Applications for Round 6 of the RRES Program are now open for those students commencing study in 2022.

Over 1000 scholarships are available this year, until fully allocated.

Rural and Regional Enterprise Scholarships (RRES)

The Rural and Regional Enterprise Scholarships (RRES) program was announced in 2016 to help Australians in regional and remote areas to access higher education. It supports people studying from Certificate IV through to PhD level.

Over 4,000 students have received scholarship funding since the program’s first round which commenced in 2018.

Scholarships support flexible study arrangements, and are available to eligible students:

  • commencing a new course of study in 2022
  • studying on campus, online or via distance education
  • studying from six months full-time up to eight years part-time

Eligible students may receive up to $18,000 each (e.g. for a full-time, four-year qualification). Shorter, part-time qualifications are paid on a pro rata basis. An extra $500 is also available to support an internship.
