How to Apply

The Peace Scholarship Program is committed to providing opportunities for eligible students in selected countries worldwide to study abroad in Australia for one or two semesters. The Program operates on the principle that providing this opportunity will promote the interaction of diverse cultures through international education opportunities, improve cross-cultural understanding and lead to enduring global peace. At a later stage, the Program will also provide opportunities for Australian students to study abroad.

 

IDP Education Australia is a major supporter of the Peace Scholarship Program both financially and by providing administrative support.

 

The Program aims to identify and reward students from participating countries by offering financial support to selected students for study in Australia.
