Try this, always worked for me,
import os
import sys
# assuming this file resides at the same directory at settings file
PROJECT_FOLDER = os.path.abspath(os.path.dirname(__file__))
UPPER_PATH = os.path.abspath(PROJECT_FOLDER + "/../")
sys.path.append(UPPER_PATH)
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = "project_name.settings"
"""
At this point, you can do anything with django, as django setting module
environment variable is set
and your project is in pythonpath
