ANU HDR Fee Merit Scholarship

The ANU HDR Fee Merit Scholarship is offered annually by the Australian National University to support high achieving international Higher Degree Research (HDR) students who are conducting research which aligns with the strategic directions of the University. The scholarship is awarded concurrently with the ANU University Research Scholarship. The scholarship covers International Student Fees (ISF) for the duration of the award and, for recipients who hold a Student Visa (Subclass 500), provides full Overseas Health Cover (OSHC) for the program duration, including cover for immediate family. Payments are made for 4 years for PhD students and 2 years for MPhil students. Eligible candidates must be international students enrolling in an accredited HDR course of study at ANU, have been awarded an ANU University Research Scholarship, and have achieved a minimum of Honours 1 (H1) or H1 equivalent in their prior studies. No separate application is required as all eligible candidates are automatically considered based upon their application for admission. The scholarship is available across all fields of study and is awarded based on academic merit. International students must apply for admission by either 15 April or 31 August to be considered for the main round of scholarship offers.
