Benefits & Financial Support
AUD 10,000, (approx. ₹14.9 Lakh+)
The ANU Chancellor's International High Achiever Scholarships provide a tuition fee reduction of 25% or 50% for the entire duration of an eligible undergraduate or postgraduate coursework degree. This reduction is applied directly to the recipient's tuition fees at the beginning of each semester. Recipients may also be required to pay a reduced tuition deposit of AUD 10,000, instead of the standard deposit amount, as listed on their admissions offer letter. The actual monetary value in INR will vary significantly based on the specific program's tuition fees. As an estimation, a 50% reduction on an average annual international tuition fee of AUD 45,000 would equate to approximately INR 12,15,000 (at an approximate exchange rate of 1 AUD = 54 INR). There is no mention of Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) to Aadhaar-seeded accounts, as this is an international scholarship.
