1 Search and apply for as many scholarships as possible.
There are thousands of
scholarships available for international students to study in Australia, so do not limit your search. Search by institutions, search by departments, search by colleges, search by governmental bodies, search by private organisations, regional areas and finally search by country base. There are many countries that offer opportunities for their citizens to come and study in Australia. In some cases, Universities might offer you a place but with limited scholarship positions. Its your duty to work more harder to secure one of these positions.
You must keep in mind that Scholarships are very competitive. Refer to our post on
scholarship portals/sources to study in Australia if you haven't. Here you will find a list of institutions, organisations and individual bodies offering scholarships to study in Australia. You will equally have access to all universities in Australia scholarship portals directly in front of you

candidates of exceptional research potential undertaking a Higher Degree by Research (Doctorate or

general living costs of the candidate but also as a tuition wave. Read more about research scholarship eligibility and research potentials here on

3 make sure to keep as many referees as possible for recommendations.
As a personal experience it was not easy getting all the referees. This is why we recommend you to secure all your referees ahead of time before the application period. Inform them months earlier, so as to give them enough time to be ready for you when the application period starts. Follow them up and remind them again few weeks before the application period. Contact as many referees as possible to increase your chances. Referees could be any of your supervisors from school, co-workers, a superior from work etc.. see how to contact supervisors here👉

4 Do not hesitate to ask for assistance from friends, supervisors for your application.
Another major tip here to help you secure a scholarship is to get assistance from friends.co-workers or supervisors. Do not hesitate to ask them to review your proposal, your application and make corrections. Scholarships applications should be error free. It is important to consider this please.

5 Before submitting your application revised it as many times as possible.
Even though you must have gotten assistance from friends,supervisors,co-workers or family to review your application ,however, before the final application submission ,revised it again ….. and again. After completing most of my applications, i took about a week to read through, re-read, again.... and again before submitting. This is being done to make sure it error free. This explains why you must start your application process on time so as to reduce any deadline pressure.
I also recommend you using grammar editing, spelling and plagiarism check software.
Grammarly is the popular one use these days by most students. It is highly recommended plus its free.
