There are two categories of fee supports available to Griffith College applicants:
Griffith College Bursary is a fee support awarded to all international applicants who are offered a place on a Griffith College programme. The bursary varies per programme of study, and campus.
Academic Merit Scholarship is an additional scholarship which is offered to international applicants who demonstrate a strong academic performance at the time of application. Scholarships are awarded to applicants at the time of admission to Griffith College and are applicable in each stage of study, where learners progress from one stage of a programme to the next.

Sibling Discount
If a second or subsequent sibling registers at Griffith College as an International Student, they will receive a 10% Sibling Discount. This will be applied to the net tuition fees (i.e tuition fees minus any scholarships and bursaries awarded). Where the first sibling is still a student of Griffith College, they will also be eligible for the same sibling discount on any registrations going forward. No sibling discount will be applicable retrospectively. |
