| SCHOLARSHIPS
FOR STUDY ABROAD: |
| Australia & New
Zealand Only Study Awards |
AUSTRALEARN offers
several scholarship opportunties for students
studying in Australia or New Zealand through
them. Awards range from $500 top $3,000. This
includes 10 Quantas Airlines awards that pay
for the travel. The scholarships are essay-based
(though GPA is also considered), so a student
who takes their time and writes a good set of
essays has a decent chance at getting some aid. Essay
topics are on financial need, extra-curricular
activities, and an explanation of why the student
wants to go abroad.
