Funding Your Experience
WelcomeStudying overseas doesn’t have to be out of reach. Many Lawgistics students fund their program through government grants, university funding and student loans specifically designed to support international study, internships and professional placements.
Your first step is simple:
Speak with your University Learning Abroad or Global Mobility Office.
Funding options vary between universities, but many students are surprised by how much support is available.
New Colombo Plan
Many Australian universities offer New Colombo Plan (NCP) grants for eligible students undertaking internships in the Indo-Pacific region.
The NCP is a flagship Australian Government initiative aimed at strengthening Australia’s relationships across Asia through:
Education
Professional exchange
Long-term people-to-people connections
To be eligible, students must typically be:
Enrolled in a degree program for academic credit
Approved by their university’s Learning Abroad or Faculty Office
Availability and eligibility vary by university, so students should check directly with their campus Learning Abroad team.
OS-HELP
OS-HELP is a Commonwealth Government loan available to eligible undergraduate and postgraduate students enrolled in a Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) who wish to complete part of their studies overseas.
Students may access up to two OS-HELP loans over the duration of their degree (not within the same six-month period)
Loan amounts are indexed annually to reflect inflation and cost of living
OS-HELP applications are managed directly through your university. Each institution has its own process, timelines and eligibility criteria.
Who to Contact at Your University
