About the award
The UQ Graduate School Scholarship (UQGSS) is awarded to domestic and international students from Research Training Program (Australian Government) funding and UQ funding. The UQGSS will be awarded via a competitive scholarship round twice per year.
The UQGSS provides a living allowance and a tuition fee offset. For international applicants who will study in Australia on a student visa, the UQGSS also includes an allowance for single overseas student health cover.
Terms and conditions
A domestic part-time student with carer’s responsibilities, a medical condition or a disability, which prevents them from studying full time may be eligible for scholarship consideration, on a case by case basis.
Students can be considered for scholarship only twice. Consideration can be prior to enrolment, or in the first round after the confirmation milestone is achieved*.
In instances where the candidate is awarded a scholarship after commencement there will be no retrospective payments of this scholarship.
