Congratulations to Tayla M Fieldus who is the Winner of the 2023 Choosi Futures Grant Program.

We’re delighted to let you know we’ve now started accepting applications for the 2024 Choosi Futures Grant, and welcome students who meet the eligibility criteria to apply. Good Luck!

Overview

Choosi is an insurance comparison service and we’re dedicated to helping Australians make more informed decisions when purchasing life insurance, funeral insurance, income protection insurance, pet insurance, car insurance, home and contents insurance, or business insurance. We do this by offering a free insurance comparison that enables customers to compare the benefits of a range of different policies across various insurance brands, so that they can choose a policy that suits their needs, lifestyle, and budget.

Choosi is passionate about helping to make a healthier Australia and as part of this commitment, we developed the annual Choosi Futures Grant Program – a financial assistance of $5,000 that’s offered to one lucky student enrolled in a full-time, accredited Australian education institution studying a certificate, diploma, degree, or traineeship in any of the following areas: Medicine, Health Sciences & Healthcare, and/or Specialist Healthcare.

We’re looking for submissions that reflect a true desire to improve the quality of people’s lives. It doesn’t have to be great prose (just honest and from the heart), so start thinking about the real reasons you’ve chosen the career path you have and then put them into words.

  • Proof of Identification;
  • Proof of enrolment, including course name, tertiary institution name and enrolment status;
  • Your response (max word count 500 words); and
  • Contact details (including residential address).

Selection process

The Winner of the Grant will be selected and awarded by a panel of judges from the Choosi team in their absolute discretion, on the basis of the entry that best grasps the challenge. The panel for the 2024 Grant will convene from November 15, 2024.
