Scholarships and aid for international students
- Is merit considered automatically with the application?UnclearThe individual scholarships (South East Asia, COBL, Africa) seem to need no separate application, but no university-wide statement says merit is considered automatically with admission, so this stays Unclear.
- Is admission need-blind for international applicants?UnclearThe pages say nothing about whether admission decisions ignore an international applicant's ability to pay, so no conclusion can be drawn.
- Is the CSS Profile or a school aid form required?UnclearThe pages do not mention the CSS Profile or a separate international aid form. Only the Medibank Grant needs an expression of interest, which is a single grant and not a general rule.
