Our International Excellence Scholarship is awarded to students who can demonstrate exceptional academic and extra-curricular achievement.
As well as looking at academic excellence, we’re interested in why you want to study at ARU, your career goals, work experience, and relevant activities you take part in outside your studies. We’ll ask you to write a short supporting statement when you apply for the scholarship.
Please note: this scholarship cannot be combined with any other scholarships or the international early payment discount.
