Types of Scholarship Available in Australia


Each one of us at a certain time in our lives have thought of studying abroad but somehow we have always worried about the financial strain it may bring along. Studying abroad is a truly rewarding experience but living away from home can break a bank owing to high tuition fee and living costs in the host country.
 
However, a number of universities and host country governments offer a range of scholarships to help mitigate the cost factor. These scholarships cover tuition fee, living costs, and sometimes also offer a generous stipend to cover your day to day expenses.
