• 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.
