    Australia Award Scholarship 

    The scholarship is given by the Australian government's Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. It is a fully-funded scholarship that helps students from across the globe to study in Australia without putting a financial burden on themselves. The scholarship is given to both UG and PG students. There is a select list of institutions from which students can apply for this scholarship program. 
    The scholarship includes the following:

    • The tuition fee for studying in an Australian university. 
    • Payment for accommodation and study materials. 
    • The travel expenses from and to Australia. 
    • The living expenses of the student. 
    • The introductory academic program helps students develop skills like writing, speaking, and learning components that help students in their postgraduate education. 

    How to Get a Scholarship to Study Abroad for Indian Students?

    The first and foremost thing is to have an excellent academic track record. Almost 90% of scholarships give importance to academic performance. However, university-specific and country-specific scholarships factor in conditions like societal scenarios, financial constraints, and special circumstances like persecution. So, there can be non-academic criteria too for granting the scholarship. One such criterion is being exceptional at sports, as universities grant scholarships to students who represent them at sporting events. 

    Scholarships are either awarded by an educational institution or some independent body. The university will automatically consider you for a scholarship if you are eligible. On the other hand, the dates vary from one organization to another for independent bodies. The best way is to keep track of the scholarships for which you are planning to apply on their official website.
