Full tuition fees, return international airfare, a one-off A$5,000 establishment allowance, a Contribution to Living Expenses stipend of A$99.26/day (about A$36,230/year, effective from 1 January 2026), Overseas Student Health Cover, an introductory academic programme, and initial visa costs.
Important: which degree levels are offered depends on your country. For Indian citizens, for example, this programme is Master's-level only, not undergraduate. Australia's own scholarship policy explicitly excludes funding undergraduate study in fields already widely available at home, and India's large domestic undergraduate system means this scholarship isn't offered to Indian undergraduate applicants at all — don't apply expecting an undergraduate award. India is one of 8 partner countries (alongside Bangladesh, Bhutan, Maldives, Mongolia, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka) under the AASAM regional programme specifically, not the general Australia Awards country list most searches surface. Binding condition: you must leave Australia for a minimum of 2 years after your scholarship ends (cumulative — time spent back in Australia during this period extends it), tied to your student visa. Breaching this creates a debt to the Australian government for the full cost of your scholarship and is reported to the immigration department, which can affect future visa applications. Short visits under 3 months are possible only with a formal No Objection Letter from DFAT.
Australia Awards run as regional programmes with their own dates. For example, applicants from India, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Maldives, Mongolia, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka apply through 'Australia Awards — South Asia and Mongolia' (AASAM), administered by Palladium on behalf of the Australian government (australiaawardssouthasiamongolia.org). Find your own country's programme and current cycle dates on the official Australia Awards site.
