolment services. You will not receive your exam results, request academic records (transcripts) or graduate. We'll notify you in writing if this happens. Clearing an encumbrance usually involves paying the amount owed to the University. Payments may take up to three working-days.

8.4 Providing false information

The awarding of your scholarship is based on the information that you provide to Monash. Your scholarship may be withdrawn at any stage if you provide incorrect, false or misleading information or withhold relevant information. This includes circumstances where the false information is unrelated to the assessment in awarding the scholarship.
