Australian Development Scholarships (ADS) provide opportunities for people from selected developing countries to undertake post-secondary level study in Australia.
ADS have replaced most scholarships previously offered by AusAID, namely Australian Sponsored Training Assistance Scholarships (ASTAS) and Australian Development Cooperation Scholarships (ADCOS).
Australian Development Scholarships allow people to gain knowledge and skills which will help the development of their home country when they return home after finishing their study.
There are two categories of scholarships:
Public sector: Governments in partner countries nominate candidates for the public sector category.
Open/equity: Applicants do not need to be nominated by their Government or employer. Anyone who meets the selection criteria may apply.
You are only eligible for an Australian Development Scholarship if you are a citizen of one of the countries listed below. If your country of citizenship is not listed below and you wish to consider other scholarship opportunities to study in Australia, information is available at http://studyinaustralia.gov.au/Sia/en/StudyCosts/Scholarships.htm
Enquiries about scholarships should be made with the Australian Diplomatic Mission in the country of citizenship.
For example, scholarship information for citizens of Indonesia is only available from the Australian Diplomatic Mission in Jakarta.
Diplomatic Missions in other countries or AusAID Offices in Australia cannot provide country specific information about the availability of scholarships.
The postal address for the Australian Diplomatic Mission is available by clicking on the 'City' indicated below.
