Monash University Achieving Potential Support Scholarships for International Students 2023
International students who are interested and qualified may apply for Monash University Achieving Potential Support Scholarships in order to pursue an undergraduate or graduate degree there.
The Achieving Potential Support Scholarships are given to incoming and existing students whose academic successes may have been obscured by their personal circumstances. There is no set ATAR criteria; the scholarship is offered based on need.
If you are a recent immigrant, reside in a low socioeconomic, regional, or distant location, attend an under-represented school, have a handicap or chronic medical condition, or have gone through challenging personal circumstances, more attention will be given.
If you have a low income and want to study for an undergraduate or graduate degree at Monash, you could be eligible. The University has enhanced the number of these scholarships available as a result of the kind gifts made to the Achieving Potential fund by alumni and other supporters of the institution.
