Welcome to the home page of the Rhodes Scholarships in Australia. Here you will find a brief history of the scholarships, eligibility requirements and academic standards expected of applicants for the scholarships, contacts for advice and further information, and just how different you may find life at Oxford compared with university life in Australia.

Please note that applicants are expected to apply through their home state. While these pages contain general information for all applicants they also serve as the source of advice for applicants from New South Wales. All other applicants should refer to the scholarship pages in their home state for more specific details on how to apply.

Australian Scholarships 2

Australian Scholarships brings together and expands existing scholarship programs in the Asia-Pacific and Middle East regions that are managed by the Australian Agency for International Development (AusAID) and the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations (DEEWR). Further information can be found at www.australianscholarships.gov.au

There are three programs available under Australian Scholarships. They are:

Endeavour Awards – The Endeavour Awards is the Australian Government’s internationally competitive, merit-based scholarship program providing opportunities for citizens of the Asia-Pacific and Middle East regions to undertake study, research and professional development in Australia. Awards are also available for Australians to do the same abroad. A smaller number of Awards are available for participants from Europe and the Americas. The Endeavour Awards provide individuals with a unique opportunity to further their academic or professional careers. Further information can be found at: www.endeavour.deewr.gov.au

Australian Leadership Awards (ALA) – focus on developing leaders who can influence social and economic policy reform and development outcomes in both their own countries and in the Asia-Pacific region. ALAs provide scholarship support for postgraduate studies in Australia and short-term fellowship opportunities in specialised research, study or professional attachments through participating Australian organisations. Further information can be found at: www.ausaid.gov.au/scholar

Australian Development Scholarships (ADS) – aim to contribute to the long-term development needs of Australia's partner countries to promote good governance, economic growth and human development. ADS provides people with the necessary skills and knowledge to drive change and influence the development outcomes of their own country, through obtaining tertiary qualifications at participating Australian institutions. Further information can be found at: www.ausaid.gov.au/scholar
