Eligibility
Applying for SALP
SALP has a limited intake, with the number of applicants far in excess of the places available. It is important that you are aware of your responsibilities during your time in the program.
As an Ambassador, you are representing the program and the University. It is vital that you find the time and inclination to meet your commitments. Please think carefully about why you would like to join the program before applying.
Student Ambassadors must be responsible and reliable. Students who have volunteered to assist with an activity, and for reasons beyond their control become unavailable for this activity, must contact the relevant Coordinator of the project as soon as possible.
Failure to attend training components will mean you cannot successfully complete the Student Ambassador Leadership Program.
Applications for the 2008 intake have now closed. Applications for the 2009 intake open in March 2009.
Eligibility
Each year 160 students are accepted into the program.
All University of Melbourne students are eligible to apply for the program if they are from one of these categories:
- 2nd or subsequent* year undergraduate students
- Postgraduate students not in their final year
- Architecture, Education, LFR, Music or Vet Science in first or subsequent* year
- Regional campus students not in their final year
* not final year
Not eligible:
- 1st year undergraduate students (except those from faculties stated above)
- Final year undergraduate or postgraduate students
Special applications
Students who study at a regional campus can apply for the off-campus stream of SALP. This stream does not require students to attend the weekly seminars. However, these students must attend all workshops held during the mid-semester 2 break. The University Service and Community Engagement components must also be completed.
Students wishing to apply for this stream must consult the SALP Coordinator before applying to enter into the program.
