The Endeavour Awards is the Australian Government’s merit-based scholarship program providing Americans the chance to study, research or develop professionally in Australia (Sydney Harbor Bridge, pictured left). The Postgraduate Awards will cover up to two years for a master’s degree and 3.5 years for a PhD.

You must have completed your undergraduate degree before applying for an Endeavor Postgraduate Award.

And just in case you’re wondering what a referee is, that’s what many Americans call a reference. So your three referee reports can be from professors, advisors or instructors familiar with your recent academic work and achievements.

Other useful information can be found in the Frequently Asked Questions section.

The online application is due July 31 for the 2011 round.
