The New Colombo Plan (NCP) Scholarship Program provides funding to support Australian undergraduate students' participation in study, internships, mentorships, practicums and research in 40 host locations across the Indo-Pacific region.
The program is open to Australian university undergraduates aged 18 to 28. Undergraduates aged 28 and over may be eligible to participate in certain circumstances.
The NCP Mobility Program offers short-term mobility grants, available for certain faculty-led short-term programs and semester grants, available for one full semester of study.
Applications are open to ACU students and supported by ACU Global Learning.
Discuss your wish for an overseas adventure early with your course coordinator. Most students can study abroad for a semester, but there may be some restrictions depending on your course and its units, as well as accreditation and placement requirements. Your course coordinator can provide further advice on your international study options.
For more information on exchange partners, check out the list of our active Student Exchange International Partnerships.
A semester exchange is not currently possible. There are not enough units available in these courses for you to study abroad for a full semester. However, you may be able to undertake a short-term international study experience.
Eligible ACU students participating in an approved international learning experience may apply for the Vice-Chancellor and President's Learning Abroad Grant of up to A$2,500 to assist in the costs of undertaking study overseas.
OS-HELP loans may be available to provide financial assistance for eligible Commonwealth-supported students to undertake part of their course overseas.
