How to Select a University and Course of Study
DFAT’s website includes a full list of Australian institutions eligible to host scholars. You can also find the list here. You need to decide which institution you want to attend and choose an appropriate course. To find out about the content of specific courses, research the individual institution’s website. To find out about universities in Australia, please go to Study in Australia website.
You should choose two preferences when submitting the application for the Masters Awards and PhD Awards by providing the course’s CRICOS code in your application for each preference. You are encouraged to choose two different institutions rather than two different courses at the same institution. If your application for your first preference is unsuccessful, DFAT will forward your application to your second choice of institution. The CRICOS code for your course can be found on the Commonwealth Register of Institutions and Courses for Overseas Students (CRICOS) website.
