Australia has become a popular destination for higher education as the quality of its tertiary education has improved dramatically in recent years. Pakistani students also appear to be enthusiastic about studying in Australia, the world's third top study destination. As a result, many Pakistani students seek out Australian Scholarships for Pakistani Students, which are available to international students seeking bachelor's, master's, and PhD degrees in Australia. Many Australian Scholarships are available for Pakistani students, and the awards are determined by the applicant's merit and eligibility for the Australian Scholarship they are seeking for. To be eligible for Australian scholarships for Pakistani students, you do not need to take any qualifying tests.

The only language test which overseas students may have to sit for is the IELTS to demonstrate their English language proficiency to Australian embassy. The Pakistani Higher Education Commission (HEC) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with a number of prestigious Australian universities for overseas students. This agreement was formed in February 2016 to provide Australian scholarships to Pakistani students seeking to study at institutions such as Edith Cowan University, University of Melbourne, University of Wollongong, and others in Australia.

For the next five years, these universities have decided to give more than 15 Postgraduate tuition fee AustralianScholarships for Pakistani Students per year, which means there is a total of 75 Australian scholarships available to Pakistani students in five years. Several HEC International Scholarships Programmes award HEC Australian Scholarships for Pakistani Students in collaboration with the aforesaid top Academic institutions. Those who want to apply for the Australian Scholarships for Pakistani Students must visit the Pakistani HEC’s official website to stay updated with the details of these scholarships and other financial awards.
