this is Valeriy Leletko. Welcome to Ask About Admissions screencast. Australia.

This country is one of the leaders on the international education market

hundreds of thousands of international students come annually to Australian

colleges and universities.

Far not every prospective international student

can pay for education in Australia on its own and they want to know

what financial aid offers this country to such studnets. Right now we go to

explore Australian scholarships for international students.

There are two major groups of scholarships: scholarships coming from Australian

Government

and scholarships coming from Australian educational institutions and

other organizations. The scholarships cover various educational sectors. Undergraduate

and post graduate study and research

vocational education and training and also student exchanges.

some scholarships partially cover expenses related to education but

there are more attractive full scholarships for international students

in Australia.

Let's get started searching for scholarships. Australian Government

scholarships for international students. Australian Government has done just

excellent job and created this site Australia awards dot G O V dot A U

that is a convenient entry point to start your search for Australian Government

scholarships for international students.

I click "participating countries"

and we can see that in general scholarship programs cover the entire

world. You can download printed version of the page and work

with the pdf version of the document off line

or scroll down and check out availability of a particular scholarship for your country.

Click on the name of a scholarship at the table header opens a page dedicated to

this particular program

at the moment i'm making this screencast this site doesn't cover two more

Australian Government scholarships for international students.

The first one is International Postgraduate Research Scholarships

IPRS

information on the scholarship program regulations

provides site Innovation dot G O V dot A U which is one of the official

Australian Government sites.

The second program which is not presented at the Australian Awards site

is Australian Postgraduate Awards. APA.

Information on this program can also be found on the site

Innovation dot G O V dot A U.

A short note.

Applications for IPRS and APA

should be made directly to participating universities.

this site provides just generic information about IPRS and APA.

Now when you know where to search for the Australian Government scholarships time

to get familiar where to search for

Australian universities scholarships for international students.

Again, thanks to care of the Australian Government there is an excellent

starting point for this search which is study in australia

dot G O V dot AU.

one thing I would like to mention about this site it's available in multiple

languages.

If to scroll down to the bottom

we can see language selection section here. At this moment the site is available in

twelve different languages. No doubt

it gives some additional convenience

but the major point of our interest here is this tiny phrase

find a scholarship

and I click it.

When the page loads we can see a minor disappointment here that this page

is only available in English but it's still OK

because it's so time saving when at a single place

in a few mouse clicks you can create a quiery and get a customized list

of scholarships

that match your parameters.

This page provides an interface and gives you an opportunity to search in a

comprehensive database.

The database is kept up to date and gives you results related to all

possible scholarships coming from Australian universities and other

organizations.

international students studying in Australia.
