    ANC AUSTRALIA INTRODUCES SCHOLARSHIP TO HASG STUDENTS

    SYDNEY: A delegation from the Armenian National Committee of Australia
    visited HASG College to introduce senior school students to the inaugural
    'ANC Australia Scholarship' last week.

    The scholarship was launched by ANC Australia in August 2007, to attract
    young Armenian-Australians into areas of study which are beneficial to the
    long-term future of the community and nation of origin. It will be available
    to three students who, in 2008, earn university degree entry in the fields
    of 'Political Science', 'Media' and 'History'.

    Year 11 and 12 students at Ingleside's HASG College met with project
    coordinator, Mr. Stephen Abolakian and ANC Australia President, Mr. Varant
    Meguerditchian for a question and answer session.

    "We were very pleased with the level of interest of the students, and
    believe they will now consider History, Political Science and Media as
    potential career paths following our visit," said Mr. Abolakian.


    The successful candidates for each area of study, who will be announced in
    February 2008, will be selected by a qualified judging panel, including
    experts and practitioners in each field of study and respected members of
    the Armenian-Australian community, ANC Australia announced as they released
    an Online Application Form (available at www.anc.org.au <http://anc.org.au/>
    ).

    The applicants' results in 2007, his/her current role in the community and
    general character will all form part of the selection criteria, and each of
    the three winners of the Scholarship will be awarded $2000.

    Further to the financial reward, each winner will be placed in a Work
    Experience environment for a selected period in an area relevant to their
    field of study, and each winner will also take part in a Work Experience
    program with an ANC Australia sub-committee relevant to their area of study.
