John Monash Scholarships

The John Monash Scholarship is awarded annually to outstanding Australian graduates to support them with postgraduate study (master's or PhD) at the world's best universities. The Scholarship is not limited by age, gender, academic field of study or choice of university, with successful applicants having demonstrated excellence in their field, leadership potential and a vision for how they can contribute to a better Australia. The scholarship provides funding for Australian citizens who have completed an undergraduate degree at an Australian university to pursue full-time postgraduate study at an accredited university outside Australia. Applicants must demonstrate excellence through outstanding academic results, prizes, awards, publications, performances, exhibitions, or professional achievements. Leadership experience or potential through studies, professional environments, or community engagement is essential. Recipients are expected to clearly articulate how their study and future leadership will benefit Australia and the world. The scholarship is proudly supported by the Australian Government, private sector organisations, universities and individuals.
