Australian National Scholarship

The Australian National Scholarship is an access scholarship program offered by the Australian National University to provide financial support to talented students from disadvantaged backgrounds. Each year, ANU offers up to 50 awards to prospective domestic undergraduate students who face barriers to higher education. The scholarship provides a stipend of $8,000 per annum for up to five years, paid at the beginning of each semester. The program aims to support students who experience financial hardship, are Indigenous Australians, have long-term medical conditions or disabilities, hold refugee status, or attended low ICSEA schools (schools below 900 on the Index of Community Socio-Educational Advantage). Recipients must maintain academic performance for ongoing eligibility. Note that the scholarship is currently unavailable.
