Griffith Remarkable Scholarship

Griffith University's Remarkable Scholarship is one of the more accessible automatic awards in Australia — a 25% tuition discount applied across the full duration of an undergraduate or postgraduate taught degree. The award is open to most Griffith programmes across all five campuses (Gold Coast, Nathan, Mount Gravatt, Logan, and South Bank). Griffith's strengths in hospitality, environmental science, criminology, and aviation make it a popular choice for Sri Lankan students looking at south-east Queensland.

How you are considered

Through your admission application. Awards like this are usually assessed automatically from the application you already submit — there is typically no separate scholarship form to fill in.

What it covers

25% Tuition Discount (Full Programme). This is a reduction in tuition, not a full ride. You still fund the remainder, plus living costs and the balance your visa requires you to show.

Where we come in

We make the admission application strong enough to be competitive — course choice, documents, references and deadlines. The funder makes the decision.

Looking for a scholarship because of the cost?

Then start here instead. Scholarships are competitive, usually partial, and decided by someone else — they are the least reliable way to make studying abroad affordable. Your destination and course choice move the number far more, and both are entirely within your control.
