Who is eligible
Commencing international undergraduate students who hold an unconditional offer. Awarded on academic merit, with quotas by course and region, and weighted toward students from countries where cost is a barrier.
The University of Melbourne's main entry scholarship for international bachelor students. It sponsors 25 percent of tuition for the full duration of the course, and around 110 are awarded each year.
There is no separate form. Every eligible applicant with an unconditional undergraduate offer is automatically assessed on merit.
Eligibility is restricted to citizens of countries with a World Bank GDP per capita of US 10,000 dollars or less, on top of the course and regional quotas. Melbourne has flagged a change from 2027 onward: the scholarship count expands to around 225, but the sponsorship drops to a flat 20 percent (still for the full duration of the course). A 2027-entry applicant should check the current terms before relying on today's 25 percent figure.
