The Global Scholars Program Scholarship is a Curtin University award: a one-off A$15,000 credit against tuition fees at Curtin Perth.
It goes to international students in the Global Scholars Program, who spend their first year at a Curtin campus in Malaysia, Singapore, Dubai, Mauritius or Colombo, then move to Perth to finish an undergraduate degree. Every accepted student is assessed automatically; there is no separate form.
Benefits & funding
- A$15,000 once, credited against tuition for the course at Curtin Perth.
- Kept only with full-time study, Good Standing and international student status.
- Cannot be held with another Curtin scholarship; withdrawing from the course or taking Credit for Recognised Learning breaches the terms and can see it revoked.
Eligibility
- International, fee-paying, non-sponsored student of any nationality except Australian.
- New to Curtin: students already enrolled at any Curtin campus are not eligible (Curtin points them to its Campus Transfer Program).
- In the Global Scholars Program, with 200 credits completed at a Curtin global campus within two study periods in a selected undergraduate course.
- Studying at least two years (minimum 400 credits) at Perth, in a course from Business and Law, Humanities, or Science and Engineering.
