In 2027, UniSQ will offer International Excellence Scholarships.  The scholarship is designed to reward and support high-achieving international students who have demonstrated outstanding academic performance and English language proficiency, and who are commencing their studies at UniSQ in the 2027 teaching year. International students across all fields of study, including undergraduate, postgraduate and research, are eligible for consideration. Each scholarship will provide a 15% reduction on tuition fees, applied directly to the recipient's tuition fees for the duration of their degree as outlined in their offer letter.

To be considered, prospective international students must: 

  • receive an offer for an eligible UniSQ award degree commencing in the 2027 teaching year
  • meet UniSQ's academic entry and English language requirements for the degree

For international students with Australian secondary qualifications:

  • ATAR of 90 or above; and
  • English (Units 3 & 4, C), or equivalent
