We are proud to support outstanding international students through a range of scholarships

Available for undergraduate, postgraduate, research and pathway students, a Griffith scholarship can ease the cost of study significantly, helping to cover expenses including tuition fees and living allowances, among others.

With several options offered year-round, our scholarships recognise eligible students with an outstanding academic history and the potential to make Griffith—and our community—a better place.

The financial aid that Griffith provides to international students facilitates endless possibilities, just as my Griffith Scholarship made my dream to study in Australia a reality. They believed in me first as a person and then as a student, allowing me to follow my personal passion in Psychology to help others struggling with cognitive disorders.
