University of Adelaide Global Academic Excellence Scholarship (50%)

About this scholarship

The University of Adelaide Global Academic Excellence Scholarship is a 50% tuition-fee reduction for high-achieving international students commencing an undergraduate or postgraduate coursework degree at the University of Adelaide, one of Australia's leading research universities (a member of the Group of Eight). The scholarship reduces international tuition fees by 50% for the minimum standard full-time duration of the recipient's program as stated on the Offer of Admission, making it a substantial partial award (students still fund the remaining tuition and living costs). It is open to commencing direct-entry international students — including those who must first complete a Pre-Enrolment English Program — who are citizens of any country except Australia and New Zealand, and it is available for study in any discipline. The key requirement is academic merit: applicants generally need a high GPA (around 6.8 on a 7.0 scale, or a comparable equivalent from their previous studies) for entry to an undergraduate or postgraduate award program. A major convenience is that there is no separate application — the scholarship is automatically assessed and awarded during your application for admission to a degree program, so meeting the academic threshold is what matters.

Eligibility

• Be a commencing direct-entry international undergraduate or postgraduate coursework student
• Be a citizen of any country except Australia and New Zealand
• Meet the academic-merit threshold (around GPA 6.8/7.0 or comparable)
• Be studying in any discipline (a Pre-Enrolment English Program is allowed)
• No separate application — awarded automatically during admission
