Travel grants

Think exchange is out of your reach? Think again! When you submit your application, you will automatically be considered for a range of travel grants that can make your exchange more affordable.

To be eligible for a travel grant, you must:

• have a course weighted average of greater than or equal to 65 (60–64.9 will be considered under exceptional circumstances)
• study overseas for a minimum of one semester/trimester (depending on your course)

Please note: there is no guarantee that you will receive funding. You must not rely on these grants to fund your exchange.
