Australian Development Scholarships
Australian Development Scholarships (ADS) are long term development awards

needs of Australia's partner countries in line with bilateral and regional
agreements. They provide opportunities for people from developing countries to
undertake full time undergraduate or postgraduate study at participating
Australian universities and Technical and Further Education (TAFE)
institutions.
The study and research opportunities provided by ADS develop skills and
knowledge of individuals to drive change and contribute to the development
outcomes of their own country.

generally apply:
- full tuition fees

- establishment allowance—a once only payment of A$5,000 as a contribution towards as accommodation expenses, text books, study materials

ADS conditions
Applicants who are offered an Australian Development Scholarship will be
required to sign a contract with the Commonwealth of Australia declaring that
they will comply with the conditions of the scholarship and the ADS Handbook.
Partner governments may also apply their own separate conditions to the
scholarship.
Awardees are required to return to their country of citizenship for a
minimum of two years after completing their scholarship, to contribute to the
economic and social development of their country. Failure to do so will incur a
debt to the Commonwealth of Australia for the total cost of the scholarship.
