Will I be notified that my application has been received?
Yes. You will be notified by email when your application has been successfully submitted.

Can I be awarded more than one scholarship?
It depends on the particular scholarships as each scholarship has its own conditions which state whether the student can hold other scholarships or not.

This information is outlined in the eligibility criteria for each scholarship and it is incumbent upon the applicant to ensure they meet the criteria for each scholarship they apply for.

How are applications assessed?
Applicants must read scholarship criteria carefully before applying as scholarships are awarded based on the criteria for each scholarship.

Successful applicants are selected after a series of shortlisting processes, including a review by CSU staff.

From the final shortlist of strong applicants, it is up to a panel within the Division of International Education and Partnerships to determine the scholarship recipient(s).

Conditions of scholarship
The scholarship is conditional on the student completing their studies successfully at CSU. Up $10,000 or $5,000 will be deducted from tuition fees during the first year of study, after each session’s census date.

Should the student leave CSU after the first year of study for reasons deemed illegitimate by the University, the student may be liable to repay the value of the scholarship.

Recipients are expected to become active members of the student body and accept to provide information, testimonials and be featured in CSU Promotional materials.

When will my Scholarship be paid?
Scholarships are subject to the student maintaining satisfactory academic progress and continued enrolment in their course. If these conditions are not met, Scholarships may be suspended or terminated.

The Scholarship amount will be deducted from tuition fees at the commencement of session in the first year of study, after the census date.

Can I defer my scholarship offer?
This scholarship cannot be deferred. The student must commence study in session 1, 2018 (201830).

Can my scholarship be suspended or terminated?
Yes, if you fail to meet the criteria for your scholarship.

Termination of a scholarship will occur if the recipient is excluded from their course, if the recipient withdraws or cancels their enrolment or if the recipient fails to maintain satisfactory grades over a prolonged period. Scholarships will also be terminated if the recipient transfers to another university or location (campus) of study.

The recipient will be required to repay the scholarship amount.

Can I apply for an Approved Leave of Absence (ALA)?
For this particular scholarship, an Approved Leave of Absence will cause the scholarship’s termination. Should the student not return to study within 12 months, the recipient may be liable for the scholarship amount deducted from tuition fees.

When will I be notified of my applications outcome?
You should be notified before the end of December 2017 for February 2018 applicants, and May 2018 for July 2018 applicants.

What will happen after I am granted the scholarship?
If not done, you will need to accept your offer of study at CSU. You will still be required to meet GTE (Genuine Temporary Entrant) criteria, including financial capacity, and make the appropriate fee deposit to the University to receive a Confirmation of Enrolment.

How many scholarships are on offer?
There are 12 x $10,000 tuition fee scholarships and 10X $5,000 tuition fee scholarships on offer for the whole year on offer for 201760 commencing international students. Scholarships may not all be awarded if the applications are not meeting the required criteria.

Will I be considered as a commencing student if I am transferring from another CSU course or I am applying with advanced standing?
Typically, no. Please do contact us at internationalclient@csu.edu.au if you have any queries.
