As the name implies, it is for foreign students based on the academic excellence of such students and as a form of recognition, rewards outstanding international students applying for undergraduate and postgraduate coursework programs at Griffith University.

Unlike the first,  it also demands academic excellence, but not as intensely. This International Student Academic Merit Scholarship requires and rewards high achieving international students applying for undergraduate and postgraduate programs at Griffith University.

Also, this scholarship waiver is lesser than the above, so if you don’t have very exceptional results but are still a high achieving student, then you can apply for this instead.

Like the first, this is also valid for your whole degree, however, it offers only a 20% discount on tuition fees

The eligibility requirements are the same as the above.

This is my favorite award by Griffith university because it offers the highest amount on discount.
