Welcome University of Tasmania Students
CISaustralia works closely with the University of Tasmania to deliver quality experiences and outcomes for students seeking to study overseas as a part of their degree. CISaustralia signed a formal agreement with the University of Tasmania (29 July 2016) to ensure student safety and programs are of the highest standard.
All UTAS students should apply for programs directly with CISaustralia.
We strongly recommend students contact the Learning Abroad Office to discuss your study plan, course approval, financial assistance, and pre-departure.

Pre-Approved Programs for University of Tasmania Students
The following programs have been pre-approved for academic credit by University of Tasmania. To check your eligibility for academic credit, please contact the UTAS Abroad office, your Faculty Advisor or Course Convenor. CISaustralia strongly recommends that you have any overseas courses pre-approved for academic credit before you depart for your program. Documentation that may be useful are the course name, course code, course description and syllabus (all available from the CISaustralia website). Contact a CISaustralia Advisor if any questions.
All CISaustralia programs have been pre-approved for unspecified elective credit – please complete the course approval process, to ensure you are able to receive credit back towards your degree.
Financial Support
OS-HELP is a generous Australian Government funding initiative and is one of the most progressive funding opportunities in the world for university students! Eligible students can access funds to assist them with paying for some – or all – of their approved overseas program costs.
2023 OS-HELP funding amounts:
- Up to $7,348 – for studies outside Asia
- Up to $8,817 – for studies within Asia
- Up to $9,989 – for studies within Asia + Asian language studies
OS-HELP is administered by your Australian University. If you are interested in taking advantage of this funding opportunity you will need to submit an OS-HELP application directly to your University.
If you have any questions about OS-HELP, please contact your CISaustralia Program Advisor.
