Scholarships, Bursaries and Assistance for Current Residents (2nd year and above)
Henderson Country Student Scholarship for Returning Residents
This scholarship is awarded annually as a full-year full-fee paying scholarship. The Henderson Country Student Scholarship for Returning Residents requires the recipient to meet the financial need criterion (a hurdle criterion), whilst exemplifying the notion of “good character”, academic competency and contribution to community life. Benefactor Ben Henderson's intention was to give others a chance to succeed and to “do good” in the world.
Applications for the Henderson Country Student Scholarship (Returning Residents) are closed.
Bursaries
The Council of Lincoln College offers three bursaries each academic year in order to assist promising students who, because of economic hardship, could not otherwise afford to live in College.
The value of each bursary will be an 8 week remission of the fees paid by the particular bursary holder. This fee remission will be given in the form of four credits of equal value to the bursary holder's account during the academic year.

Frank Hambly Memorial Scholarship
The Frank Hambly Memorial Scholarships were established to commemorate the service to Lincoln College of the Reverend William Frank Hambly, M.A., D.D., Master of the College from its inception in 1952 to his death in 1972. The two scholarships are awarded to recognise and encourage academic excellence.
Jubilee Scholarship
The Jubilee Scholarship was instituted by the Council of the College to celebrate 50 years of continuous service to university students in South Australia since the opening of the College by the Methodist Church in 1952. The award has been made possible by the generosity of past collegians who have contributed to a Jubilee Scholarship Fund. The Scholarship is intended to reward all-round performance in terms of academic achievement and contribution to the community life of the College.

Colombo Spirit Scholarship
This scholarship, is to be awarded annually to a resident who embodies the wonderful spirit of the many Colombo Scholars who have made such an important contribution to Australian culture and to their home culture.
