About the scholarship

The AUT Business School is pleased to be able to offer a scholarship to enable postgraduate Business students to undertake an international exchange at a business school at an international partner business school. The aim of the Business International Exchange Scholarship is to offer assistance to students when, due to financial circumstances, it would be difficult for them to undertake an exchange.

How To Apply

Application is through the AUT on-line scholarship application portal. Applicants must upload to their application: •A written statement outlining (1) which business school the applicant has been accepted into and why they chose that school; (2) how the international exchange experience will benefit the applicant; (3) the financial circumstances that would make it difficult to undertake an overseas exchange; and (4) the ability to fund the balance of the costs associated with the exchange if their application is successful (a one semester exchange generally incurs a cost of $10,000- $12,000 depending on the destination). Applicants must nominate two referees through the portal; referees will be contacted to provide a reference statement through the portal.
