This scholarship is also available to students undertaking Joint Research Awards when Monash University is the home institution.
International students can only be awarded a RTP Fees-Offset as part of a competitive selection process. Monash scholarships are very competitive and are awarded based on your academic record, any research outputs and prior research experience.
All domestic students commencing a graduate research degree at Monash are provided with a RTP Fees Offset.
If successful in receiving a RTP Fees-Offset, please ensure you familiarise yourself with the conditions and benefits as specified in the policy and procedures.
Application for graduate research scholarships is done at the time of applying for your course, unless you are already enrolled. Whether you are a new or current student, the same application process is used for both admission and/or scholarship via our Applicant Portal. You do not need to specify which scholarship you are applying as you are automatically considered for all graduate research scholarships (where eligible).
Many scholarships can have different application processes. Make sure to read the application details carefully and submit your application by the deadline.
If you are a new applicant, you must have obtained an invitation to apply from the relevant faculty before starting your application.
* Domestic students applying for a RTP Fees Offset only and not a living allowance scholarship (such as a RTP Stipend) do not need to submit an application for a scholarship.
