Rate My Professor Roxann Tjea

Roxann Tjea serves as the Manager, Fees and Scholarships within Student Administration at Edith Cowan University. She maintains the currency of pertinent policies and provides advice on their content and related guidelines. As the primary contact for the Student Scholarships and Bursaries Policy (PL256, Issue 2, May 2021), she contributes to frameworks supporting student attraction, retention, and success based on merit, equity, and opportunity. The policy applies to staff creating or administering scholarships and bursaries, and to students accepting awards, excluding certain externally managed endowed scholarships. It defines bursaries as financial grants assisting with costs such as travel, accommodation, or textbooks; scholarships as grants recognizing academic merit, equity, or other achievements; and tuition fee scholarships as coverage of course fees. Procedures cover creation and approval by the Pro Vice-Chancellor (Education and Arts) or equivalent senior officer, acceptance conditions, financial management including payment schedules aligned with census dates, termination for reasons like misconduct, suspension, or failure to meet enrollment requirements, and confidentiality to protect privacy.
