"I wouldn't have the career I have now, it's as simple as that."
QUT Business graduate, Taber Silver, had dreams to pursue a career in Business and Finance, driven by his aspirations to build a life with financial stability. To achieve his goals he knew he had to leave his rural home town and sustain a living on his own.
Taber, who was financially distressed when he applied to study at QUT, remembers how his Learning Potential Fund scholarship provided him the opportunity to move to a new city and get a job. Without this support he acknowledges that such a feat would have been beyond his reach.
Now a highly accomplished senior business analyst, Taber credits his career success to the generosity of QUT supporters who helped to fund his scholarship.
"If I didn't get the opportunity through the Learning Potential Fund to go to university, I wouldn't have the career I have now, it's as simple as that."
We urgently need your support to unleash the potential for more deserving students like Taber.
