How to apply

You can apply for these scholarships at any time of the year, as scholarships are awarded all year round.

To be considered for a scholarship, you must:

complete your application for admission in postgraduate research to the relevant faculty, and select the checkbox to be considered for research scholarships
ensure your application includes all relevant supporting documents, referring to the RTP/UPA applicant information pack and research experience guide and evidence template (see related documents below).

If you are a current student at the University of Sydney, you will need to apply for the scholarship here.

Unsuccessful applicants are encouraged to reapply if their situation changes (such as the publication of an article or further related professional experience).

For information on issues such as deferment, key dates and eligibility, please see our frequently asked questions (FAQs).

Document submission requirements

Academic transcripts

If you are a current student who has previously studied at another university, you must provide copies of your transcripts with your RTP application (even if you have already provided them with your application for entry into the degree).

Evidence of publications, output in the arts or music, professional experience

If we cannot verify your publications, they cannot be counted towards your application. See the research experience guide (pdf, 410KB) for details on what you need to provide with your application, and the format to be used.

English language requirements

Please note that results of English Language Proficiency Tests including IELTS, TOEFL and PTE are not required to assess your scholarship application. You may need to submit these documents to the Admission Office for your admission application.

Scanned documents

The University accepts scanned documents submitted online in support of applications for admission to courses of study and photocopy of documents for RTP applications.

All supporting documents must be true and complete records. You should be prepared to provide original documents or original certified copies of supporting documents upon request at any time.

Detailed checking of supporting documents is an inherent element of our admissions and scholarship ranking processes and may involve contacting the original issuing authority or relevant tertiary admissions center, or other organization (whether education or otherwise), or individual, whether in Australia or overseas, to verify documents.

A failure to provide documents on request, or the discovery of either fraudulent documents or misrepresentation of true circumstances in association with your application, may lead to the rejection of your application for admission/scholarship, the withdrawal of your offer, or the cancellation of your enrolment.

Documents submitted in a language other than English must be accompanied by a complete English translation. The University accepts translations to English made by an accredited translator with a government body, the Registrar of the issuing institution.

Follow these steps to apply for a research degree as a domestic or international research student.
