Three lucky VU students have won exclusive, money-can't-buy experiences with VU partners Melbourne Vixens, Western Bulldogs and Malthouse Theatre, after entering the 'Best Seats in the House' competition.
Selecting the winners was a tough task with almost 200 inspiring entries. In fact, students showed so much passion for the chance to win an experience with one of the three VU partners that we decided to award finalists also in each category, who will also receive a prize.
All winners and finalists will be contacted to discuss the allocation of prizes.
Congratulations again to all our winners and entrants. Stay tuned to see some pictures of their experience on social media.
